There he finds himself, amidst the towers of Manhattan, in confrontation with his own human origins.

A soulless soul, a dead man walking, he lives under a series of aliases - just now: Lucky the Fox - and takes his orders from “The Right Man”. Into O’Dare’s nightmarish world of lone and lethal missions comes a mysterious stranger, a seraph, who offers him a chance to save rather than destroy lives.

Story
In a sweeping saga of music and vengeance, the acclaimed author of The Vampire Chronicles draws listeners into 18th-century Italy, bringing to life the decadence beneath the shimmering surface of Venice, the wild frivolity of Naples, and the magnetic terror of its shadow, Vesuvius. This is the story of the castrati, the exquisite and otherworldly sopranos whose graceful bodies and glorious voices win the adulation of royal courts and grand opera houses throughout Europe. These men are revered as idols - and, at the same time, scorned for all they are not.

Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....

Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed", usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control, and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior.

Story
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder - much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing - not even a smear of blood - to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

Publisher's Summary
Educated in the Florence of Cosimo de'Medici, trained in knighthood at his father's mountaintop castle, Vittorio inhabits a world of courtly splendor and country pleasures - a world suddenly threatened when his entire family is confronted by an unholy power.
In the midst of this upheaval, Vittorio is seduced by the vampire Ursula, the most beautiful of his supernatural enemies. As he sets out in pursuit of vengeance, entering the nightmarish Court of the Ruby Grail, increasingly more enchanted (and confused) by his love for the mysterious Ursula, he finds himself facing demonic adversaries, war, and political intrigue.
Against a backdrop of the wonders - both sacred and profane - and the beauty and ferocity of Renaissance Italy, Anne Rice creates a passionate and tragic legend of doomed young love and lost innocence.
Vittorio is Volume 2 of The New Tales of the Vampires. For a full selection of Anne Rice programs available at audible.com® and to hear the author answering fan mail, visit the Anne Rice store.

Great Story, Bad Recording.
The story is actually great but the narrator's voice, while not bad, is just not right for a 16 year old boy's voice. He is talented and does great on some of the other male characters but the fact is the main character is supposed to be 16 years old. That is the most charitable I can be about this as a whole.
Sounds garbled, like it was taken directly from one of those old school "cassettes on tape." The worst thing is the editing! It repeats and even skips words throughout the whole book (maybe at the points when the cassette tape was supposed to be turned over? Not sure but it's bad!)
Sounds fuzzier and fuzzier as you go. I was hoping it was going to be a couple small issues that would improve but nope-It just got worse.
Very disappointing. This should be updated and the new one should be given to people that have already paid for this awful version. I can't believe Anne Rice would approve of her material being butchered in this way. The story itself is good but this version of it is not! As I said before, Very disappointed😕

Needs an update
The story itself was good and enjoyable, but it was obvious that this was originally recorded on tape. The audio was a bit fuzzy, the editing was spotty (narrator would repeat lines, or skip), and around the last few chapters, it began to sound further away, and a bit muffled. The narrator himself wasn’t bad overall though.

Firstly, the recording repeats various sections and it sounds like they used a potato for a microphone attached to the same cassette recorder with which Daniel recorded the tale of Louis.
As for the content: not bad but not great. The worst of the Vampire Chronicles of which the rest I have deeply enjoyed.

Anne Rice yes! Narration not so much
Loved the book but found the narration forced. Personally I would have enjoyed Jonathan Marosz reading something more like an Alex Cross or Dirk Pitt type caricature.
