Publisher Description

In her new novel, perennial bestseller Anne Rice fuses her two uniquely seductive strains of narrative -- her Vampire legend and her lore of the Mayfair witches -- to give us a world of classic deep-south luxury and ancestral secrets.

Welcome to Blackwood Farm: soaring white columns, spacious drawing rooms, bright, sun-drenched gardens, and a dark strip of the dense Sugar Devil Swamp. This is the world of Quinn Blackwood, a brilliant young man haunted since birth by a mysterious doppelgänger, “Goblin,” a spirit from a dream world that Quinn can’t escape and that prevents him from belonging anywhere. When Quinn is made a Vampire, losing all that is rightfully his and gaining an unwanted immortality, his doppelgänger becomes even more vampiric and terrifying than Quinn himself.

As the novel moves backwards and forwards in time, from Quinn’s boyhood on Blackwood Farm to present day New Orleans, from ancient Athens to 19th-century Naples, Quinn seeks out the legendary Vampire Lestat in the hope of freeing himself from the spectre that draws him inexorably back to Sugar Devil Swamp and the explosive secrets it holds.

A story of youth and promise, of loss and the search for love, of secrets and destiny, Blackwood Farm is Anne Rice at her mesmerizing best.

Amazing!

Absolutely my favorite book in the series. Amazing author, amazing read.

Horrible

Years ago when this "novel" was first released I was excited that a new book in Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles had been published. However upon reading this book I was disgusted. If gay porn is your thing, then by all means pick this "book" up, but it's certainly not for everyone.

As someone who's favorite book is the Vampire Lestat and who feels the first 5 books in this series are true classics this book was a severe letdown. I'll never buy a new book by Anne Rice ever again after this read however. It's truly repulsive.

Enchanted

I love this book - I just finished reading it for the third time. What a unique and engrossing story, I never wanted it to end. Tarquin Blackwood is one of my favorite characters in all her Chronicles and I was completely thrilled that this book crosses over with the Mayfair family (Witching Hour). Smart, engrossing and with unique characters you’ll absolutely love - read this one for sure!
