Cons :
_The book has little to do with the movie of 1994.
_Well after a while, the main character : Louis, ends up by being really heavy and boring. Constantly complaining. Absolutely not enterprising in anything. In short, in comparison, we admire Lestat’s energy and cynicism.
_The relationship between Claudia and Louis (who is only a child) is problematic.
Neutral point :
Louis has a gay relationship with Armand.
Pros :
_Saint Mary and other Saints are often mentioned.
Moreover, the first name of one of the characters “Madeleine” brings to mind Saint Mary Magdalene.
_The question of torment is often raised. Excellent.
_An action that travels around the world.
_Claudia and Lestat de Lioncourt are cult characters. They have been a plus in the vampire mythology.
_Several characters have purple eyes. A tribute to be saluted, because this colour is very important for Gothic people (just after the black colour).
Conclusion :
An interesting book but who could have been more tremendous.
