Subject: Anne Rice
Category: People


One of America's most read and celebrated authors, Anne Rice is known for weaving the visible and supernatural worlds together in epic stories that both entertain and challenge readers. Her books are rich tapestries of history, belief, philosophy, religion, and compelling characters that examine and extend our physical world beyond the limits we perceive.

Anne has written under three names, her own, Anne Rampling, and A. N. Roquelaure. Under her own name, she has published two historical novels, five books in The Vampire Chronicles series, three books on the lives of The Mayfair Witches, and three other novels including her latest VIOLIN. Under Anne Rampling, she has published two works Exit to Eden, and Belinda. Under A. N. Roquelaure, Anne published the Beauty series.

Anne lives and works in New Orleans with her husband Stan and her son Christopher.

The fascinating characterization of vampires in the Vampire Chronicles series brought upon a surge in vampire-obsessed teens, which many goths tend to hold in disdain. However, the literature itself is proves enjoyable reading.
