I think aliens *_*if done VERY right*_* could actually work in a Supernatural Gothic Horror setting. For instance, what if the Bird Aliens were *_*extremely Eldritch*_* 10th dimensional beings whose manifested appearance was _like_ Birds because that's the closest thing you could equate them to due to how incomprehensibly terrifying they appear to be! So yea, hopefully, if they ever adapt this book, they take some queues from Cixin Liu's _Remembrance of Earth's Past_ trilogy!
Ok. So, Lizard bird space overlords inadvertently created vampires with the organic robots they sent to Atlantis 12k years ago to erase all mammals. Love to have seen her publisher's face after that initial pitch 😊
There is a 0% chance that this book started as a Vampire Chronicles installment. It has the same problems as Memnoch. Anne had this ridiculous out-there concept, couldn't figure it out, and so she just said, "Fuck it, and Lestat's there too."
So really!..I mean are you speculating or is that really in the book?...I haven't read any of the books, I just love the tv series and trying to understand the series more by listening to these reactions...
I got so nostaglic watching the show, it made me want to reread the series. I forgot how badly it devolved. Memnoch and Lasher were already a lot...this is nutty 😂
I am so glad you're going through these books and explaining everything you read because when I read this book I found it so weird that I seriously thought I mixed it up with another book and became so confused! But nope, I read it correctly the first time. It's really just that weird. I am so thankful for these recap videos of the Vampire Chronicles books because it's making sense of everything I read when they were released. Can't wait to see this particular book on screen just for the weirdness!
28:35 i kind of zoned out for a second - what the hell is going on with this story? 😂 32:07 loosh is the conspiratorial equivalent 55:23 that was absurd and now i'm going to read it
Thank you for this, i was searching for some answer as to what the replimoids wants and why they didnt kill the vampires in the end, i got my answer. Lestat and amel are bestfriends
*nice vampire casting too.* & thats the end. kinda wish id read more books now. i guess you could read wheel of time or other things that become shows, to point out the differences? or i could ... no, thats the only option. _JC
Not gonna lie I've been reading these and when I start to get lost I watch your video explanation up to where I am because I don't remember half of the Characters or their names are so similar (Benjamin and Benedict, or Magnus and Marius) I get them confused with others lol This helps a lot.
*marius (& others) were alive before and after atlantis, in that region. socrates spoke of it* bc it was right off the coast 500 bc. no1 remembers that society? no1? i guess anne wont have read her books in a very long time. also: the whole story is insane. _JC
52:00 what about teh body thief, how does that work? why would they think anything can _ever_ dxe at this point. it is all insane. just map out a draft, GD it anne. make a flow chart. i forgot how insane things went. _JC
21:00 died off page. i fxxxking h8 it. anne's insane. why do this? idk. this was my reaction. even if you h8 them: of course this is the reaction. wild. _JC
It’s sounds like sci-fi fan fiction of the vampire chronicles then Anne rice I’m kinda glad I stopped reading the books after a certain point cause wtf
It seems like every book of Rice’s you “read”, you don’t like. I’m thinking the Chronicles aren’t for you. The stock photos of totally unrelated sources supposedly used as character references are cringe.
I think she likes the books, she even rates them positively and makes videos about them. Just because she doesn't workship the books it doesn't mean she doesn't like them.
I so badly want a Vampire Chronicles series that starts with gothic horror and eventually gets to bird aliens.
Ha! It definite took a turn.

Seriously! She was like “hear me out. What if the vampires were also secret aliens?” And don’t forget about the arm baby!
Louis was probably so mad that someone else got to burn something down.
Hahaha! O Louis and your pyromaniac ways.
Somehow the vampire chronicles become its own fanfictiom
I feel like anne rice was only a few shades away from writing lestat discovering the earth was once flat but made sphere
I mean… you’re not wrong. Haha! That sounds like something that would happen in those books.
There is a 0% chance that this book started as a Vampire Chronicles installment. It has the same problems as Memnoch. Anne had this ridiculous out-there concept, couldn't figure it out, and so she just said, "Fuck it, and Lestat's there too."
It wouldn't be an Anne Rice book without arson and weird shit happening
Don't forget that Emil is also in love with Louie from sharing Lestats mind for all of that while.
Everybody loves Louis. He’s a vampire dreamboat apparently. Haha
So really!..I mean are you speculating or is that really in the book?...I haven't read any of the books, I just love the tv series and trying to understand the series more by listening to these reactions...
@@seanjames1600haha don’t think you will understand much more coz the tv show just inspired by the books. That’s why I’m annoyed by it.
I love Anne Rices writing. The weirdness is what keeps me coming back
'This vampire is called Killer'
Well they sound so nice
What is Anne Rice even on.... every look this stuff gets EVEN WILDER
more historic
I got so nostaglic watching the show, it made me want to reread the series. I forgot how badly it devolved. Memnoch and Lasher were already a lot...this is nutty 😂
Its good that Anne let L. Ron Hubbard write one of her books

