Née en 1941 à La Nouvelle-Orléans, Anne Rice commence à écrire au milieu des années 1970 ce qu'elle pense être "une courte nouvelle sur le thème du vampirisme". Entretien avec un vampire deviendra un livre culte, le premier volume des "Chroniques des vampires". Reine du fantastique moderne qu'elle a révolutionné en lui apportant sensualité et démesure, elle passe au roman historique avec La Voix des anges, superbe histoire de castrats à Venise, et à l'érotisme avec Les infortunes de la Belle au bois dormant. Revenue à ses chers vampires avec Lestat, le vampire et La Reine des damnés, elle se consacre bientôt à "La Saga des sorcières de Mayfair", avec Le Lien maléfique, L'Heure des sorcières et Taltos. Parmi les dix tomes constituant "Les Chroniques des vampires", trois réunissent les personnages des deux séries : Merrick, Le Domaine Blackwood et Le Cantique sanglant.

Résumé
From the iconic, bestselling author of The Vampire Chronicles-Ramses the Great, former pharaoh of Egypt, is reawakened by the elixir of life in Edwardian England. Now immortal with his bride-to-be, he is swept up in a fierce and deadly battle of wills and psyches against the once-great Queen Cleopatra. In this mesmerizing, glamorous tale of ancient feuds and modern passions, Ramses has reawakened Cleopatra with the same perilous elixir whose unworldly force brings the dead back to life.
But as these ancient rulers defy one another in their quest to understand the powers of the strange elixir, they are haunted by a mysterious presence even older and more powerful than they, a figure drawn forth from the mists of history who possesses spectacular magical potions and tonics eight millennia old. This is a figure who ruled over an ancient kingdom stretching from the once-fertile earth of the Sahara to the far corners of the world, a queen with a supreme knowledge of the deepest origins of the elixir of life.
She may be the only one who can make known to Ramses and Cleopatra the key to their immortality-and the secrets of the miraculous, unknowable, endless expanse of the universe.
