ANNE RICE
Believe it or not, this lady started out writing raunchy gay fiction! Sex and the supernatural go hand and hand, no one understands that more than Anne Rice. She is the Queen of the Vampires, although she has written books featuring ghosts, witches, werewolves, you name it! She puts immense details into her thick manuscripts, inventing entire bloodlines, histories, and even genetic mappings of her characters. If you only know her for her films, you must crack open one of her books.

I'm quite sure that you guys must get this all the time but: I can't believe I hadn't come across your blog before, it's pure perfection. I love it!
ReplyDeleteAs a fellow lady interested (obsessed)in horror, it's a pleasure and a privilege to find a blog with so much quality content in it. Thanks a lot, keep up with the great work and congratulations! (Also, great author selection on this particular post). Sending all my love from Mexico!
The only author I've read on this list is the great Agatha Christie! She's awesome! And while she was the master of the formulaic whodunit, I love it when she goes un-formulaic! haha!
ReplyDeleteShe also wrote another book that might come under that list on here-Something Wicked This Way Comes. It's been a while since I've read it, so I don't remember much about it, just that it was pretty macabre!
Marian: Wow, thanks so much for the kind words! And we're quite glad you found us!
ReplyDeleteStay tuned, there's more to come...
Chris: Agatha Christie is certainly one of the best authors that ever picked up a pen.
However - she didn't write Something Wicked This Way Comes, that was the late, great Ray Bradbury. It's a stellar book, and if you liked it you should be sure to check out his other works. He too, is a master.
Thanks for reading!!
Marian: Yeah, what Christine said, we are truly honored you found us!!! Feel free to comment as often as you want, we love ladies who love horror.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading, Chris!!
Actually she DID write a Something Wicked This Way Comes-It has the same title as the Ray Bradbury book! haha! It's totally different, and is a Tommy and Tuppence whodunit.
ReplyDeleteChris: I've never read this one, but I assume this is the title you meant:

OOOH, damn, my memory's dead! haha! Yes, that is the one! I'm getting Shakespeare sentences mixed up! haha!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I definitely recommend it.
You're awesome, Chris!
