The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty Summary


The Review:

Anne Rice's The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty is an ancient fairy tale with a disturbing twist. You will most likely be outraged if you are unfamiliar with the BDSM lifestyle. The focus of this narrative is on S&M. The scenes are quite vivid and violent. It reminds me of the novella "O." It chronicles Beauty's development and sexuality. Basically, it's an erotic fantasy about the life of a slave.

This is the original Fifty Shades of Grey, excluding the extraneous elements that I despise in that series. Beauty is a complex character with well-written internal issues. There isn't a single page devoted to pointless drama.

I really enjoy how the fairy tale mood is consistently emphasized in a fresh and consistent manner. The "forms of punishment" have a purpose as well. Very creative, with a sinister undercurrent, and well-written.

I don't usually read erotica on purpose, but I wanted to read all of Anne Rice's books, so I chose to read the beauty series as well. I'm not a big admirer of this genre, but I still read other authors as a professional reviewer. As you could expect, I skip the portions that go beyond a certain level of sexualization and merely read them to see how the author writes. And I discovered that Anne Rice can write anything about anything and turn it into a masterpiece.

Yes, to a reader, this book is exactly what it appears to be, and the tale is straightforward, but I saw and handled it in a holistic manner, and I believed it was an allegory for our society.

Maybe Anne Rice meant it for us to uncover the actual meaning since I never read these sorts of books, or maybe I ponder too much and link things that have nothing to do with each other.

Simply read the following few paragraphs and make your own decision once you've finished the book.

Everyone who reads this book will be jolted out of their slumber. When read as an allegory, it tells a wonderful narrative about the subordinate roles that we all take on in order to function in society. We deal with it every day in traffic; we occasionally have domineering employers; we deal with folks who are a pain in the neck but to whom we must be kind.

Our whole lives are spent repressing our natural drives and inclinations in order to respect the rights of others; in that sense, the human is never truly free, and we are always slaves to the opinions and respect of others.

Anne Rice's narrative appears to be an analogy for military training, in which the purpose is to remove an individual's sense of personal identity and replace it with collective allegiance. Such supremacy is enforced in the military.

Consider the demands to be a "part of the team" in most enterprises. In private life, corporations frequently spend excessive amounts of money to build comparable loyalty.

Some women want dominance and will go to great lengths to satisfy others. It's just heartbreaking. This is the Sleeping Beauty's narrative.

If that's the case, Anne Rice's novel is a depiction of the agony some women go through in order to satisfy their husbands. Any woman who has been in that circumstance, or who has broken away from it, would relate and understand.

Because those sensations were a part of their first love, it will be thrilling and sexy for them. It's possible they'll try it again, but they won't be able to live with it for long.

Anne Rice touched on a common theme: dominance and the desire to please others. Some persons are referred to as "authoritarians" because they expect complete compliance.

Anne Rice was creative enough to apply it to some extremely sensitive topics among individuals, which, despite its strong erotica, makes the novel incredibly terrifying.

I'm thinking of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" and William Golding's "Lord of the Flies." William Golding speaks of a degenerating war for supremacy, and the necessity to humiliate the weaker.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn describes the small humiliations placed on prisoners to make them docile; Alexander Solzhenitsyn describes the petty humiliations forced on captives to make them compliant. Prison life is an excellent illustration of this type of behavior, with daily living resembling some of the humiliations inflicted on "Sleeping Beauty."

The name itself is degrading. Her true name is never mentioned, despite the fact that she was the "Sleeping Beauty." That's as insulting as always referring to a person by their number rather than their name, which is a typical habit in prison; or a controlling spouse's "Hey, you" or worse.

Anne Rice draws into some of our worst thoughts and creates a terrifying narrative based on them. This is a potent combo. Some readers will be offended by the sex, but it is an important aspect; the domination motif will enrage anybody who values individual liberty. However, if you read it at a level above that of a fairy tale, it will make you think. And maybe even weep. That is a nice thing.


Final Thoughts:

A trashy novel, in my opinion, could be written by virtually anyone with just the right amount of creativity. That's simple. But writing a book full of situational erotica that performs as erotica should, while also being entertaining and a little complex, is what distinguishes erotica from filthy books with a lot of dirty words—often misspelled—or even thinner books leading up to one encounter that is straight sex with no glimpse into the complexity behind the act. Which might be as energizing as the act itself.

