About this title: "The Vampire Chronicles" continue. With the body of Lestat lying comatose nearby, 500-year-old Armand, first introduced in "Interview with the Vampire", tells the story of his life: his childhood in Istanbul, his enslavement, both sexual and vampiric, to the ancient vampire Marius, and his devotion to his non-vampire children.

"ah@ here we get to know armand's story, one of the most interesting vampires in the ann rice chronicles. a more in depht and classic narration by armand makes it a aweosme book. dont let antonio bandera's look foold you in "interview with the vampire" armand's much younger than that! and loved marius!!!"
"Una historia aburrida, que no despega nunca quizás porque no hay un hilo argumental que lleve la historia, quizás porque los personajes son contradictorios, débiles y poco interesantes, quizás porque hay una combinación de todo esto. El conflicto religioso de Armand/Amadeo/Andrei no tiene ni pies ni cabeza y sus cambios de personalidad son tan violentos que resultan incomprensibles. La única razón por la que le doy dos estrellas en lugar de una es porque Anne Rice sabe muchísimo de historia, arte y arquitectura, y eso se trasluce en sus libros. Su recreación de la Venecia de fines del siglo XV es maravillosa y sus escenarios son soberbios. Sin embargo, la descripción de personajes es realmente patética... Ya estoy aburrido de que cada vampiro es más "bello", "angelical", "hermoso" y "poderoso" que el anterior. Y (SPOILER) estoy hasta la coronilla de que cada vez que introducen un personaje humano interesante, lo transformen en vampiro."
"Armand is my favorite vampire, he is so fragil and childish, everytime armand apeared in anne rice books a bit more about him was reveled :) and he really had a tough life but in the end he was saved with his death by the hands of marius... ahh armand was made at the image of bjorn an actor in the movie death in venice :)"
"I LOVED THIS ONE. It is my favorite of the vampire books. I know saying that is enough to take away any ~*literary cred*~ I might have had, but idgaf. Armand had a great cameo in Interview, and getting his backstory was actually satisfying and not "what, no, why didn't you leave him as ~*mysterious*~ because your explanation sucks", as these things usually go."
