One Way TrippeOne Way Trippe: Edit: after starting my second time reading this book, the red paint is scratching off the cover letters. I'm so disappointed because I take very good care of my books.

So nice to have 3 books in one. And the book itself is very handsome. Shipping from the UK was fast. Time to refresh my memory inbetween seasons of Interview with the Vampire, since I haven't read any of these books in over 30 years.

B: I got the book in 2 days i believe, it’s overall a great book. I was a little disappointed that the cover is more goldish rather then pure silver. The book itself was a little damaged on the corners. But for the price it’s absolutely worth it. The story is very well told.

Teek D: One of my favourites from Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles series.

If you like vampires, you'll love this. Unless you like Twilight...then maybe skip this series. (Sparkly vampires...pfffft.) Anne Rice is a true storyteller who can paint a picture and stir up emotion with her words. It's so refreshing to read a well-written supernatural novel with some depth and grit to it.

I highly recommend reading the Vampire Chronicle series in order. The series jumps around a lot and crosses paths with another of Rice's series, so here's the order I'd recommend (I was a nerdy librarian's assistant as a kid, so I know what I'm talking about):

Interview With The Vampire
The Vampire Lestat
Queen of The Damned
Tale of The Body Thief
Memnoch The Devil
Pandora
Vampire Armand
Vittorio The Vampire (This was the only one I might skip. It's different characters than the rest of the series and is my least favourite)
Merrick
Blood And Gold
The Witching Hour
Lasher
Taltos
Blackwood Farm
Blood Canticle
Prince Lestat
Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis

Anzabel: When I first started this review, I had all intention of rating it 5 stars. It's one of my favorite books of all time. It inspired months of obsession with Armand. The prose is amazing and beautiful, luscious and sensual. Armand spends half the book mortal, so there is more sex and exploration of relationships with those around him. I loved it, and it's one of the very few novels in my life I can bear to reread and still experience the warm fuzzy feelings and the sheer satisfaction I had felt when I first read it. I can't express enough how much I love this. The writing was addicting, and it's fulfilling to me because it's added more depth to my favorite brooding vampire (second to Louis). While there is much to love, it isn't perfect. I still *wanted* to give it a 5 star rating, though, because of the rich imagery, the character development of Armand, the exploration of relationships, and the fact that Armand didn't die in Memnoch (which I really didn't think he did, anyway. It was so low-key, I figured he probably had a change of heart at the last minute)--all of which Anne Rice handles with poise and a slight flair for the dramatic. But because of the issues I took below, I...

Melissa Brunner: Dieses Buch ist eines meiner liebsten aus den Chroniken von Anne Rice. Es schildert detailliert, wie aus dem Jungen Andrei der Vampir-Führer Armand wird. Von seinem miserablen Leben in der heutigen Ukraine entführt, geht es für Andrei über Konstantinopel nach Venedig, wo er in seinen düsteren Gedanken und dem Tode geweiht von Marius aufgespürt wird. Marius wird sein Meister und Andrei, der sich nicht an sein früheres Leben erinnern kann, wird zu Amadeo. Für die beiden beginnt eine der schönsten Zeiten ihres Lebens. Amadeo genießt sein neues Leben als Sterblicher im Venedig der Renaissance, als Schüler Marius zusammen mit anderen im Palazzo des Meisters. Doch im Vergleich zu den anderen Jungen hält Amadeo eine besondere Stellung im Herzen und im Verstand seines Meisters, wie uns detailliert beschrieben wird. Nach einer unglaublichen Tragödie werden die beiden jedoch brutal auseinander gerissen und sollen sich ein halbes Jahrtausend nicht mehr gegenüber treten. Diese Trennung hinterlässt tiefe Spuren in den Herzen beider. Für Amadeo, der nun Armand genannt wird und einen Clan von Vampiren in Paris anführt, ist es erneut eine dunkle Zeit seines Lebens. Bis eines...

BallerinaBallerina: What makes Armand so fascinating is his love-hate relationship with Lestat and Anne Rice has totally satisfied our curiosity and hunger for more about Armand in this 6th book.

When Lestat first set eyes on Armand, he saw a face that was "..shining white and perfect, the countenance of a god it seemed, a Cupid out of Caravaggio, seductive yet ethereal, with auburn hair and dark brown eyes.." and a shock came through Lestat which he felt wasn't merely because of Armand's beauty but " the astonishing innocence of his boyish face." There is always a kind of vulnerability about Armand who was rescued from his doomed brothel fate and made a vampire by the powerful Marius when he was barely a teenager. After his accidental stint of heading up an evil coven with Satino, he pleaded to go with Lestat but had to reluctantly accept Lestat's offer to take over The Theatre of the Vampires so he could understand the age he lived in through its literature, music and arts.

We have the first glimpse of their love-hate relationship when Lestat came back defeated and almost destroyed by his fledglings Louis and Claudia. He blamed Lestat for coming back to him only for help and not his...
