Editorial Reviews
“Unfolds with wondrous
and terrifying logic…The Mummy
reaches its dazzling conclusion in the same manner as Rice’s vampire books:
with the promise of more to come. Long live the Mummy!” —Boston Herald
“Rice’s disturbing
novels provoke though as well as entertain.” —Chicago Tribune
“Rice succeeds
masterfully in blending horror and romance…Ramses is a fascinating character,
heroic yet tragically flawed by his human desires.” —Atlanta Journal
“A typical Rice tale
combining sensuous romance with a historical angle, adding a dash of the
macabre…It should keep you up nights until you’ve finished, then you will stay
awake hoping to a sequel.” —Dallas Times Herald
“Captivating.” —Vogue
“A good story, part
romance novel, part horror story, part mini-course in Egyptology…A handsome,
mesmerizing monster.” —St. Louis Post-Dispatch
“Rice is undeniably
gifted and here characters are always compelling.” —Cincinnati Enquirer
“She’s done it again…With
Rice’s lush writing, a world where the unusual seems normal springs to life…If
you liked her vampire trilogy, you’ll be enthralled with her visit to Egypt’s
legends.” —Palm Beach Post
“The Mummy is superior to Rice’s vampire [novels].” —Rocky Mountain News
“Wonderfully eerie.” —USA Today
“Fascinating…Anne
Rice creates a mummy that is altogether new and different…The mythological
realm of eternal life is where Rice does her most fascinating work.” —Des Moines Register
“As one might expect from
a master storyteller, Rice’s mummy is no ordinary, garden-variety preserved
Egyptian…The Mummy takes us beyond
our ordinary associations with such things, into her fresh revision of old
ideas.” —New Orleans Times-Picayune
“Extraordinary…Filled
with horror, suspense, and romance, The
Mummy literally pulses with excitement and imagination. Subtly erotic and
definitely descriptive, this is Rice’s most exciting work to date.” —Henderson Dispatch
“The reader is held
captive, and, ultimately, seduced.” —San Francisco Chronicle
“Vintage Anne Rice:
quickly paced, elegantly erotic and full of enchanting terror.” —Detroit Free Press