Consider this... It's fun to read about a character being disciplined, but it's much more fun to be permitted into the other character's mind and delight in correcting them. Then there are the spectators, who let us inside their minds as they observe the action in front of them. Anne Rice's erotica is built in this way, and it's what makes her so excellent at it.

This book is set in a fantastic universe that is rich in historical and geographical information. Anne Rice delves into the worlds of sensuality and fairy tales. The characters are well-developed, and the setting is unique in both context and layout.

This is a world of consequence and the development of individuals who are born to rule the kingdoms from which they originate. This novel has not just charm and charisma, but also a slew of obstacles for the individuals that inhabit Anne Rice's kingdom's world and historical sphere.

This narrative is serious and graphic; it is not a happily ever after story until much later in the series, and it is debatable to use it as a descriptor of this story's telling.

Last but not least, I'd like to discuss the points and suggestions I made. Because I know many readers will be outraged by many of the events in this book, I believe I gave it far fewer points than it deserved. Second, I simply recommended 50 points for the reason, implying that you have the option of reading it or simply passing it.

This book and series are simply the yardstick against which the genre is measured.


Synopsis:
“From best-selling author Anne Rice, writing as A.N. Roquelaure, in the traditional folktale of "Sleeping Beauty", the spell cast upon the lovely young princess and everyone in her castle can only be broken by the kiss of a prince. It is an ancient story, one that originally emerged from and still deeply disturbs the mind's unconscious. Now Anne Rice's retelling of the Beauty story probes the unspoken implications of this lush, suggestive tale by exploring its undeniable connection to sexual desire. Here the Prince reawakens Beauty, not with a kiss, but with sexual initiation. His reward for ending the 100 years of enchantment is Beauty's complete and total enslavement to him…as Anne Rice explores the world of erotic yearning and fantasy in a classic that becomes, with her skillful pen, a compelling experience.”

Servant of the Bones Summary


The Review:

Servant of the Bones is energetic, straightforward, realistic, dark, and brooding. Anne Rice has written a book that will be remembered for a long time! And there you have it! It would make a fantastic film for anyone looking for answers to the eternal question of "What's it all about?" in today's world. Prior to and following death.

Why do modern faiths provide so many perplexing enigmas? This author had a lot of knowledge! Anne Rice responds to this and much more in her own unique manner. In some strange unspoken manner, this novel makes you want to live in it as with almost all of her novels.

Reading it will transport you back to the world of sumptuous colors we all had as youngsters, which were intended to help us maintain a soul level but instead became black and white convictions.

Whatever the case may be. Anne Rice had a gift for seeing reality. She noticed and was drawn to certain things. All I can say now is that you should not miss out on this book! You will never be let down!

Vampires, mummies, and witches are just a few of the themes that acclaimed novelist Anne Rice has lavished attention on. When a genie appears in her latest story, the renowned otherworldly author addresses another facet of the strange dimension. Anne Rice does it masterfully, providing a vivid insight into Babylon's biblical civilization.

It was impossible for me to stop reading because it was utterly engrossing, and I read till the early hours of the morning, not realizing the passage of time. I'd compare it to Queen of the Damned in that there's a lot of action... no decent locations to stop for resting or eating... but it contains the character development of the previous Vampire Chronicles without the need to skip pages and pages of detailed prose.

In fact, I only recall two instances where she went off on a tangent or described something that didn't contribute anything to the tale, and I had to skip a few lines.

That is, however, characteristic of Anne Rice and to be anticipated from non-fans or readers who do not appreciate the value of reading every word an author has written, especially if it is an author of Anne Rice's caliber.

In Servant of the Bones, you have another immortal creature created against his will, but you don't know what he is, so you can't form any opinions about his character or fate.

Once again, the immortal seeks out a Talbotian figure to write his memoirs, and we have the usual male-to-male dynamic of past Anne Rice stories but without the co-dependency.

Again, we have a theological struggle between the average guy who is pushed into a situation that, by definition, would deprive him of God's grace... but this time, instead of interpreting from some broad reference to religion, we have the precise and difficult backdrop of Orthodox Judaism.

Servant of the Bones is not part of a series; it is a standalone narrative, and as a result, it does not have the same level of popularity as the series books that have made Anne Rice famous.

