This is the first Anne Rice book I have read, and it was pretty good. It is about the life and struggles and family drama surrounding a young castrati (castrated opera singer) in 18th century Italy. It deals a lot with the music and art of the day and has a lot of descriptive gay sex, so don't order it if that offends you. It is an interesting departure from her usual vampire themed books. Its an easy read, if the subject matter interests you then you will enjoy it.
