About the book

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The creator of fantastic universes of vampires and witches takes us now into the world of Isaiah and Jeremiah, and the destruction of Solomon's Temple, to tell the story of Azriel, Servant of the Bones.

He is ghost, genii, demon, angel--pure spirit made visible. He pours his heart out to us as he journeys from an ancient Babylon of royal plottings and religious upheavals to Europe of the Black Death and on to the modern world. There he finds himself, amidst the towers of Manhattan, in confrontation with his own human origins and the dark forces that have sought to condemn him to a life of evil and destruction.

I am a very big fan of Anne Rice and really like her writing style in general. I loved all books from The Vampire Chronicles (including the new ones), The Mayfair Witches and also Stand alones like "Ramses the Damned". But with Servant of the Bones I had a hard time somehow. It took very long until the story got going, then came the transformation of Azriel into the Servant of the Bones and it got a little better but then again the story just slowed down again and wandered off the main path without any visible direction at first. In the last 50 - 60 pages it finally became clear what the big scheme in the story was. But the way to get there was tiring and there were many times when I just had to put the book away because it did not get me. For the idea of the book and the writing style I would give 2 out of 5 stars plus 1 extra star because of my admiration for Anne Rice.
