3.0 out of 5 stars Not That Bad, 5 Jan 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Lasher (Witching Hour) (Paperback)
I read the first in the series, The Witching Hour, and had hoped that the second would be equally as enthralling. I was a little disappointed at the lack of pace and direction for the first half. However, reading on you find that the interest factor increases and towards the end I found it hard to put down.

My overall conclusion is that it starts slowly but is worth being patient with. I will definately read the third in the trilogy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lasher, 6 April 2005
By Ms. J. Brooks "Jaz Design" (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Lasher Lasher (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) (School & Library Binding)
I did enjoy this book immensely, but was kind of glad to get it out of the way which was probably caused by reading it straight after The Witching Hour.

It is very well written and I promise you it will keep you hooked.
It's advisable to read The Witching Hour first, though I suppose one could get away without it, there's a lot there with regards to plot development which one finds useful.

Summary
+ You find out what Lasher is, and from whence he came.
+ Rice is magnificent in her portrayal of events and includes some unexpected ones, keeping the reader gripped.
+ You get to see more of Mona (who is fast becoming a favourite character of mine)
- I can't think of any negatives...
Enjoy :)

3.0 out of 5 stars She does it again!, 15 Dec 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Lasher (Lives of the Mayfair Witches) (Mass Market Paperback)
Having developed an addiction to Mrs Rice's intoxicating Vampire chronicles, and having found previous dissappointment in The witching hour, Lasher provided a well needed fix, of the technicolour, lust filled, depth delving world I crave!
The development of the delicious little Mona-now by far one of my favourite Rician characters-(none will ever surpass my beloved Lestat!!)left me licking my lips in a satiated fashion and even more fascinating discoveries of the Mayfair clan and our devillish Lasher make this an excellent read and well up to the standards(v-high) that I expect from my most extra-special favourite of authors.
However some of my fellow devotees may not relish the absence of the lavish descriptions, of the days when women wore gowns of the finest velvet and flowing taffeta and men wore erm ...tights. A tale of gothic wood panelled rooms and gilt furniture this is not, instead the history of this particular piece dates back to the times of the flapper dress, and not much further beyond.
Although at first unsure of my interest in this Mayfair saga, I'm looking forward with sugar happy glee, and wide eyed anticipation at reading Taltos(that's the next book by the way).
So, it's no Vampire chronicle, but what the hey! I'd read it again.
