She was one of the greats. She was still living at first st and chestnut when I visited the garden district in search of the house—that house. Yes, she actually used to live in the Witching Hour house. Haven’t read any of her recent stuff, but her early stuff remains without parallel. t. Fellow author who was greatly inspired

never read her book but i did watch that homoerotic movie based on her book starring brad pitt and some other hollywood femboy. i watched it at this chicks house on a vhs tape was super high, man the 90s were comfy. like if you went inside a house and locked the door, the outside world essentially ceased to exist, unlike now where the whole fucking world is beamed into your pocket at all times.

Some series are better than others, the prose is florid and purple but usually suits the tone. her work is good for what it is and furthered the genre, it's a shame other authors missed the point of how insidious and inhuman the characters as a result of their own actions are and spawned paranormal romance. This applies to more than just the vampire books.

Actually, it's even more then that.
Anne Rice famously made mailing lists part of book culture when people wouldn't stop writing homosexual fanfiction with her characters, which she hated. She even went as far as to trademark her characters and sue hosting providers, which caused the VC homoerotic fanfiction network to resort to mailing lists. Kind of neat.

Checked and also God tried to warn her twice about her support of fag "marriage" and baby killing, she didn't listen, God said "I'm going to let the vax stroke her out, fuck it, I'm done with her."

That said, I actually really kind of love her books, especially the first several Vampire Chronicles. Interview with the Vampire, The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned are legit great. Some of the best modern gothic fiction in existence. RIP Anne, you confused liberal dummy.
