Memnoch the Devil is largely hated in relation to the rest of Anne Rice’s novels, but is far better than people give it credit for. Large sections of it are fascinating, and the general reading experience of it is enjoyable. But I never want to read about Lestat drinking period blood from a pad ever again.
