About this product

Product Information

In her mesmerizing new novel, the author of The Vampire Chronicles and the saga of the Mayfair Witches demonstrates once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling and the creation of myth and magic. Here, in a magnificent tale of sorcery and the occult, she makes real for us a hitherto unexplored world of witchcraft. At the center is the beautiful, unconquerable witch Merrick. She is a descendant of the gens de couleur libres, a society of New Orleans octoroons and quadroons steeped in the lore and ceremony of voodoo, who reign in the shadowy world where African and French--the dark and the white--intermingle. Her ancestors are the great Mayfair witches, of whom she knows nothing--and from whom she inherits the power and the magical knowledge of a Circe. Into this exotic realm comes David Talbot--hero, storyteller, adventurer, almost-mortal vampire, visitor from another dark realm. It is he who recounts Merrick's haunting tale--a tale that takes us from the New Orleans of past and present to the jungles of Guatemala, from the Maya ruins of a century ago to ancient civilizations not yet explored. Anne Rice's richly told novel weaves an irresistible story of two worlds: the witches' world and the vampires' world, where magical powers and otherworldly fascinations are locked together in a dance of seduction, death, and rebirth.

    Hi Bill! Firstly, the seller worked with me on the price, as the shipping was high. Great communication. Shipping time good. This purse is "brandy new" unbelievably soft...nicer in person. Sealed plastic clear bag, bubble over it all the way around; then clean/taped brown paper taped, in well sealed box, fit perfectly. Mint shape. Preferred metal hardware, this is not; notwithstanding, would purchase from this seller again๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’ž

  • Rice Combines Series to Give the Old Top a New Spin

    Anne Rice breathed new life into her Vampire Chronicles with her novel "Merrick," featuring three of her most popular characters--the vampires Lestat, Louis and the dead child vampire Claudia--and introduced them to the world of her Mayfair Witches series. Merrick Mayfair is a sultry, hard-drinking beauty whose witchcraft plays a prominent role throughout the story arc. Louis, who made Claudia a vampire in Rice's classic "Interview with the Vampire," brings about the collision of the two universes. He is obsessed with raising Claudia's ghost to make amends and seek guidance from the great beyond. Vampire David Talbot asks Merrick to call Claudia's spirit in order to assuage Louis's guilt, but Talbot winds up in the grip of an obsession with the witch. After she reads his palm, he ...

  • The Mayfair Witches

    This book, which is part of The Vampire Chronicles, is another work of brilliance for Anne Rice. As is typical of her writing, you become involved with the characters. A great thing about this book is that you are introduced to the Mayfair Witches, which prepares you to move on. Once you finish The Vampire Chronicles, you can move onto the Mayfair Witches stories. These character are as rich and deep as all of Rioe's vampires. Be prepared to be engrossed. Be prepared to make new friends and to be reaquainted with some old ones.
