Khayman my khayman, part of the first brood, your dedication to your king and queen …. you deserve revenge man

Rice had played the afterlife pretty ambiguously in the first two novels, less so the second. When Rice gives us a glimpse of her world’s afterlife, with Baby Jenks entering heaven and understanding the eternal love of her own mother who she had at one point despised, she invites judgment on her villainous if sympathetic vampires. I have a feeling that it is meant to undercut Lestat’s atheistic ethos.

Two more chapters until I’m done with part 3. The book keeps getting more ridiculous as the story progresses. There’s barely any plot, and it’s just too campy for my taste. But will push through, nonetheless!

Khayman u deserved so much better, man
