I was just wondering wether any of you have perused the offerings by anne rice, and what you thought about it. I just finished "interveiw" and so far I like what Ive read. DO any of you have a particular favorite book by her?
Rice is pretty cool... I've read the vamp novels up thru (Interview, Lastat, Queen, Body Thief) Memnoch the Devil, and they were all pretty good (or excellent). After that, the armond/pandora stuff I haven't read, my friend told me they were kinda going downhill, and I've been reading other things. Merrick has been on my shelf for 2 years, I haven't touched it.
Outside the vamp stuff, I have it on good authority that the Witching Hour/Lasher/Taltos trilogy was really good, but I haven't gotten around to that one myself.
Finally, if you're a demented pervert, you might want to pick up her Sleeping Beauty series, published under a pseudonym that I can't recall atm. They were... um... well, demented and perverted.

8)
1. The sleeping beauty trilogy :twisted:
2. The Mayfair witches novels 8)
3. The Vampire Lestat :D
Some of her older stuff is real good. Interview and Lestat are the best, but Blackwood Farm was so boring >.<;;;
