My favorite Anne Rice novel. Outstanding. It weighs in at over 1000 pages, but I wouldn't have minded it being longer. ( )

Definitely one of my all time top 5 books. Gets quite detailed with the family lines and such but it's one of those books that you could read over and over again. Definitely worth it! ( )

My favorite book ever. Just started reading it for the second time. Although it's a long book, you won't be able to put it down. You begin to feel you know all these women involved in the story and you get addicted. ( )

This book is LOOOONNNGGG. Don't pick up unless you like very in depth and lengthy bio novels. The "witchy" element isn't overly done and everything is epic in scope and detail. Rice could describe a sidewalk and make it like poetry. ( )

My favorite Anne Rice book. A fabulous character and an epic story with some of the best romantic chemistry between her and her man.... an edge of your seat thriller, too.... wow. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com (ISBN 0345384466, Mass Market Paperback)

In this engrossing and hypnotic tale of witchcraft and the occult spanning four centuries, we meet a great dynasty of witches--a family given to poetry and incest, to murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is haunted by a powerful, dangerous and seductive being.