I believe it is often disregarded and somewhat ignored by her fan base as well as the broader media. This is a disservice to a magnificent work of literature. It reminded me a lot of the Witching Hour from her more well-known Mayfair Witches series as I read it. Any admirer of that novel would be doing oneself a disservice if they did not also read this one.

From the first page, Anne Rice pulls you into the narrative of Azriel, a powerful spirit who is the hero, and narrates it from his point of view. In true Anne Rice form, she transports you back in time to a world rich in color and personalities, this time to Babylon, to learn how Azriel came to be the spirit that he is.

It's a fascinating tale of love, beauty, treachery, murder, and the eventual triumph of good over evil. With amazing and convincing character development, the narrative extends beyond merely Azeriels, and I'll leave the plot to you, the reader of this article, to discover on your own. The novel's climax is a feminine one that comes in a quick sequence of progressively more satisfying waves.

This tale has finally validated a notion I've had for well over a decade. Anne Rice is an artist, much more than a plain novelist or a star author. To read one of her novels is to give her permission to use your mind as a canvas. You may be certain that if the name on the cover is Anne Rice, the scenes she will imprint on your mind will be as bold, gorgeous, and unforgettable as any renaissance masterpiece.

Warning: There are spoilers ahead; if you don't want to read them, proceed to Final Thoughts.

Azriel is a terrifying story of an outcast Jewish residing in Babylon who had the awful fate of being the next favored of the powerful god Marduk. The temple priests notice Azriel and devise a plot for King Cyprus of Persia to seize Babylon without violence.

Azriel's father gives him to the priests in exchange for the promise that the Hebrews in Babylon would be permitted to return to Jerusalem, which makes this scheme succeed. Azriel is to perform the part of Marduk at a ceremonial, a role that invariably ends in death.

Because a witch's enchantment separates Azriel's spirit from his body at death, death isn't precisely what fate has in mind for him. As a result, he transforms into a genie or Servant of the Bones.

Azriel is paged by several different masters over the course of two millennia, but it is not until the 1990s that fate grants Azriel with a chance for atonement. Gregory Belkin, a terrorist tele evangelist, has devised a devious strategy to seize the power of a new global government.

He calls Azriel to assist him in carrying out his scheme. If Gregory succeeds, Azriel understands what will happen to the planet. The genie compels his "master" to engage in a battle that will determine humanity's fate.


Final Thoughts:

Anne Rice is a very vivid and demanding tale-teller who utilizes words as a magical method to fascinate her audience, and readers will give her a lot of credit for that. Her vampire mythos informs and helps her understanding of a genie's mind but it was fascinating as always.

Servant of the Bones is a fantastic piece of fiction, despite the fact that it is not as arcane as some of her past works. The author deftly weaves together themes of horror and techno-thriller into a unique and thought-provoking story. This piece will pique the interest of fans of The Mummy.

Basically, if you're a fan of the Vampire Chronicles, you'll enjoy it. It has the same components as the original. It's the same image with a different filter applied to it. The Chronicles were not re-written by her. She worked on them until they were perfected.

This is not a vampire story, and it has nothing to do with the Witches of Mayfair. Although this may not sound like an Anne Rice novel, it is a move into other areas of conventional horrors, such as her work about The Mummy Ramses the Damned. This is still a well-written novel with a compelling plot.

The narrative revolves around a conversation between a ghost and a human. The spirit only wants to be free, but the story would be doomed if others had other ideas. This aids in the progression of the story.

Anne Rice is an excellent horror storyteller. The narrative was enjoyable, and I would suggest it to everyone.


Synopsis:

“In a new and major novel, the creator of fantastic universes o vampires and witches takes us now into the world of Isaiah and Jeremiah, and the destruction of Solomon's Temple, to tell the story of Azriel, Servant of the Bones.

He is a ghost, genii, demon, and angel--pure spirit made visible. He pours his heart out to us as he journeys from an ancient Babylon of royal plottings and religious upheavals to Europe of the Black Death and on to the modern world. There he finds himself, amidst the towers of Manhattan, in confrontation with his own human origins and the dark forces that have sought to condemn him to a life of evil and destruction.”

