Official Score = 3 Devils[/caption]You know over all I am going to say that Anne Rice's vampire novel series maybe one of the most prolific vampire novel series of all time... (That's right... I said, even more so then the god damn piece of shit, 'Twilight' series that helped destroy vampire movies for now!)
The reason why Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles are so good, is because even though each one has it's own individual and distinct story lines, they all paint an over all picture that spans centuries, that is enthralling, and will keep you on the edge of your seat, and your face stuck in a book for almost the entire time that you are reading the novels.
'Memnoch: The Devil' (1995) is definitely one of them!

A truly awesome novel![/caption]This book I would say was almost directly inspired by Dante's legendary poem, 'The Divine Comedy', you see this novel tells of how Lestat is essentially taken off of Earth and offered a job by the devil who is calling himself, 'Memnoch'.
Now during this story it takes place as Memnoch is leading Lestat through the history of the war between heaven and hell (based on the warped perspective of Memnoch...)
During this time, Lestat, (who is watching with an observers eye), has to make his way out of the clutches of, 'Memnoch', and when he does so, he comes out of it feeling completely different, having witnessed certain religiously significant moments in history!
And when he finds out the truth of it all, this will drive Lestat in a direction in which he may never make it out of!
In the end, this book is freaking unbelievably awesome... A true comeback after the debacle of, 'The Tale Of The Body Thief'!
