 Rating:  - Wonderful series!I loved this series of books. Anne Rice tells a great story. I like the historical references in addition to the fascinating story line. Rating: - Vampire Chronicles ReviewVery good and fast service from Amazon and the Vampire Chronicles are great! Excellent writing with well organized stories. Entertaining.

She recovers nicely in other stories! Overall a great series if you like vampires. Nice to get them all in one shot!! Recommended.
