I might at some point read the "new" Lestat books, but I wonder what is left after you've met God and the Devil? Got to be a comedown after that?
I'm curious about Atlantis but I'm also assuming the new Lestat books were cash grabs to try to get in on the Twilight hype. She just run out of ideas with the vampire books and even ended them with a lame crossover with the witch novels.

Which introduced me to her unsettling views on ****ing children. A very underaged teenage girl from the witch books had ****ed the very much adult dude protagonist but it was just framed as him cheating on his wife, who was related to the girl btw, but the wife forgave him cause he was a good guy or whatever the **** and the girl was a ho who ****ed everyone.

Then later I remember an interview with Anne Rice where she said something about how age is just a number and some kids are just mature for their age which gave me the impression she'd been molested when she was younger but thought it was fine.
