The Witching Hour (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) by Anne Rice



The Witching Hour (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) by Anne Rice
# Paperback: 1056 pages
# Publisher: Ballantine Books (March 22, 1993)
# Language: English
# ISBN: 0345384466

In Short: Engaging and lush family saga about a lineage of witches and the spirit bound to them. The present Mayfair witch is a neurosurgeon who moves to New Orleans to discover her past with her lover who has become clairvoyant from a near-death experience.

Much better than: any of Rice's tepid and solipsistic vampire novels

Recommended to: untreated monopolar depressive types, people who like intricate series with books over 1000 pages, and fans of the traditional sense of the word gothic.
