Came here looking for a comment on this! I was like "a bit weird Anne, but some families do that" but then very shortly thereafter she completely lost me at frenching his mother. #nope. Praying they leave that out of the show xD
Poor Nicki. His "inner darkness" described from the beginning felt so relatable, so much like depression and self-destructive behaviour, and each step after Lestat was turned just made things worse for him, it seems. He deserved joy in his life. I wonder how things would have turned out, if neither of them would have become a vampire. Being left behind by who he loved without knowing why and than turning into the dark being he apparently aways saw in himself, even if by own free will, really did destroy any light left.

His name is Frank Muller. Stephen King preferred him to narrate his audiobooks. Unfortunately, in 2002 he had a motorcycle accident that ended his career and he was hospitalized for 6 years before succumbing to his injuries.
You should hear him read The Silence of the Lambs... his voice when reading Hannibal’s dialogue is chilling and so on point. Anthony Hopkins was great in the movie but he doesn’t hold a candle to this dude
I grew up loving the Anne Rice universe..mostly her perfectly created vampire characters who philosophise and debate ethics while they romp through history. What an imagination she has..you can almost believe she is speaking of real beings, those whom only she knows. These Chronicles are amongst the best works of fiction ever written IMO. Thankyou for uploading!
@@joshuagordenier4394 Really? Sorry I edited my previous response because I realised it sounded critical. I am honestly interested in how you know this, thanks.
Wonderfully said, I'm just entering her universe after being a long time vampire lore and story enthousiast. How some conversations between the immortals lhold more tension then some of the biggest battles I've read is truly baffling.
I wonder why Marius would choose to make himself known to Lestat and not his own fledgling whom thought he'd been dead an entire 500 years. Talk 'bout ghosting. Poor Armand lol. Need to find The Vampire Armand after this. Thanks so much for uploading these.
@@stevenpark5950 I started reading Armand, and Lestat, learning more of Marius and Armand's characters, I figured that was most likely the case. I don't blame Marius either. Armand was/is delusional and psychotically obsessed with old religion and satanism philosophy to the point where he's utterly disgraceful and hopeless (where I'm at in the books anyway). Thanks for confirmation though.
@@kitsulu8576 You're so welcome :) The full answer is likely more nuanced (and therefore much more down to your interpretation as a reader imo). I often thought there was an element of shame for failing to protect him, but that's reading between the lines. Marius is a supremely proud creature and I always suspected an unreliable narrator where his own feelings are concerned.
@@stevenpark5950 It's more than that. Even though I have only read "The Vampire Lestat" and "Interview With A Vampire" with regard to why Marius never looked for Armand. Marius never stopped loving Armand but he didn't respect him because of how easily he feel in with the satanic vampires. Armand was violently enslaved as a young boy and up until he got with Daniel he was always trying to find a way to appease his capturers including Marius. He describes Lestat like he was the one who violently destroyed the satanic vampires in Paris, but Lestat didn't do that. That is because that is how Armand sees the world. He begs both Lestat and Luis too basically take him as their slave. That he will do whatever they wish as long as they accept him. In a way he treats Daniel similarly. They argue and Armand didn't want to make Daniel a vampire, but he did amass a fortune apparently solely to give Daniel a life of luxury. He made the night island, but only after he started seeing Daniel. Daniel really can't control Armand, but with Armand's issues he can only be on equal footing with someone like Daniel. Armand would have given all his wealth to Daniel if he wanted it, but all Daniel wanted was to be made a vampire, something Armand promised he wouldn't do to anyone. He did give that to Daniel eventually. It's pretty clear that Daniel thought Armand was in control of everything, but Armand did all of the stuff Daniel described for Daniel without him even being aware of it.