Taltos Summary


The Review:

Taltos is the third novel in Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches series; however several of the characters appear in her Vampire Chronicles series as well. The trilogy comes to a close with this fantastic novel. It's a well-written novel, and I was dragged into the plot as usual. Anne Rice has a knack for capturing and holding the reader's interest from beginning to conclusion. I'm planning on re-reading all of Anne Rice's works in the near future. Despite the fact that I've read every single one of her books. I was always excited when she released a new book, but sadly, she is no longer with us, and I now have a significant gap in my reading because few authors can match her ability to create literal magic.

A fantastic novel! It did leave a few strands hanging, but this was done on purpose since the loose ends were finished in future Anne Rice books such as Blackwood Farm and Blood Canticle, and it was a fantastic way of expanding and connecting the universes of her novels.

Rowan keeps her chilly, arrogant demeanor, but I can't help but sympathize with Lasher after reading this book. For me, Yuri was a terrific character. He's adorable and devastating at the same time. And, as expected, Ashlar is really appealing. I feel that adding him to the tale gave readers a better understanding of Lasher and his actions. Much of what had been confusing about Lasher becomes evident when Ashlar tells his narrative.

In my opinion, the way she ended the story was eerily wonderful. Some people believe that this book series has run out of energy or is simply not as excellent as the others. It may look that way if you skimmed it, but I feel that if you invest time with this book and really understand what Anne Rice is trying to impart to you, you will find it just as captivating as virtually all of her previous novels.

I was fortunate in that after reading the first book, The Witching Hour, I was able to read the Lasher and then Taltos, the third book in Anne Rice's excellent trilogy, back to back because all three of these books were already accessible at the time. I was not disappointed once more!

Anne Rice makes it easy to believe that such a family of witches exists, with an equally long history of incest, killing, fortune, and authority, similar to the Mayfair family, residing in New Orleans' gorgeous, yet rather an eerie Garden District.

Anne Rice is a brilliant storyteller, and the final book in the Mayfair Witches trilogy was as fantastic as any other of her books. I feel compelled to reiterate myself in defense of this excellent author. I read and appreciated all three books in order, and the ending of this one was particularly satisfying.

Some readers were dissatisfied with these novels, and in some cases, her whole body of work. However, it's conceivable that these people feel that writing a book is as straightforward as reading one. At some point, they should give it a go. It's not easy at all. On the other side, Anne Rice makes it look easy. So, if big books and sagas aren't your things, simply read or move on.

Many writers irritate me when they force me to read extended paragraphs, and in some cases pages upon pages, describing how the room or garden looked and smelt, but with Anne Rice, it makes sense, and I don't mind since not all tales and locations require this, but Anne Rice's books do.

In some instances, her carefully selected sentences seem like poetry, which draws the reader into the remainder of her stories. I enjoy reading long novels, which is why I enjoyed them so much. To mention a few places, I was brought to New Orleans, Scotland, and New York. What may possibly be the issue? I enjoyed reading these books and was immediately hooked into the plot from the first page of the first installment.

Ash was one of my favorites! I wanted to meet him since his persona was so kind and otherworldly! That's incredible! I'd like to meet a character from a book! I appreciate how she brings the characters to life on the pages and then keeps them alive at the same time throughout all of her work.

The novels were excellent, and I would suggest all three to anybody who appreciates strong writing. Anne Rice never refrains from unpleasant subjects like rape, abortions, and incest. Her writing style is right on, and the characters she creates are real people. They have distinct personalities, which everyone who reads her books will notice.


Final Thoughts:

When Anne Rice explores the Taltos' history, she rediscovers her greatness once more. This is a genuinely magnificent, spellbinding, and all-encompassing book. For me, this is certainly top-tier popular fiction writing. I was really impacted by Ash's story, and I'm sure the finale will be equally as affecting for many others. Overall, I'm pleased with how the trilogy concludes.

Almost all of the loose ends are pulled together with brilliance and highly imaginative literary prose. Overall, I preferred the first three Vampire Chronicle volumes, but Anne Rice has genuinely crafted top-notch books with a plot that is both incredibly original and just a moving, interesting, and captivating read with the Mayfair witches trilogy.

I definitely recommend reading all three of these novels in the sequence in which they were written and intended to be read, if you dare and aren't easily scared, however they are all fantastic enough to read on their own, without the other two! But, as always, I strongly advise against it.


