Synopsis
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - In another feat of hypnotic storytelling, Anne Rice continues the extraordinary Vampire Chronicles that began with the now classic Interview with the Vampire and continued with The Vampire Lestat and The Queen of the Damned. Lestat speaks. Vampire-hero, enchanter, seducer of mortals. For centuries he has been a courted prince in the dark and flourishing universe of the living dead. Lestat is alone. And suddenly all his vampire rationale--everything he has come to believe and feel safe with--is called into question. In his overwhelming need to destroy his doubts and his loneliness, Lestat embarks on the most dangerous enterprise he has undertaken in all the danger-haunted years of his long existence. The Tale of the Body Thief is told with the unique--and mesmerizing--passion, power, color, and invention that distinguish the novels of Anne Rice., NATIONAL BESTSELLER * In another feat of hypnotic storytelling, Anne Rice continues the extraordinary Vampire Chronicles that began with the now classic Interview with the Vampire and continued with The Vampire Lestat and The Queen of the Damned.

    Packaging was good, price was alright, I was told in a message that the expiration date was in 2026, but it's 2025. Otherwise, the item is was described. Shipping was pretty slow.

    I received the mugs quickly, safely packaged, BUT they were not Golden Retrievers but Yellow Labs. The seller immediately agreed when seeing a comparison photo. I then received a shipping label, sent the mugs back and promptly had the money refunded. Disappointed about the mugs but this was a very good buying experience. Kudos to the seller and to eBay.

    Best wrapping n packing ever. Item exactly as described. Fast boxed and safe shipping. Great value. I like these vintage Pyrex dishes. This seller takes pride in his merchandise by how carefully and clean everything was. I’m going to keep coming back because this was a great transaction. Thank you.
