A Vampire Chronicles novella from the internationally best-selling Anne Rice. In a cafe in modern-day Paris, in the aftermath of a fresh kill, the fearless and beautiful Pandora begins to tell her tale of treachery, vengeance and love stretching across two millennia. As a young mortal in Imperial Rome in the time of Caesar Augustus, Pandora was first introduced to the blood-tainted cult of Isis. Later, in exile in Antioch, she was drawn even further into the dark, ancient rites. Now, looking back across the centuries, Pandora decides to return once more to New Orleans.

Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Despite the fact that he can't stand the sight of blood, he works as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police. But Dexter also has a secret hobby: He is an accomplished serial killer. So far he's killed 36 people and has never been caught because he knows exactly how to hide the evidence.

Embarrasingly bad...
I absolutely adored the previous older vampire books from Anne, but this book almost makes me not want to read any more of her newer stuff... Completely without charm this one, Lestat is (never thought it possible) lame, and the reader..! This Richard E.Grant is absolutely overdoing the voicing, making even the simplest sentences sound like dramatic action, to the point of making it almost hilarious when the book`s mood is mostly serius. He is also faulty of the vampires sounding like angry grizzly bears 90% of the time, plus making the erotic scenes so embarrasing to listen that it is almost unbearably akward to manage through them. So far the worst audiobook I have ever downloaded, and since it really holds nothing important story-wise, I recommend people so shamelessly skip it and move to Armand.

Book fans will be disappointed
My bad. I totally missed the part about this download being abridged. I discovered it too late, after realizing several good parts of the book were missing. I've read the harcover many times and it was evident the Audible story had been shortened. The narrator was an overacting dork, growling or yelling his lines throughout the book. It was perfectly obnoxious. Why didn't they stick with Simon Vance, who narrated the first three books in the series? Caveat emptor.

Not What I Thought I Was Purchasing...
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
The book itself, yes. The audible version... No. I didn't realize it was abridged and that was my fault for not paying attention to what I was purchasing. I was trying to go back and forth between my book and the audible and got all excited thinking that I was so far ahead in the book since I was listening to the audible in the car and while conducting errands. What I didn't realize was that I was listening to an abridged version which means I have missed quite possibly a lot of really interesting pieces in the actual book. Very disappointing.
Had I not been going back and forth with the actual book this audible gets a 3. The voice acting was decent and it gives you the gist of the story in a little over 2 hours. Just sad there isn't an unabridged version.
If you’ve listened to books by Anne Rice before, how does this one compare?
N/A
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The voice of Lestat was great, but the voice for other characters were eh. The French accent for Lestat was horrible. I couldn't help but laugh every time he spoke with the accent.
Could you see The Tale of the Body Thief being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Yes. I'm not sure.
Any additional comments?
Please make unabridged version to the Vampire Chronicle books so those who like do to what I do (i.e. go back and forth between the actual book and audible) can do so.

Over all, it is a pretty good story that moved very fast because it was abridged. If you want to get a brief synopsis on the story, this is the way to go but if you want the whole story, you are better off to read the entire book.

ABRIDGED!!!
Abridged! Why would anyone want an abridged Anne Rice novel!? Wish I'd seen that before I bought this book and the one after it in the series. I Goggle'd around and couldn't find an unabridged version for purchase anywhere, but I did see it on YouTube. Guess I'll try that. Otherwise I've wasted 2 credits on here.

What could Anne Rice have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Nothing. It wasn't her fault.

Good to listen too, but old copy
First let me say that this had to have been copied off of a tape because there were times when the narration would slow down or there would be extra noise in the background. Don't let this, however, stop you from listening to Richard E. Grant's great narration of this story.
You can still listen to this tale even if you haven't read/listened to the other vampire tales. I read this years ago, since I'm in college I don't always have time to read a book, so choose to listen to the story again. I still enjoyed Lestat's new venture at discovering he has a human side, even if it was forced upon him. There are new characters introduced and some you'll recognize from past vampire tales.
Have fun with this and hope you continue on with the other tales (though if you want it unabridged, read the books).
