I liked that she didn't start with Marius and Armand It would have been too conventional to start at the beginning. I like how it goes back and forth.

@ Poster Amazon.com. It's like a flea market. . .they have everything. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.html/ref=ms_a_3_p1/103-8545399-8700621?ie=UTF8&a=0345385403@bgee Oh my Goodness! Finally, someone who sees the light. Anne Rice more than overated. In my opinion, if her Interview with a Vampire was not made into a movie WITH two of the biggest stars of that time. . .everyone would be going Anne Who? Has anyone read her Sleeping Beauty series? If you have. . .I bow to you. I could not get past the 1st ten pages of the 1st book and this is from a person who reads the back of a milk carton just for reading sake. To say she was. . .God, I can't even describe it. Hopefully someone who's read it can help me out. And yeah. . .she writing now Christian books. Saw her on a show on one of her tours.

I actually enjoyd ' the Tale of The Body Thief'. I was just curious when i read the vampire armand.
Anne Rice overhypes are vampires,but her vampires are very wack especially lestat. Imagine stephen king writing his own version of Vampire Chronicles.

LOL maybe King's should try the Vampiric scene 
Hmmm really? I enjoyed Lestat more in The Vampire Lestat (though there are pages of drawn out monologues or is it wonderings?)

i beg to differ
anne rice rather than overhype vampires gave a realistic veiw to them,
before her, vampires where bat turning ,gravity defying,leather jacket wearing supermen, with one Frailty , they couldnt be daywalkers!!
but with her you see the lonely side the dark side what it means to be cursed to walk ones remaining days on earth
she said something about vampires rolling over to die because they can't comprehend with change of time,
i remember at the end of interveiw with the vampire, the way lestat was potrayed as a vampire living in filth and calling for death,
no she gave an inside veiw to a vampires life

Vampires are products of myths and folklore, so there can be no such thing as a "realistic view to them". It's almost akin to saying someone gives a realistic view to unicorns, it is an impossibility.

i get your point, but her vampires were boring, they are almost looked like old ladies.

Another point i'd like to make it is that she focuses too much on artistic description of places.i feel that attention should hav been giving to the creation of intriguing,suspense-filled and thought provoking writing. Her books are like d horror versions of mills and boon. If u have read 'the vampire lestat' she kept on contracditing herself in d same book. Plus,her books are slow paced. And why was lestat bisexual,i can't believe i actually read her 'gay' vampire books.

the vampire lestat was way cool ditto for queen of the damned also tale of the body thief.
all i will agree with is that her books can be slow in starting. . .
i actually loathed lestat in the bginning based on interview with the vampire- the movie and the book - but after queen of the damned - ( i didn't read the books sequentially) i kind of like the guy

Anne Rice shows the human side of her vampires, because they are what they are doesnt mean they are animals and have no feelings. they have a deeper, more complex intellectual and emotional side. her books weren't meant to be horror stories, each character has a story and a journey and this is why her books have a large following. And why was lestat bisexual,i can't believe i actually read her 'gay' vampire books.
Lestat or any other vampire isnt bisexual , homosexual or any other sexual.,,,, vampires are sexless with only pure relationships and interactions on an intellectual and emotional level. This is why Lestat can love Louis and Armand and Gabrielle (his mother) without the constraints of homosexuality and incest, for in vampiredom, these do not exist. Any references to sex in her books are purely symbolic, in PANDORA Marius explains to Pandora that vampires don't have sex because that part of them is dead, and it doesnt matter. all relationships are consummated on an intellectual and emotional level

i have read the whole vampire chronicles, including the new tales of the vampire, and though its true that anne rice's writing can be boring at times, i feel that those books couldnt have been written any other way.im a total fan. i got one of here christian books, christ out of egypt or smthing like that, havent started reading it yet.

her vampier chronicles are good i have read akasha queen of the damned.pandora.tale of the body theif. vampier lestat.but if you want to really feel anne rice go for witching hour its about a generation of witches called the mayfair witches they have power and money.but what there devil want is to have flesh and become human.he accomplished this through the help of rowan mayfair the thirteenth witch, i have a copy.if you have the sequel lasher we can exchange.
