Merrick

Last Saturday, I finished the book I started this summer : 'Merrick', the seventh book of the Anne Rice's 'Vampire Chronicles'.

In this one, the main character is David Talbot. His first apparence was in the fourth novel, 'The Tale of the body Thief'. He tells the obsession of Louis of invoking the ghost of Claudia, the kid vampire of the first novel. For that, David needs the help of Merrick, a very powerful witch.

From my point of view, this is a great novel that tells a different story not centered on the essence of the vampire, but it talks about the feelings of a relationship between humans, and how they persist when the human nature has gone. We meet another kind of vampire, the one with an old human soul.

If you like a typical vampire novel, this one isn't for you. But, if you look for something different with vampires on it, and grocery, this is for you. Also, if you like the series 'The Mayfair Withes', Merrick is one of them, so you can't miss this book.
