Overview
Inmortal y sediento de sangre humana, Lestat ansía descubrir el secreto de su inmortalidad. Eso le llevará a recorrer un variado espectro de lugares y entornos sociales que hace de la suya una apasionante biografía: desde el lascivo París del siglo XVIII hasta la Roma de Augusto y la Bretaña de los druidas; desde el Egipto satánico de la prehistoria hasta el mundo frenético de las estrellas del rock... prácticamente toda la historia. «Soy el vampiro Lestat. Soy inmortal. Más o menos. La luz del sol, el calor prolongado de un fuego intenso..., tales cosas podrían acabar conmigo. Pero también podrían no hacerlo.»Cuando estoy sediento de sangre, mi aspecto produce verdadero horror: la piel contraída, las venas como sogas sobre los contornos de mis huesos... Pero ya no permito que tal cosa suceda, y el único indicio de que no soy humano son las uñas de los dedos.»
