I've been an avid fan of Anne Rice's books since I was in junior high, since I love her style of writing and of course her gothic themes (vampires, demons, witches). Lasher is the second novel of the Lives of the Mayfair Witches trilogy. The...” see full review » see other reviews » |

That, and painstakingly detailed descriptions of Louisiana architecture.”

I mean, the idea of having an entity lurking in your home, who can actually get you pregnant is disturbing. Nonetheless, the book found a good place in my heart. Lasher is such a character and I know it's been years since I've read this book but I still remember some of the lines. That's how good it is.”

This is also a sequel to the Mayfair Witches, and I think the next book is Taltos. ”