@@darrekworkman5595this is the best interpretation of Armand that I've read, trauma truly broke young human Armand and he carries that trauma to his immortal life, just as Lestat takes his
I didn't anticipate crying like I did when Lestat's friend went the way he did. I swear, listening to the books are so much harder (emotionally) than reading them all. The narrator was such a gifted voice. Bless his soul and Ms. Rice as well. They're both immortals in their own way.
Oh lord 😂 Imagine being in church and suddenly two horrible beasts exploding from under the Holy Altar 🤣 Maybe blasphemy but i find that wonderfully hilarious
The last time I read this book it was over 20 years ago. I read almost all of hers, but I forgot how good they are. Especially with Frank Muller narrating. He really brings it to life. Absolute legend. I keep listening to it right before bed thinking I'll fall asleep to it...and I just end up staying up too late instead lol
Have you listened to Blood and Gold? It's narrated by Tim Curry and is the back story of Marius...it's brilliant. And thank you for downloading this story. I absolutely love this narrator. I believe he also did all of The Dark Tower novels, which are my personal favorite. And he's done a great job here as well!
I love B&G! I have the audiobook read by Roger Reese on my laptop but, It's unfortunately blocked for uploading worldwide. You wouldn't by chance know where to get the one read by Curry?
@@danielmolloy3154 it was on here untill TH-cam found it :( but I'm sure it's floating around the net somewhere. It truly is a wonderful story. The part about Antioch was so rich.
So finally, 36 minutes into part 2, and it just hit me where I've heard this narrator before. I listen to a lot of documentaries; be it crime, science, nature, etc... and it just finally hit me. This is the same narrator of Forensic Files. I'm actually surprised it took me this long. Well, I haven't watched one of those in probably six to seven months.
Yes! Or at least anything with classical instruments. When I was a teen I remember reading the part where nikki played as a vampire for the first time while listening to electric violin music. The ENERGY. Totally agree here
Ann Rice romanticise Vampires how they should be, in a way that everyone can enjoy. Unlike other books such as twilight that only seem to cater to teen fantasy.
The narrator is the best also helps that Anne rice can write her ass off I’ve been listening for two weeks straight (not just this one the whole vampire chronicles) dope!
this is just what i need, to forget about queen of the dammed, (the movie) and i can imagina what a perfect and long movie or trilogy can be made by following this boock.
@@bowlofdiogenes6139 you Really need to see the first one, the queen of the damned is just a vampire comercial Gotik movie, but read the books, prnce LestAt need to exist on a property film.

The bit where Gabrielle buries herself in the great outdoors is implausible. It is one thing to dig a hole in the dirt with your bare hands. It is quite another to lie down in that hole and pull that dirt down on top of you. Think of the time when you may have laid down on a beach and on a whim attempted to cover your entire body with sand. That doesn't work well without help.
Anyone ever read this book first and then read interview with a vampire. Kind of explains a lot of lestat's behavior in the first book. He's quite better the whole time. Add knows it's all doomed from the beginning
There is a Vampire Chronicles series set for 2022 in AMC networks. I believe it's supposed to be the Interview with the Vampire tales. Apparently they own all the rights to Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles and Mayfair Witches, so it sounds like they would maybe lay out the whole story over time. Guess we'll have to see.
1:59:39 2:03:33 "Don't taunt me!" I said. I struck him so hard he fell back wards, chastened, silent. "When it was offered me I said no. I tell you I said no. With my last breath, I said no." 2:35:56 3:00:16 3:11:24 (highlight: 3:16:39 and 3:18:22) 3:33:40 (highlight: 3:35:47) 3:52:39 3:55:58 3:57:51 4:03:13 4:05:09 5:10:20 (highlight 5:11:33) 6:55:00
Are the Mayfair witches books also blocked? I have all the books but I love the audio books I can listen to them while I'm doing work around the house.....
“Come with me into Africa” is what Gabrielle says. I believe this can be correct, even when in northern Africa as it just implies to travel further south/south-west into the heart of Africa
Why isn't Pandora available to listen to on youtube like these are? I loved that book! It was timeless! I want to hear it Narrated by a female voice actor!
