Synopsis

With this novel Anne Rice creates a new world every bit as mesmeric as her vampire world, and a new hero, Azriel, every bit as seductive and ambivalent as Lestat. Born almost 2,500 years ago to a Jewish family in exile, Azriel's restless spirit can be summoned by whoever holds the key to the casket of his golden bones. Called forth in the present day to witness and avenge a brutal murder on Fifth A venue, he is caught up in a dizzyingly malevolent plot to destabilise the world.As rich, terrifying, sensual and violent as any novel by Anne Rice, Servant of the Bones conjures up over two thousand years of Jewish history and penetrates the mysteries of evil and redemption, life and after-life.

Industry reviews
"To say that Anne Rice's strengths--most evident in her early work--are essentially the slender ones of a Gothic novelist is not at all to condescend. She has a real gift for rendering psychologically charged mood and melancholy atmosphere, and an old-fashioned penchant for chiaroscuro characterization and intricate if sometimes improbable plotting."
New York Times Book Review - Daniel Mendelsohn (08/11/1996)

Questions & Comments

Do you have "Anne Rices's" "The Mummy" ? I love her she is a wonderful author. Have you ever read "Wilbur Smith" ? especially the series he writes about "Taita" and "Egypt" ?

No, I don't think that I do but I will look. I am a vampire fanatic from before being a vampire fanatic was cool :-) Starting with Salem's Lot, that I read years ago. I just couldn't get into the Interview Series. I also have Rice's witch series on hardback that I'm going to give a try...we'll see. As for Wilbur Smith, I have not heard of but I will definately check them out! Thanks!
