"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
"From the Paperback edition.""
