Blood Communion: A Tale of Prince Lestat is a vampire novel by Anne Rice that explores the complex relationship between Lestat, who was once the anti-hero of her other famous book Interview with an Immortal, and Gabrielle, his sire. Yet, like Lestat himself, this story is also about her struggle to understand the meaning of redemption. As a daughter of God's Church on Earth, she must come to terms with the idea that some vampires can be saved.

Each year, Mother s Day falls on the Vernal Equinox, and to mark the occasion, I always watch the film of Anne Rice's story "Blood Communion." And every year I cry, for it is a story about a mother's devotion to her child.

The King Vampire Lestat has finally found her: a mortal woman to satisfy his need for human blood and the love he has not known in many centuries. The wise Queen Akasha, creator of vampires herself and ruler over all of Louisiana's sultry nightlife, blesses the union of Lestat and his strange new bride. But Akasha cannot foresee the consequences that will arise from this union, nor can she anticipate what is yet to come.

Disgusted with the inner depravity he has done, Prince Lestat is determined to live as a vampire and atone for his sins.

Anne Rice's story of an immortal vampire prince and the mortal woman who falls in love with him, set in a medieval-era France, has long been one of my favorite books. "Blood Communion" has moved with me through many life phases, from teenage romance to grandmotherly wisdom. I felt so much connected to Lestat that it's hard for me to even imagine reading the book without feeling his presence echoing in the background.
