Sorry if it comes like I'm pushing this book, but I haven't seen many novelists produce a scholarly or even semi-scholarly work in a while. I thought I would share some lines for everyone with Jesus' first confrontation with the guy downstairs;

"I'm watching you, angel child!" he said. "I'm waiting to see what you mean to do. So go on: walk like a child, eat like a child, work like a child. But I'm watching, And I may not know the future, no, but I know this: your mother's a whore, your father's a liar, and the floors of your house are dirt. Your cause is lost, I know it's lost, it's lost every day and every hour, and you know it is. You think your little miracles will help these foolish people? I tell you, chaos rules. And I am its Prince." (p. 197)

Meh. I stopped reading Rice a half-dozen books ago and the reviews say this one is sincere but not a very good read.

Try Ann Bishop's Black Jewels trilogy for some good dark fantasy, or Nancy A. Collins' Sonja Blue for vampire fans.

I, Lucifer is a great look at Satan. Comes of as a comedy most of the time but it is a serious work. written by Glen Duncan.

Interesting. I have always liked Anne Rice. It is hard to judge from one mere paragraph. Who is this Angel child he speaks of. Man of this earth. Satan talking to him, in his deeming, derogatory way, to insult the child. This child struggles throughout life, dealing with his own chaos. While Satan thrives in his chaos. The only order, is Satans choas.

Will ponder that some more.

Had a friend of mine, unbeknownst to me, she went to a book signing, she waited and waited in line. Finally, her destiny is before her. She has a book signed.

I go to work the next morning. "Go look at your desk," she tells me. What? I see a new hard bound edition of Interview with the Vampire. There is a note, laid on top of the book, it reads. To.....****** from Lestat. I laughed, what???? :D I open the front cover. There is my name, and it's signed by Anne Rice. With the year. Kick ass.
Thank you............thank you. ;)
