**He wasn’t ashes…IIRC, he kinda “flew” or “exploded” and ended up on this hotel roof. He was just severly burnt, charred right to the bone, but not ashes. Because he had really strong, old blood in him. Something like that.

Sheesh, read the book **

I will, I will…I was just curious.

I’m the type that reads spoilers that ruin movies…I can’t help it…

In response to the OP, nope her new one, Blackwood Farm is the most overtly homosexual one…I will say no more but it is more descriptive than her other books…

I convinced my SO to read her stuff and he likes it…he’s a bit of a homophobe and Blackwood freaked him smooth out…poor thing.

**I don’t know about that… but after the first three in the Vampire Chronicles, they started to seriously suck. **

I have to agree. Her last decade of books suck big time.

I like it when she writes about other topics.
And yes, she has some deep sexual obsessions, but don’t we all?

**I read The Vampire Lestat first (my friend had it laying around and I didn’t know about IwtV). Then I read Interview and then the rest in order. I’m almost glad that I started with Lestat. Since it is his book, told from his perspective, I started out with a sympathetic view of him–instead of seeing him first as a villain as he was described by Louis in Interview. **

This is exactly what I did, and exactly what I’ve said to lots of people. “Read Lestat first” etc.

The Vampire Chronicles? I thought Anne Rice wrote The Vagina Monologues.

If anyone has read the erotica that Anne Rice has written… well you’d see that the sex in the Vampire Chronicles is practically Puritanical in comparison.
