Taltos: Lives of Mayfair Witches

Answers a lot of lingering questions and opens but doesn't answer new ones. The end was ok but a bit un-satisfying. Still, it's a worthy read.

Looking forward to reading this book.

For such a descriptive book it ended oddly. Perhaps Rice had said her piece and so she hurried the ending. I didn’t feel why Michael or Rowan would love Ash, nor was his feeling of betrayal explained or resolved. Never satisfied and an Odd ending. Of course it is also an an odd series and I enjoyed reading it 40 years in between reads.

Was missing the protector cover. But for the most part it's clean and no pages torn or anything.

It was as good now as when it was published. She takes me home to New Orleans. The sounds, the scents, the heat. You have to read all 3, but this one is so full of hope and promise. I wish she was alive to write another one. I will not watch the tv series. I already know that they've messed up too many details. Read the books!

But book four? Is there a book four? I will look. This book also had a problem with going astray from the main plot. I hope the last book in the series brings it all together.

Arrived fast an in perfect condition👍

Came as described and in good condition

I found it a story that turned my stomach, the fact a vampire girl being in that situation became her life destroyed having to raise a kid , looked at with eyes in her back, not given the road to the afterlife to forever, and the #me too at the start of the movie for her, when they start touching her, no matter her profession, a strong story that turned my stomach up side down, sick making, I at the audiobook almost vomitted by the story of it and both had to destroy and get it out of my home by littering it away at the garbage bin, My apologizes, but I really didn' t like the story at any at all.

Up till chapter 25 I thought it to be an incoherent and rather pointless read, bathing in a kind of small-scale irrelevance. Rice didn't seem to be able to pick the story up in a rush, and write a worthy, grand sequel to Lasher. It is well written, but only "okay" or "good". Three stars maybe.But from Chapter 25 onwards, she finds her submlimity again, when she goes into the history of the Taltos. This is truly a maginificent, spell-binding and overpowering read. THis is clearly top-popular-fiction writing for me, and deserves 5 stars.so I end up giving 4 stars.I was truly moved by the story of Ash, and the ending was also very much emotionally moving for me.Overall, I am very satisfied with how the trilogy ends. All ends are tied together with genius and with incredibly creative literary writing.In all, I liked the first three Vampire Chronicle books a bit better, but with the Mayfair witches trilogy Rice has truly written top quality books and a story that is both terribly inventive and simply a moving, fascinating and absorbing read.

Read this book some years ago, had to buy it again, dont have to say anything else, love all A ne Rice books fantastic reads

Fav author, highly recommend

Interesting book, not one of Ann Rice's best, but good, I do prefer her Vampire stories, I think the first one The Mayfair Witches was the best
