First Edition/ First Printing 1988. A handsome copy in fine condition in an unclipped and fine dustjacket. This copy is signed and inscribed to a book critic "For Grayson" by the author on the front free endpaper. There is a very minor and small fleck stain to the top page edge only---otherwise would be very fine. the dustjacket is flawless. Book III of "The Vampire Chronicles" started in 1976 with "Interview With The Vampire"--continued in 1985 with "The Vampire Lestat". All three titles available together at a discount. A very collectable copy. From a recent Bonham's and Butterfield's estate auction.