A show adaptation is inevitable!
*probs. i wonder how they can ruin THIS* (i mean they will. but, hard to imagine.)@@Itsrainingcatsyall
So I just stumbled on this video by chance. And now I’m confused for life 😂
Thank you so much for clearing that up for me!
I was listening to the audiobook, but I was interrupted and missed some great details.
Thanks a lot
Your really good at explaining the story.
28:35 i kind of zoned out for a second - what the hell is going on with this story? 😂
32:07 loosh is the conspiratorial equivalent
55:23 that was absurd and now i'm going to read it
God I love Anne Rice books
Thank you for this, i was searching for some answer as to what the replimoids wants and why they didnt kill the vampires in the end, i got my answer. Lestat and amel are bestfriends
I literally only care about the original characters that lead to Emil Akasha enkil Louis Marius arman and lestat
*nice vampire casting too.* & thats the end. kinda wish id read more books now. i guess you could read wheel of time or other things that become shows, to point out the differences? or i could ... no, thats the only option. _JC
This could've been a book to itself...
This review makes me want to go do a psychology degree, bring Anne back and just go "...why?"
Not gonna lie I've been reading these and when I start to get lost I watch your video explanation up to where I am because I don't remember half of the Characters or their names are so similar (Benjamin and Benedict, or Magnus and Marius) I get them confused with others lol This helps a lot.

*beautiful
I mean, suuuuuuumbich. I don't even know what to say. Is there a consensus on weirdest vampire origin story?
Definitely Anne Rice novels. Yupe i followed all her pure weirdness
Anyone else upset that Lestat didn't look for Quinn's little uncle Tommy? Tommy's dream was to learn about Atlantis
RIGHT IT MAKES ME SADDDDDDD that book is such a ugh thrown away :(
Thank you
So what we found out is Louis inherited his pyromaniac ways from his Great, great grandfather Roshamandes.. 😅😂
32:00 it is 1984 meets a Gxd metaphor (of course, it's anne), meets the 1%. _JC
52:00 what about teh body thief, how does that work? why would they think anything can _ever_ dxe at this point. it is all insane. just map out a draft, GD it anne. make a flow chart. i forgot how insane things went. _JC
27:00 just realizing that is the plot of eternals. _JC
Wow. I got almost halfway through this video, before I realised I've read this book.I had a few deja vu moments, but the Dertu thing made me remember.
2:50 this is why you leave some things as mysteries. _JC
47:30 yep. it is fxxxking wild. _JC
Who is the beautiful black actress you keep showing?
50:00 can they read the mind of thr maker? does any of it make sense? what if they are dying slowly? why didnt the twins know this? _JC
20:00 ethics of kxlling an imortal is at least interesting. _JC
21:00 died off page. i fxxxking h8 it. anne's insane. why do this? idk. this was my reaction. even if you h8 them: of course this is the reaction. wild. _JC
I was also very upset with Quinn's conclusion
In this book?
I thought he wasn't concluded.
I thought in this book, it was concluded that Mona died and Quinn was TBD
Does he conclude in the next book?
Don't tell me what happens, actually. I haven't gotten there
I think I had blocked out the arm face 😂
❤🍒
Whoever did these fan castings, fantastic...
*Does ANYONE KNOW WHY* the mouth on the hand sucked on the nipple?!!?!
ANYONE!? Was there ever an answer?
I think to nurture to grow into a new body

I stopped with Blood and Gold...😂 its like...nope...not going on the spaceships...sorry Anne.
