Three of Anne Rice's most popular characters, the vampires Lestat, Louis, and Claudia, are introduced to the world of her Mayfair Witches series in this fascinating history that traverses between New Orleans past and present, the jungles of Guatemala, secular Mayan ruins, and the hearts of civilizations not yet discovered by man. Merrick is a beautiful descendent of "les gens de couleur libres," a voodoo sect that surged from New Orleans's mulattos, born of African women and their French colonists. But Merrick does not yet know that she has inherited the extraordinary powers that made her ancestors, the Mayfair Witches, so famous in centuries past.

Another hit by Anne Rice
David Talbot finds himself drawn between his mortal life and his new life as a vampire when he finds a woman who infatuated him as a mortal and drives him mad as a vampire. This is a great book that describes the voodoo that is in use even today in New Orleans and other places in the south where things never change much. Merrick is taken in by the Talamasca when she is a young child due to the death of her Grandma and her powers as a witch. Yet again Anne Rice puts out a good trip into her world.