Synopsis:

““NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Taltos is the third book in a series known as the lives of the Mayfair witches ... Their haunted heritage has brought the family great wealth, which is exercised from a New Orleans manse with Southern gentility; but of course, such power cannot escape notice ... or challenge ... [Taltos] is a curious amalgam of gothic, glamour fiction, alternate history, and high soap opera.”—The Washington Post Book World

Taltos continues the epic occult saga that began with The Witching Hour and Lasher. Taltos takes readers back through the centuries to a civilization part human and part of wholly mysterious origins, at odds with mortality and immortality, justice and guilt.””

Lasher Summary


The Review:

The Mayfair Witches trilogy continues with Lasher, the second volume by author Anne Rice. To put it frankly, The Witching Hour was unusual; Lasher is bizarre to the point of insanity. In this novel, we follow the lives of the main cast, the family, and the familiars. Birth, bondage, death, sex, and history collide in a horrific collage of seemingly lucky interactions. Is it fate that these big events take place? Is there a chance the Witches may choose a different fate? Should they come up with their own? Did I say anything about Christian blasphemy? So it's up to you to make a decision. This enjoyment is a self-destructive emotional and cognitive practice. Kudos to the author, as usual. A fantastic performance!

After finishing The Witching Hour, I felt like the ending was off, and that there must be more books. I had no idea it was a trilogy at the time. I was busy at the time and couldn't read properly, but the plot gripped me, and I devoured the volumes like they were candy. It's a unique blend of science and fantasy, and the main characters were engrossing, albeit not always easy to relate to because of the weirdness.

Before I continue, I need to clarify something. This is not the series' first book. Before returning to this book, please read the first one The Witching Hour. You won't understand or enjoy it if you don't. And keep in mind that the first book in the series needs to explain a lot of stuff so that you can continue reading the next book (Lasher)and so on (Taltos) with a full understanding of what is what, how is how, and who is who. It means that the book is large and may seem tedious to some readers who are unfamiliar with Anne Rice's writing style, but trust me when I say that she is amazing once you get used to it.

If you enjoyed the first book The Witching Hour, you will want to continue reading the Lives of Mayfair Witches series. This book is much more unconventional than the first. Is it entertaining? - Yes, however, it may be a bit lengthy for some readers. I've read a lot of books, and these are an excellent sample of what you may pick up after finishing a few really fantastic novels/classics. They're just easy to read and, to some extent, interesting. The excessive amount of sexual content may turn off some readers, and obviously, it is not suitable for anyone under the age of eighteen.

This novel expands on the family tree, both in terms of present family members and the depth and history of prior generations of the Mayfair Witches. I was disappointed by the lack of chemistry between Michael and Rowan, which didn't appear until towards the conclusion and appeared scant.

I understand that author Anne Rice needs to create the setting for the trilogy's last novel, Taltos, and the passages do mention Michael and Rowan, but I'm missing them.

Without giving anything away about the plot, the chapters on Julien's life were some of the most enjoyable.

Excellent continuation of the first book, fleshing out the characters and providing backstory for Lasher. Anne Rice's ability to generate a feeling of atmosphere, as usual, sets the tone, and her descriptions of New Orleans capture every facet of that metropolis.

There is no repetition in this sequel, which some readers found tedious in the first novel. However, you will need to read the first book in order to comprehend this one, but it is well worth it! Lasher and Taltos are gems, and you won't be able to put the books down once you've picked these up. Just start reading the series. You won't believe what awaits you!

Warning: Spoilers ahead... Lasher has a lot to offer. The sequel to "The Witching Hour" picks up just where the first novel left off, with a cliffhanger finish. Lasher is alive and well, and he is about as terrible and horrifying a creature as there has ever been, yet he retains a terrifying innocence and sincerity.

He's just as cunning and vicious as he was as a spirit, and it turns out he's a distinct species from humans who wants to repopulate the planet with his own race.

We discover some fascinating facts regarding the Mayfair witches' and Michael's bloodlines. We meet Rowan, who is still torn between her feelings for Michael and her fascination with Lasher and what he is.

A prophecy is given, as well as a lengthy flashback from Julien's spirit, so you know where the tale is going. Lasher also has a major flashback scene in which we learn his whole past. There's a lot of excellent old-fashioned gothic horror, as only Anne Rice can describe it.


