Welcome back to Blackwood Farm. Here are all of the
brilliantly conceived characters that make up the two
worlds of vampires and witches: Mona Mayfair, who’s come
to the farm to die and is brought into the realm of the
undead; her uncle, Julian Mayfair, guardian of the family,
determined to forever torment Lestat for what he has done
to Mona; Rowan Mayfair, brilliant neurosurgeon and witch,
who finds herself dangerously drawn to the all-powerful
Lestat; her husband, Michael Curry, hero of the Mayfair
Chronicles, who seeks Lestat’s help with the temporary
madness of his wife; Ash Templeton, a 5,000-year-old
Taltos who has taken Mona’s child; and Patsy, the country-
western singer, who returns to avenge her death at the
hands of her son, Quinn Blackwood. Delightfully, at the
book’s centre is the Vampire Lestat, once the epitome of
evil, now pursuing the transformation set in motion with
Memnoch the Devil. He struggles with his vampirism and
yearns for goodness, purity and love, as he saves Patsy’s
ghost from the dark realm of the Earthbound, uncovers the
mystery of the Taltos and unselfishly decides the fate of
his beloved Rowan Mayfair.
