Armand- eternally young, with the face of a Bottocelli angel. Armand, who first appeared in all his dark glory more than twenty years ago in the now classic Interview with the Vampire. Now Armand retells the story of his damned life. Across the centuries to the Kiev Rus of his boyhood- a ruined city under Mongol dominion- and to ancient Constantinople, where Tartar raiders sell him into slavery. And in a magnificent palazzo in the Venice of the Renaisance Armand is amazed by the great vampire Marius, who masquerades among humankind as a mysterious, reclusive painter and who will bestow upon Armand the gift of vampiric blood. In the climax of the novel, Armand moves through scenes of luxury and elegance, of ambush, fire, and devil worship to nineteenth-century Paris and today's New Orleans. This eternally vulnerable and romantic hero is forced to choose between his twilight immortality and the salvation of his immortal soul.