Final Thoughts:

The narrative of Lasher continues in book two of the Mayfair Witches Series, and the plot only gets better. It's full of intriguing characters, plot twists, witches, demons, and history, as are all of Anne Rice's stories. A well-written novel with a fantastic location in New Orleans. This is the second book in the series that I strongly recommend.

In this collection, Anne Rice hits close to home for me. It's enticing and unsettling, and it's a selection that will stick with you. Michael, like Aaron Lightner, has rapidly become one of my favorite characters. This is a must-read. This is not for the faint of heart. Definitely not for teenagers!!


Synopsis:

“At the center of Anne Rice's brilliant novel, the beautiful Rowan Mayfair, queen of the coven, must flee from the darkly brutal, yet irresistible demon known as Lasher. With a dreamlike power, this wickedly seductive entity draws us through twilight paths, telling a chillingly hypnotic story of spiritual aspirations and passion. 'Behind all the velvet drapes and gossamer winding sheets, this is an old-fashioned family saga - Anne Rice's descriptive writing is so opulent it almost begs to be read by candlelight' - "The Washington Post Book World".”

The Witching Hour Summary


The Review:

Anne Rice's novel The Witching Hour tells the story of a witch family in New Orleans. It's a slow read since it's more like a history than a book, as it takes the reader back to early Scotland and then into the 1970s. It was a bit monotonous at points, but don't assume it's simply dull because if you appreciate Anne Rice's books, you're already familiar with her writing style and how she begins a saga, and this is a tale with a lot going on.

It took me a long time to finish this book, not because it was difficult or uninteresting to read, but because I was immersed in other books at the same time, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to recall who was who owing to the length of these books and the number of characters involved. I'm so relieved I persevered! The finale, on the other hand, did not appeal to me at first. But then I realized that this is the first of a series, but I don't believe Anne Rice intended for it to be when she began writing this novel.

However, it retained my attention; regrettably, the history of Mayfair tends to drag on. But, as I discovered later, the background and history are crucial to comprehend the work. This would be my recommendation if you're searching for a book to keep you entertained for a while. If you're looking for a short read, avoid this one and return when you're ready to engage in a tale (series).

Anne Rice's future writings will be infused with the Mayfair ancestry that is linked to this spiritual aspect. Blackwood Farm is my second favorite novel, and I adore how the Mayfair ladies are always linked with the vampire ancestry. It's a sophisticated web that's incredibly alive, fluid, coordinated, and never-ending. I adore her writing style, and I believe this book is the finest representation of Anne Rice's best work.

You might like this novel as much as I do if you enjoy history, romance, mystery, suspense, and some genuinely creepy happenings.

It's a fantastic novel. If you liked the Vampire Chronicles, you'll love the Mayfair Family and their tumultuous past. I was completely intrigued with the family's origins, which began in Scotland and culminated on First Street in New Orleans. This is a narrative about powerful women, matriarchy, magic, and sex, among other things.

It was well-written and intriguing, and it gave me just the right amount of shivers. I like the author's depictions of New Orleans, Mayfair's vast past, and the enigmatic Talamasca. Anne Rice, for the most part, does an excellent job of fleshing out her characters. I admit to becoming increasingly perplexed by the ever-expanding family tree, and I ultimately stopped remembering all of the Mayfair predecessors because I was reading so many other novels at the same time, but it's not a simple chore even if you're only reading this one.

I can honestly say that I have read and enjoyed every book Anne Rice has ever written, but this one had such a strong hold on me that I never let go.

In this book, there are a lot of different tales going on. Witch burnings, the Renaissance, emigrating to the New World, and the Jazz Age are all examples of historical events. After all, this is a saga that spans over 300 years.

There's the youngster, who was literally kidnapped from birth. The spirit that bestows prosperity and power while plotting its own destiny. Women who have been used and rejected. A lady who is so wrapped up in her own righteousness that she feels her actions are not only acceptable but essential. And a witch dead set on breaking the curse that had been placed on the family.

Then there's New Orleans, and then there's the House. In its own special way, this city is unlike any other in the world. Even now, streets, buildings, graves, people, churches, and, it seemed, even the air, are all different. A location from the Old World that has been transplanted to the New.

