Lasher (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) by Anne Rice



Lasher (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) by Anne Rice
# Paperback: 640 pages
# Publisher: Ballantine Books; Reprint edition (August 1, 1995)
# Language: English
# ISBN: 0345397819

In short: though four hundred pages shorter, Lasher seems long-winded and loses some momentum and energy from the far more well crafted The Witching Hour. It is still worth reading, but I was a bit disapointed. Lasher the spirit attached to the Mayfair witches finds a way to take physical form.

People might be outraged: that there is a thirteen year-old nympho(?) having sex with older men.
