Description
FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE COMES THE SWEEPING SIXTH INSTALLMENT OF THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES.
Armand; eternally young, with the face of a Botticelli angel.
From the Kiev Rus of his boyhood, in a ruined city under Mongol dominion, to ancient Constantinople, where Tartar raiders sell him into slavery, Armand's story has been nothing short of magnificent.
And it is in a magnificent palazzo in the Venice of the Renaissance that we see him emotionally and intellectually enthral the great vampire Marius, a mysterious and reclusive painter who will bestow upon Armand the gift of vampiric blood.
And in luxury and elegance, of ambush, fire and devil worship, Armand is forced to choose between his twilight immortality and the salvation of his immortal soul.
Armand, who first appeared in all his dark glory more than twenty years ago in the now-classic Interview with the Vampire, the first of The Vampire Chronicles, the novel that established its author worldwide as a prolific storyteller and creator of magical realms.