Yes, this is a huge book, but it is utterly engrossing, a story that you can easily lose yourself in. It's difficult to say how many storylines are going on here, but they all revolve around Rowan Mayfair, the last of a long line of powerful witches. Rowan is a brilliant neurosurgeon who was adopted. She lives in San Francisco and is clueless about her biological mother.

Other accounts include that of Michael Curry, a guy who nearly drowned but now possesses unusual psychic abilities. And, The Talamasca, a paranormal research organization committed to the never-ending history of the Mayfair family, which stretches back 400 years.

One of Anne Rice's best qualities is that she painstakingly analyzes her history and can write excellent historical fiction that takes the reader to that period. Scotland and Holland in the 1600s, the Caribbean Islands in the 1700s, and New Orleans in the 1800s and beyond are the settings in this case. Rich and beautiful detail, fleshed-out characters, and vital sub-plots abound. It's all completely enthralling!

This is not a book for children or teens under eighteen year old, since it contains strong sexual themes. It becomes pretty sci-fi towards the end. Also, don't anticipate a neat, tidy, and predictable conclusion because it is just the start of a series and not an actual ending to a book.


Final Thoughts:

In almost anybody else's hands, all of the threads of this narrative would be a knot so twisted that it would take a knife to untangle. A really large knife. I am amazed at how she does it so flawlessly.

It has a historical tone to it as well as elements of horror and science fiction. From the time I started reading the rich descriptions of the Garden District homes' design, I was hooked. And the ladies of each age are all remarkable in their own way.

This was a fantastic book with complex plots and well-developed characters. It held my attention throughout the story and left me eagerly anticipating the next installment, "Lasher." In my spare time, I like to read or simply spend the time. I read to travel to other planets, kingdoms, and places. A strong character (or characters) enhances the "journey." The imaginative world-building and attention to detail combine to immerse you in the world of the characters. This book accomplishes all of these goals. This is a novel that I would suggest to any genre reader. Witches, indeed!


Synopsis:

“"[A] huge and sprawling tale of horror." —The New York Times Book Review

Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches—a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women.

Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale that challenges everything we believe in.”

The Mummy or Ramses the Damned Summary


The Review:

The Mummy or Ramses the Damned by Anne Rice is about Ramses. In many respects, Ramses is unlike any of Anne Rice's other male characters. He's not as cunning and destructive as Lasher, as moody as Louis, or as high-maintenance as Lestat. Of course, the fact that he may have a couple of thousand years on them may be a factor. He is also a solar creature, unlike his ghosts and vampiric brethren. Ramses is a thoughtful, intellectual man with a strong sense of fairness.

He is overwhelmed by the future when he awakens from a self-imposed slumber that takes him back to Cleopatra's time. He wakes up to automobiles, trains, newspapers, scientific discoveries, telephones, moving images, and aircraft, to name a few. Is he stressed out? Rebuking? Frightened? No. He's awestruck, enthralled, and, above all, ecstatic. He wants to see and do everything instantly!

I know I appreciated every aspect of this book. It was amazing to read. Anne Rice's writing is filled with emotion and passion, and her descriptions transport the reader to the places she portrays, immersing you in her story and enticing you into a world you'll never want to leave.

Her works entice the reader to want to be a part of them. Julie's demeanor makes you feel the world is a great place, and Ramses is a character you fall in love with straight away. This book has the ability to make a reader's heart sing as well as hurt, and it instills in them a desire for justice in the world.

Like a Tanith Lee novel, this book is written in a nearly poetic tone. The characters, as archetypes of wickedness, lethargy, attractiveness, and so on, have a fairy tale aspect to them. While this may easily go awry, she manages to make it work and do so nicely.

I know that this narrative is not for everyone, yet she always asks well-informed questions about life and its significance. It is nevertheless a wonderful novel, despite the fact that it might be predictable at times.

This is without a doubt one of my favorite Anne Rice books. It's refreshingly distinct and adds a new spin to the traditional mummy tale. The wonderful atmosphere Anne Rice creates in Edwardian London and Egypt is maybe my favorite aspect of the story. The characters are well-developed and believable, and the reader is immediately drawn in. The variation on the traditional mummy story offers a new kind of terror than the standard waddling monster of Hollywood's golden era.

