Merrick [Paperback]

Anne Rice (Author), Camila Batlles Vinn (Translator)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 10, 2005

Three of Anne Rice's most popular characters, the vampires Lestat, Louis, and Claudia, are introduced to the world of her Mayfair Witches series in this fascinating history that traverses between New Orleans past and present, the jungles of Guatemala, secular Mayan ruins, and the hearts of civilizations not yet discovered by man. Merrick is a beautiful descendent of les gens de couleur libres, a voodoo sect that surged from New Orleans's mulattos, born of African women and their French colonists. But Merrick does not yet know that she has inherited the extraordinary powers that made her ancestors, the Mayfair Witches, so famous in centuries past.

This review is from: Merrick (Paperback)

I am not happy with this order at all. It was sent to my son directly from Amazon to jail, and they sent it incorrectly n Spanish. I sent three books and two were correctly in English. I've sent enail after email to Amazon to have them refund my account for this book or send it free of charge in English. directly to my son. All of my attempts have gone unanswered. No has bother to return my email or to assist me with this matter. This was a $20 book not the usual $7 or $8 book. I am currently getting ready to send him other books but I am trying to find another source that cares about the customer.
