Es el primer título de la famosa e inquietante serie de Crónicas Vampíricas. En esta novela, Anne Rice narra la conversion de un joven de Nueva Orleans en eterno habitante de la noche. El protagonista, llevado por el sentimiento de culpabilidad que le ha causado la muerte de su hermano menor, anhela transformarse en un ser maldito. Sin embargo, ya desde el inicio de su vida sobrenatural, se siente invadido por los sentimientos más humanos, una pasión no exenta de dependencia sexual y psicológica
I'd read this gem when it came out in paperback, and I was 12 years old. I loved it so much, I did an except of the interview as a skit in camp that summer.
Funnily enough, as a teen, I think I somehow skipped reading the very first novel in the Chronicles and just hopped around in the series. So it was cool to read the beginning. It was much darker than I expected, but I enjoyed the tension, romance, angst, and longing.
I was really rooting for Louis and Armand.
