En esta segunda entrega de las �Cr�nicas Vamp�ricas� descubrimos la vida del enigm�tico Lestat, a quien conocimos en Entrevista con el vampiro.

Inmortal y sediento de sangre humana, Lestat ans�a descubrir el secreto de su inmortalidad. Eso le llevar� a recorrer un variado espectro de lugares y entornos sociales que hace de la suya una apasionante biograf�a: desde el lascivo Par�s del siglo XVIII hasta la Roma de Augusto y la Breta�a de los druidas; desde el Egipto sat�nico de la prehistoria hasta el mundo fren�tico de las estrellas del rock... pr�cticamente toda la historia. �Soy el vampiro Lestat. Soy inmortal. M�s o menos. La luz del sol, el calor prolongado de un fuego intenso..., tales cosas podr�an acabar conmigo. Pero tambi�n podr�an no hacerlo.�Cuando estoy sediento de sangre, mi aspecto produce verdadero horror: la piel contra�da, las venas como sogas sobre los contornos de mis huesos... Pero ya no permito que tal cosa suceda, y el �nico indicio de que no soy humano son las u�as de los dedos.�

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

#1 New York Times Bestselling author - Surrender to fiction's greatest creature of the night - Book II of the Vampire Chronicles

The vampire hero of Anne Rice’s enthralling novel is a creature of the darkest and richest imagination. Once an aristocrat in the heady days of pre-revolutionary France, now a rock star in the demonic, shimmering 1980s, he rushes through the centuries in search of others like him, seeking answers to the mystery of his eternal, terrifying exsitence. His is a mesmerizing story—passionate, complex, and thrilling.

“Fiercely ambitious, nothing less than a complete unnatural history of vampires.”—The Village Voice

“Brilliant . . . its undead characters are utterly alive.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Luxuriantly created and richly told.”—The Cleveland Plain Dealer
