The Mayfair Witches Series 3-Book Bundle
The Mayfair Witches Series 3-Book Bundle: Witching Hour, Lasher, Taltos | Anne Rice
4 posts | 4 read | 1 reading | 2 to read
An enchanting, hypnotic trilogy of witchcraft, adventure, and romance from the beloved author of Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat, The Mayfair Witches is a wondrous journey through the centuries, across the globe, and between the human and demonic worlds. Now all three novels in Anne Rices spellbinding series have been collected for the first time in this stunning eBook bundle: THE WITCHING HOUR LASHER TALTOS On the screened porch of a great New Orleans house, now faded, a mute and fragile woman sits rocking. She belongs to a legendary dynasty of witchesa family that is itself haunted over the ages by a dangerous and seductive being named Lasher. Their story begins in our time, with a rescue at sea. Rowan Mayfair, a brilliant neurosurgeon aware of her abilities but oblivious to her ancient line, finds the drowned body of Michael Curry off the coast of California and brings him to life. In his brief interval of death, he has acquired a sensory power that mystifies and frightens him. Fiercely drawn to each other, Rowan and Michael set out to solve the mystery of her past and his unwelcome gift, and an intricate tale of evil unfolds: an evil unleashed in seventeenth-century Scotland, where the first witch, Suzanne of the Mayfair, conjures up the spirit that spells her own destruction and torments each of her descendants in turn. Praise for Anne Rice and The Mayfair Witches Behind all the velvet drapes and the gossamer winding sheets, this is an old-fashioned family saga. . . . Rices descriptive writing is so opulent that it almost begs to be read [by] candlelight.The Washington Post Book World [A] huge and sprawling tale of horror.The New York Times Book Review Lush prose, dense atmosphere, steamy sex, Gothic tension . . . Rice stages her scenes in a wide variety of times and locales, tapping deeply into the richest veins of mythology and history.San Francisco Chronicle Spellbinding . . . mythical . . . Rice is a pure storyteller.Cosmopolitan Rice sees things on a grand scale. . . . There is a wide-screen historical sweep to the tale as it moves from one generation of witches to the other.The Boston Globe An intricate, stunning imagination.Los Angeles Times Book Review It is hard to praise sufficiently the originality of Miss Rice. . . . She has made a masterpiece of the morbid, worthy of Poes daughter.The Wall Street Journal

I immersed myself in the writing of Anne Rice at 16. Her every word was my adolescence and even now when I reread my favorites it's like being welcomed in the arms of an old friend.
While everyone adores The Vampire stories my heart will always be with the Mayfair Witches. It feels like I lost one of my oldest and dearest friend.

1. I have a 1993 Mazda Miata with windows you have to crank (non-electric). It'd be fun to be able to upgrade someday.
2. Peanut Butter
3. The Mayfair Witches from Anne Rice. Three books, which are complete in themselves but whose characters make appearances in some of the later Vampire Chronicles books.
4. Special education teacher

BarbaraTheBibliophage @JacqMac I'm not alone, then. And good for you to nurse that baby so it keeps running until the kids leave home! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @TricksyTails @emtobiasz @FantasyChick I rarely eat them, since I'm not much of a candy person. Not sure if they are GF either, which I am. But, oh, they are soooo good! 7y
