Blood Communion: A Tale of Prince Lestat

In this book, Lestat is settling into his role. It's a difficult one for him because he's rebellious by nature. Still, he must do what is best for his Court, which means facing the vampires that threaten its stability. Some old and some new characters threaten this stability. Unfortunately, with threat with new characters goes nowhere and feels just like a useless plot device to get Lestat to New Orleans again. However, the storyline with Rhoshamandes is finally dealt with after two books (and most of the bad things that happen in this book could have been avoided if only Lestat listened to his court in Prince Lestat, but alas).
A lot of oldest characters feel brushed under a rug, just so some younger vampires could have a chance to appear. It is disappointing that by the end of the book most of the characters do not appear, and it is not shown to the reader where these characters live, with who they end up and so on.
However, it is nice to finally see Lestat come to terms with his morals and his position. Finally, after so many books he can just live having a family who cares about him, and most importantly, by having Louis by his side.
Contrary to many of Anne Rice's books in The Vampire Chronicles series, this book ends up on a very high note.
