La voz del diablo / Lasher - Anne Rice

Lasher es un espritu demonaco que se aprovecha de las Mayfair femeninas en su intento de procrear. Rowan Mayfair, reina del clan, ha dado a luz al hijo de Lasher y despus ha desaparecido...

Al principio oa la voz de su padre.

"Emaleth", le susurraba junto al vientre de su madre mientras esta dorma. Luego le cantaba largas canciones sobre el valle de Donnelaith, el castillo y el lugar donde un da se encontraran ambos. Le asegur que nacera sabiendo todo cuanto l saba. "As somos nosotros", le dijo su padre en el rpido lenguaje que los otros no comprendan.

A los otros les sonaba como un murmullo o un silbido. Era su lengua secreta, pues eran capaces de or unas slabas pronunciadas tan rpidamente que los otros no captaban. Ambos se comunicaban por medio de ese lenguaje.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the
day her first Vampire Chronicle was published, critics and readers--readers
by the hundreds of thousands--have been mesmerized by the writings of Anne
Rice.
And with the publication of The
Witching Hour, she created for us yet another world and legend, and both the
chorus of praise and the multitudes of her readers once more increased.

Now, Anne Rice brings us again--even more magically--into the midst of the
dynasty of witches she introduced in The Witching Hour.

At the center:
the brilliant an
beautiful Rowan Mayfair, queen of the coven, and Lasher, the darkly
compelling demon whom she finds irresistible and from whose evil spell and vision
she must now flee.
She takes with her
their terrifying and exquisite child, one of "a brood of children born
knowing, able to stand and talk on the first day."

Rowan's attempt to escape Lasher and his pursuit of her and their child are
at the heart of this extraordinary saga.
It is a novel that moves around the globe, backward and forward
through time, and between the human and demonic worlds.
Its many voices--of women, of men, of
demons and angels, present and past--haunt and enchant us.
With a dreamlike power, the novel draws us
through twilight paths, telling a chillingly hypnotic story of occult and
spiritual aspirations and passion.
