Marius warns Lestat not to disturb the sleeping progenitors. At his first concert in San Francisco, he reunites with Louis and Gabrielle just as angry vampires attack; a mysterious force, the awakened Akasha, destroys the attackers and abducts Lestat, ending the novel on a cliffhanger that leads into the next book, The Queen of the Damned.

In very good condition, this book is an entertaining and exciting account of Cadwallader’s experiences with Grant during the Vicksburg and Chattanooga campaigns and includes observations of Grant and Lee at Appomattox. Selling for as much as $100 through booksellers, this was a treasured part of my husband’s civil war library.
