I have read the entire Vampire Chronicles and Armand was by far the best and most interesting character. The story line really opens up the entire story line that was very bleakly mentioned in the Interview with the Vampire book & movie. Armand is by far the most intriguing vampire whose story has ever been told.

Not as good as the original vampire chronicles, but not a bad read. I liked finally knowing Armand's entire history.

I think this book is my favorite. I absolutely love Armand so I enjoyed reading all of his story. It all sort of emotions in a sexy wrapper. If you liked what you read about Armand in tid bits of the other books you won't be let down when you read this and if you haven't already you should also read Marius' story, 'Blood and Gold.'

The Story of Armand, A bit slower than most of Anne Rice's novels but a story full of twists and turns

If you like Ann Rice, You'll like this.
If you are new to the vampire stuff, start with Lestat or Louis, or you'll be a bit lost.

You will find yourself liking and disliking Armand, I think because Antonio played him in the movie, I have a soft spot for him. Interesting to learn his history and motives. A really good read.

I'll admit this is the only one of the series I have read but this sort of vampire book just doesn't grab my sttention and keep it ! I was bored ! I got this book as a gift and really wanted to enjoy it ! I did like it but it wasn't that interesting !

The Vampire Armand, where to begin? Firstly, Annes writing was as always impeccable and carrying you alongside the main character throughout the story. I was glad to be back in the world of her vampires. However, call me biased, but Armand left something to be desired in me. Throughout most of the story I found him to be almost like a brat. Keep in mind I just finished reading Blood and gold, Mariuss story, and fell utterly in love with him. So anyone who did not think the complete best of Marius was a brat in my eyes. Armand wasnt so terrible at the end, I wont spoil the story, but he seemed to have almost redeemed himself in my eyes. All in all, it was nice to hear his story, I did enjoy myself, I just did not finish the book with a longing to carry Armand with me. I would recommend reading just to hear his tale.

A bit slow and depressing but worth the read if you stick to the series.
