      Yes, The Vampire Lestat. It was popular when I was in high school too, but I didn’t read it until my 20s and that little added pencil preface is incredibly accurate.

      The novel starts with him being awakened from his vampiric slumber by hearing rock music and he joins a band. I wish I was making that up. Thankfully it then went into a flashback, but it was still not worth continuing to read such nonsense.

        I made it all the way to The Vampire Armand before I gave up. They just continuously got worse.