Anyone who has seen the movie version of The Mummy (1932) with Boris Karloff will be familiar with the plot of this novel. It takes place in the early 1900s when the British had a greater effect on Egypt than they do now, and massive excavations were taking place, with the discovery of several tombs and antiquities.

We have an older guy and his aide on-site, and they are opening a tomb with scant care for the curses etched on the door. Inside, they discover a spotless tomb complete with manuscripts, jars, and the obligatory sarcophagus.

The story involves his daughter Julia and some more people related to him and what happens to all of these characters once the story actually moves forward.

In simple words, some of it is similar, but the primary distinction is that this mummy is not malicious and does not wish to murder everyone it encounters. One more primary difference is that it is not a mummy, but rather an indestructible man.

Anne Rice was really creative in allowing him to absorb the culture and technology of the period, and in picking the beginning of the twentieth century when technology was still in its infancy and still explainable to the curious mind.

The characters were all well-written, which was to be expected given that this was an Anne Rice novel. Then there's the family's clever but unhappy acquaintance, a lonely but married gay who is getting on in years and knows Ramses' secrets.

The story is set in Egypt and England in the 1920s. Anne Rice's writing is descriptive, and it made me feel as if I had been transported to another century. I can still picture the English drawing room with its thick carpets and gorgeous curtains if I close my eyes. I can sense the sweltering desert breezes and an ancient Cairo populated by British officials wearing white clothes and gowns.

Of course, the success or failure of the work hinges on the reality of its key character, Ramses. Anne Rice once again exceeds all expectations as she portrays the eternal man's life, loves, successes, and failures. Ramses is a guy we can comprehend, unlike her vampire characters, who are creatures with reasons that are distant from the reader's perspective.

He is a full-fledged human being. We are hungry, but he is always hungry. We are in love, but he has been in love for ages. He bounds while we walk. We can get to know him, despite the fact that he is enormous in every sense.

Anne Rice is the queen of immortality. She's allowed us to view the lengthy, harsh, sad, beautiful, and dirty history of humanity through the eyes of a variety of unkillable entities over the years. She is most known for introducing the vampires into the twentieth century, but she has also written about werewolves, angels, demons, spirits, aliens, and even a genie. The fact that she also did her own rendition of a mummy narrative gets lost in the swirl in this eternal collection.

Which is a great shame, since The Mummy is a fantastic novel. Anne Rice doesn't quite reinvent the stereotype as she did with vampires and werewolves, but she does exactly what she does best: she takes the theme of an immortal creature and turns it around to create a deep thinking, feeling being, giving us history, romance, and excitement in the process — and in the process, she manages to inject vitality and sexuality into a dried withered hollow shell of a decomposing body.


Final Thoughts:

I've always regarded Anne Rice's books to be fascinating and enjoyable. She is a master at suspense and dragging you into a tale to make you forget about reality for a brief period of time. She had a way of making you feel linked to all of the book's characters, not just the main ones.

This book is ideal for anybody who likes all things, Mummy, from the Boris Karloff classic through contemporary films. Ramses the Damned is both immortal and human at the same time.

No one compares to Anne Rice when it comes to capturing the atmosphere; anywhere and everywhere she takes you, you'll be able to smell the flowers and feel the breeze as she portrays it.


Synopsis:

“NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Ramses the Great returns in this “darkly magical” (USA Today) novel from bestselling author Anne Rice

“The reader is held captive and, ultimately, seduced.”—San Francisco Chronicle

Ramses the Great lives!

But having drunk the Elixer of life, he is now Ramses the Damned, doomed forever to wander the earth, desperate to quell hunger that can never be satisfied—for food, for wine, for women.

Reawakened in opulent Edwardian London, he becomes Dr. Ramsey, an expert in Egyptology. He also becomes the close companion of voluptuous, adventurous Julie Stratford, heiress to a vast shipping fortune and the center of a group of jaded aristocrats with appetites of their own to appease.

But the pleasures Ramses enjoys with Julie cannot soothe him. Searing memories of his last reawakening, at the behest of Cleopatra, his beloved Queen of Egypt, burn-in his immortal soul. And though he is immortal, he is still all too human. His intense longings for his great love, undiminished over the centuries, will force him to commit an act that will place everyone around him in the gravest danger. . . .”
