First! I updated the gallery to include scans of chapter 21, chapter 22, and chapter 23. I also added to the misc. scans and added a merchandise scans page.

I added some anime info, too. Now, you can read a little about Zero’s seiyuu, get information about the anime OST, and look at a list of episodes. Oh! And icons.

Obviously you have good intentions here, and I think you are right that people do not need an author’s consent to write an unofficial guide to the work. But I would like to say this: there is a really unkind tone to your post, and I wonder why you and others write this sort of unkind letter to authors. Do you think we don’t have feelings? Do you think we don’t read what you say? Do you think we are not entitled to common courtesy?—I urge you in future to realize that writers are human beings with feelings like everyone else. The rampant viciousness on the internet is hurtful to to me even when it’s not aimed at me. I feel that we can use the internet constructively with manners. It is a magnificent means of communication, but we don’t have to attack people to make it work.—Thank you for reading this and I wish you well, Anne Rice.

In response, the webmaster writes an entire post to Anne Rice regarding her few line comment.

I don’t know, but there might be a little bitterness derived from an article posted by Dawn called Saving Lestat after the whole ‘Anne Rice might be writing another Vampire Chronicle’ excitement (which she is not, so don’t clutch your chest in happiness).

And look! other people have opinions!

Just keeping all of you updated on the latest Anne Rice news and wank. How come Anne Rice can never come and comment on one of MY blogs? Or, hell, even here? A site dedicated to the adoration of one of her characters. Let’s focus on the good and not the bad! Not those who criticize but… oh hell, those who do but mean nothing but love in their words.

Oh Anne Rice, I AM most sincerely and adoringly a devoted fan. <3

And, as a side website note, I cleaned the virus from the gallery.

FROM ANNE: THERE WILL BE NO CHRISTIAN VAMPIRE NOVEL FROM ME.

In spite of a flood of emails askng for a Christian Lestat novel (a novel in which Lestat is redeemed), and my own comment about this in the press, I am completely putting aside this project. After prayer, meditation, and much pondering, I do not think such a novel is possible. My present focus has to be on my novels about the life of Jesus Christ and I do not want to revisit the realm of my earlier books. I thank all of you who have written to me on this, both pro and con. You have helped me to think out the question. I can assure you; as things stand now there will be no Christian Lestat novel.

Let me tell you, I love her books so, so much. But, as a person, Mrs. Rice disappoints me. Yet, I am a little happy that there will be no book… for a number of reasons…
1.) Marius wouldn’t be in it anyway, so it’s not like I would be all that inclined to read it, anyway.
2.) It would probably suck. It would have probably been an over Christianized novel that removes Lestat from the old and typical suffering we’ve known to come and love, the suffering of one looking for eternal answers.

So, whatever.

And if you haven’t read already, Mrs. Rice wrote a piece for On Faith called My Trust in My Lord.

With a twist, perhaps?

According to Mrs. Rice, this novel will have a particularly religious theme. No more than the other Chronicles, right? Since any reader of the Chronicles knows full well that God, the Devil, human nature, and how evil and good are defined are regular themes and topics in almost all of the books.

We can only imagine how this one will end. What will Lestat leave us with? Final words for comfort? A sense that the Chronicles has come to a full close, something that Blood Canticle failed to do? Or will Mrs. Rice use Lestat as a medium for her own opinions and voice? Will all of the unsatisfied readers be put to shame by Mrs. Rice through Lestat.

Oh, I hope not. I want to feel satisfied. I desperately want to feel like it’s over and complete without that sense that something is not right. Blood and Gold was by far the best novel ever written (you may beg to differ, of course), but I was not happy with the way that the Chronicles ended. In addition to this new book, I and many other fans would love if Mrs. Rice began to write more of the personal biographies of her characters much in the way of Pandora, Vittorio, Armand, and Marius.

I suppose we’ll just have to see where Mrs. Rice and Lestat take us now.

And a BIG thank you to Alyson for the email with the link to this article.

- Marius de Romanus (Vampire Chronicles, the)

First, the Tale of the Body Thief scans of Marius are up. Since scanning was going on, it seemed a shame to stop. Another part of the Tale of the Body Thief comic was scanned, Anne’s essay, Twenty Six Years With My Beloved Immortals. Afterwards, also scanned was the Queen of the Damned comic preview from the second comic issue of the Vampire Companion, which wasn’t actually used in the Queen of the Damned comic books released. Lastly, scanned were the covers of comic books/graphic novels owned.

There are some new pages, too! And updated information because I just read the most recent chapters, so my information was updated accordingly to new info and revelations. The only real NEW page is the page on Zero’s Fate. Remember, everything on this site is very spoiler heavy.

Also, I updated the Are You Connected? page with everything in my inbox from June. Man… I had put off updating a LONG time. I am so sorry. Let me make a note that double submissions will not be accepted. I’ll take your first submission and delete all following.

- Suicide Club

Next up will be the Interview With the Vampire manga… as soon as it comes in the mail, that is.