😂 lol I love how Armand told lestat he couldn’t destroy him. Lestat cut his fucking head off all he needed to do after that was set him on fire and that would’ve been it for him lol I’ve always despised Armand
After this its Queen of the damned, then Tales of the Body thief, Memnoch the Devil, the Vampire Armand, Merrick, Blood and Gold, Blackwood Farm, Blood Canticle, Prince Lestat, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, Blood communion: The Tales of Prince Lestat, Pandora, Vittorio the Vampire. I love how I just listed the entire series when you asked for one book 😭
pretty sure that's exactly what Gabrielle is considering the panic attack after discovering the hair grew back the next day is very much gender dysphorphia coded
An observation: I originally read the series when it came out. So, decades ago. After watching the first two seasons of IWTV, I decided to listen to TVL. I must say - I was expecting a lot of sexual inuendo that I perhaps hadn't picked up on as a youngster. However, despite all the YT headlines like "Why are all Anne Rice's vampires gay?" TBH, there really isn't any solid indication of their sexuality, and certainly no sex scenes in (the first 13 hours) of this book. All of that overt sexuality seems to have been added by the scriptwriters. I adore both versions, but it's just an observation.
If 1/2 the parents in this world could be 1/2 as loving, strong and supportive as Gabrielle (apology if I butchered the spelling) our world could be a better place for everyone. Too many parents pass on their pain, abuses and horrible things to their children while ignoring the love and support they really need.....
I don't think that Gabrielle is a good mother but she did love Lestat enough to try and understand him even when he is the same in neglecting her wants and needs. To the point that she even love him despite being diffent from him. The fact that Lestat could not even be bothered as to try to endulge Gabrielle even for a while is very poetic although I find it more painful in part that Lestat cannot bring down his pride for the one he loves so much, the one that gave him the tiny bit of light when he needed it the most, and specially when he did not even see the true reason behind the efforts and actions of Gabrielle.

"Don't taunt me!" I said. I struck him so hard he fell back wards, chastened, silent. "When it was offered me I said no. I tell you I said no. With my last breath, I said no."

Future self ?,😂 get help.
@@jameshermes5576 I think she was leaving a bookmark for herself to come back and listen to😂
I love all of these books, thank you so much. Does anyone know where I can find The Vampire Armand & Blood & Gold ect...?
Audible and/or Torrents. I have them all, but they're blocked by YT worldwide. :(
Are the Mayfair witches books also blocked? I have all the books but I love the audio books I can listen to them while I'm doing work around the house.....
@@wendymurphy5708 Yep, they're all blocked. :(
Well that just really sucks 😞 thanks for posting what you've been adding for us.
They should make a movie of the vampire Armand
They are in Cairo and his mother asks if he will come with her to Africa, but Egypt IS in Africa.
“Come with me into Africa” is what Gabrielle says. I believe this can be correct, even when in northern Africa as it just implies to travel further south/south-west into the heart of Africa
This is almost better than a book that I’m so used to no better than yes I’m sure of it
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘 can you post The Witching Hour & the Mayfair series please?
Finally made it to part 2!

Thank you for the sharing of this reading.
I would very much like to find someone do the same
of Servant of the Bones.
Love you for this
Given Hollywood's love of a franchise, I wonder why this was never dramatized?..
AMC recently bought the rights to the vampire chronicles and we should be seeing a tv series within the next couple of years
@@shaybaybayyyy Thanks for the info... we can start a book on the cast list, now!
It was. Poorly
Hollywood has a formula for movies. Rap music, guns, profanity and blatant unnecessary nudity. This has none.
They bastardized the interview with a vampire series! Very agenda based.
Wow 🤩 speechless for once ❤
You look like a vampire yourself in that picture! 😉🌟🫶
♥️ the narrator & she’s my fave author ♥️♥️♥️
This is exactly how lestat sounds to me in the books brilliant ❤
What happened in the first chapters that are missing or did the book start at chapter 6??? 😮 part two 😂 I’m dumb!!
