A Vampire Chronicles novella from the internationally bestselling author Anne Rice

In a cafe in modern-day Paris, in the aftermath of a fresh kill, the fearless and beautiful Pandora begins to tell her tale of treachery, vengeance and love stretching across two millennia. As a young mortal in Imperial Rome in the time of Caesar Augustus, Pandora was first introduced to the blood-tainted cult of Isis. Later, in exile in Antioch, she was drawn even further into the dark, ancient rites. Now looking back across the centuries, Pandora decides to return once more to New Orleans, to find the love of her early life, Marius, and to see once again the Vampire Lestat...

Industry Reviews

"This is Rice in top romantic form." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"SEDUCTIVE... [RICE] HAS RETURNED TO THE SOURCE OF HER BEST WORK, her sexy and invincible vampires... Pandora is a superheroine: beautiful, of course, but also smart, fearless, independent, lusty, resourceful, and so pumped up at the end of her breathless narrative, she takes off for New Orleans, hot on the trail of Lestat and Marius." - Booklist

"EERILY VIBRANT... The title character is a highborn woman of Augustan Rome who later names herself after the Pandora of mythology, opening her own box of surprises. Sitting in a modern-day Paris cafe in the aftermath of a fresh kill, the vampire Pandora accepts the challenge of recounting her history and immediately sets to work, filling the blank pages of an elegant leatherbound notebook... A wealth of narrative twists and period detail." - The New York Times Book Review

"RICE'S MOST BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN WORK... A BOOK THAT CELEBRATES THE WONDER OF THE WORLD ON EVERY PAGE." - Raleigh News & Observer

"TANTALIZING." - Library Journal
