Anne Rice has found God

“I promised,” she says, “that from now on I would write only for the Lord.”

Now, I only read a couple of her books, but I know she had a huge fanbase. I guess no more stories about vampires?

Umm…yea?

Looks like another Dylan-esque turn to Faith. We are in for some uber-sucky books from her now.

Fixed link.

Wow. I thought her stuff was unbearable before.

I guess her sales went down so she decided to jump genres.

That link didn’t work for me, even after correcting it. Maybe this will.

Okay, off to read the story now.

NOW? What was her excuse before?

From hassling her own fan-base over fan fic to half-baked political screeds about New Orleans, Anne Rice has always come off to me as a few sandwiches short of a picnic. This just confirms it.

Christ is “the ultimate immortal”? Ummmm, yeah :dubious:

And where did she find Him anyway? In the cellar in the creepy Victorian house under Lestat’s coffin?

You forgot the hissyfits at Amazon whenever someone gives her a less than stellar review.

In a related news story astronomers announce that they have discovered something which can suck harder than both a Paris Hilton “event” and a black hole combined!

“We found that not only is it responsible for the celestial object now being referred to as ‘The Axis of Evil,’ but also the recent storm surge which devestated New Orleans.” Said Dr. Tiddles of the IAU. “It turns out to be the latest novel by Anne Rice. We’re testing theories now that indicate a large hunk of anti-matter directed towards Ms. Rice will destroy this new object. If not, then the entire universe is doomed.”

Thanks for fixing the link…I don’t know what happened.

Anne Rice can write about a boy who doesn’t get sodomized, and secretly enjoy it?

She has changed.

You know, I could pre-empt you all and get in a wonderful Catholic priest joke here, but I’m not going to, 'cause I’m above that. :smiley:

I don’t know. I envision such number 1 sellers as

Interview with an Apostle

Lestat, The TV Ministry.

Exit from Eden

Cry to Heaven II The art of repentance

The King of the Damed , and how to avoid him

Memnoch the Devil II, JC kicks butt

Oh, why start now? :wink:

She’s still Ann Rice. She usually has some homoerotic subplot, especially when there’s a boy and a grown man in a story. Who else thinks her new book will have 7 year old JC being molested or at least lusted after by this “bewitchingly handsome Satan”?

‘I read this book called Intercourse With The Zombie by Anne Gravy…’ – New Orleans street denizen in Zombie! vs. Mardi Gras

I don’t suppose He was behind the coffin the whole time, was he?

Just when you think Anne Rice can’t get any kookier she goes and proves you wrong.
I stopped reading her halfway through Memnoch The Devil, not sure why it took me so long.

That’s exactly where I stopped. Later, friends told me lots of people stop there. Just skip it and read the next book. Besides:

She pretty much recaps all the important parts of Memnoch in her following book, The Vampire Armond.

I’m sure Anne Rice fans are crying “Yaoillujah!”