Love these
Why isn't Pandora available to listen to on youtube like these are? I loved that book! It was timeless! I want to hear it Narrated by a female voice actor!
😂 lol I love how Armand told lestat he couldn’t destroy him. Lestat cut his fucking head off all he needed to do after that was set him on fire and that would’ve been it for him lol I’ve always despised Armand
I think he was saying He would have never had the heart to kill him
Gabrielle is one of my favorite characters, only after Lestat.
Thank you so very much🦇❤️🦇
So I've seen interview and listening to this. Witch book is next?
After this its Queen of the damned, then Tales of the Body thief, Memnoch the Devil, the Vampire Armand, Merrick, Blood and Gold, Blackwood Farm, Blood Canticle, Prince Lestat, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, Blood communion: The Tales of Prince Lestat, Pandora, Vittorio the Vampire.
I love how I just listed the entire series when you asked for one book 😭
The guy who read “Alien Covenant” was a joke. He’s good.
Boy, that Lestat is really a mamas boy. Just let the poor woman go already, let her live her own life!
Amazing
Lestat’s mom give trans vibes
pretty sure that's exactly what Gabrielle is considering the panic attack after discovering the hair grew back the next day is very much gender dysphorphia coded
Eh...
More Tom boy feel. A woman who knew what she had to be, wear, and look. But had a desire to be free to do what she wanted.
Ann Rice herself stated in an interview that Gabrielle de Lioncourt was transmasculine. So yeah, they definitely were.
where can I find this interview?
@biib6318 Google. Search for Gabriel Ann Rice and Transmasculine. Or variations of the three. It should pop up.
An observation: I originally read the series when it came out. So, decades ago. After watching the first two seasons of IWTV, I decided to listen to TVL. I must say - I was expecting a lot of sexual inuendo that I perhaps hadn't picked up on as a youngster. However, despite all the YT headlines like "Why are all Anne Rice's vampires gay?" TBH, there really isn't any solid indication of their sexuality, and certainly no sex scenes in (the first 13 hours) of this book. All of that overt sexuality seems to have been added by the scriptwriters. I adore both versions, but it's just an observation.
Are there missing chapter's? Seems to be missing content. Or chapter's are out of order.
I want The Story of Maurius! Does it exist?
The book from his view is called "Blood and Gold"
This is her magnum opus and I see why is just so good
Bruh, please stop lusting after your mom. PLEASE 🙏
So wait... it switched to armands story in the middle of the book? Or is that a mistake?? I'm confused.
If you haven't found the answer yet. Armand shared his memories with them so they what he could offer them and so he could join them

Rip Anne Rice
If 1/2 the parents in this world could be 1/2 as loving, strong and supportive as Gabrielle (apology if I butchered the spelling) our world could be a better place for everyone. Too many parents pass on their pain, abuses and horrible things to their children while ignoring the love and support they really need.....
She is an evil fantasy....simpelton
Yes, more parents who can't even be bothered to teach their children how to read. Brilliant.
Wtf are you talking about. Do you have any memory retention.
I don't think that Gabrielle is a good mother but she did love Lestat enough to try and understand him even when he is the same in neglecting her wants and needs. To the point that she even love him despite being diffent from him. The fact that Lestat could not even be bothered as to try to endulge Gabrielle even for a while is very poetic although I find it more painful in part that Lestat cannot bring down his pride for the one he loves so much, the one that gave him the tiny bit of light when he needed it the most, and specially when he did not even see the true reason behind the efforts and actions of Gabrielle.
@@kylmbnerva145He sent all the comfort he could, saved her from death and indulged her for weeks afterwards, not sure what you are talking about.
Tom Cruise is Lestat he fleshed this complicated character out fully
Honestly who I picture reading Lestat
