The Tale of the Body Thief - Anne Rice (Vampire Chronicles, Bk 4)

I do love Rice's style of new-age American Gothic. This book is a LOT of fun and I'm SO glad she wrote this story.  It's been bouncing around in the back of my mind for a long time, whenever astral projection comes up.  This book is a little less bloody than the first three of the series, but it is perhaps the most interesting from a theological stand-point.  As with the other three before it, I would recommend this book to everyone who's a fan of vampire-related fiction or anyone who enjoys a richly written world to make you ponder both the mundane and the essence of the soul.
