Answer 2

.Hi ..What do I think?:) ..
Books about Lestat tend to be well written, but not my favorites... This book is an exception to that rule. ..I understand why Lestat is in it, but the story could have done just fine without him... It's not really about him... It's about the question, "What if everything you've been told about the devil held only a hint of truth, and the real truth was that he's on our side?" That's the case Memnoch presents for himself, but in the end, the question isn't really answered.... Which is really just fine...:) .. People don't want answers about that kind of thing... They want their own beliefs, as illustrated by some of the minor characters in the story .... :))
Kind regards!:)

Answer 3

I remember when I read the book (when it first came out) it was under attack by many religious figures and churches for the way the book portrayed God as being flawed and that Jesus sacrifice was insufficient. I really didn't understand all the fuss at the time i personally thought it was just a book but i guess if people can't find something to complain about they will make stuff up.

Answer 4

i didn't think it was as good as some of the other books. don't get me wrong, i thought it was good. my fav was the vampire lestat. have you read her sleeping beauty chronicles??
