When I first read it, I really loved it. It was interesting to me because Rice made it a point to continually describe how plain and even unattractive Pandora was when she always fawned over the beauty of her male vampires. It made Pandora stand out because she didn’t have the otherworldly beauty of the others. What a great little edition you have.

Gorgeous book. You have quite a find there. It’s amazing how it does look like a little diary.


MangoCapital2913

Yeh I love it, vittorio is the same it fits since they’re not novels that they were writing like the other vampires, they’re the diaries of them


twirlingparasol

Wait what? I totally disagree, I think Pandora was described as incredibly beautiful.

One of my favorites as well! Pandora is fascinating!

I recently read this and loved it

Same. The amount of detail Anne put into her books is amazing. It must have been so much fun to devote all that time to research and getting to learn about these great historic periods.

I remember enjoying it when I read it but it did not leave much of an impression. Perhaps it's time to revisit it?


MangoCapital2913

Yes it’s so good, and the quoting of lady Macbeth is pretty interesting so many similarities between Pandora and her

My favorite after Queen of the Damned. :)


MangoCapital2913

I love it too

Such a great book. I think it's one of the best in the Vampire Chronicles. You just wanna **be** Pandora.

I miss the fever days of when these were just being published. I couldn't wait to get my hands on the newest story. Rest peacefully Anne. You are sorely missed.

I agree, that was all my friends and I talked about in her heyday. I was beyond thrilled when we went on a vacation to New Orleans and got to see her house and her masoleum in the cemetery. Have you watched the new Interview With The Vampire? It is really good, the actors wonderful and they are very careful to pay homage to Anne

I re read the series every year, I love these books

I loved Pandora. I was disappointed that it didn't cover so much of her life. I felt like Blood and Gold detailed every night of Marius' life. I would have been down for a similar novel about Pandora.


MangoCapital2913

Same but it’s still so good


MangoCapital2913

My second favourite behind queen of the damned


LeChatNoir04

Wow, beautiful cover


Stella_Noire_2008

Pandora was awesome! I loved her story and wish she had more detail like Armand and Marius


elektrik_noise

Underrated book of hers. Pandora was awesome. Good snag grabbing a first edition version 👌


MangoCapital2913

I love love Pandora, I got all the vampire chronicles in first edition hardback


mlk81

Nice that you like it. Where did you get the knowledge that alot of people don't like it?


MangoCapital2913

It’s very unpopular by most fans or not liked


mlk81

Alright, just curious how you know that?


MangoCapital2913

A lot of vampire chronicles I’ve interacted with have said that ??? Like I don’t know how else to answer it


mlk81

Alright, Ive been reading these along time and never found anyone who said that he or she didn't like that book so I was curious how you had the ingo that alot of fans disliked it.


MangoCapital2913

It might be who you interact with but in this subreddit I’ve seen a lot of people disliking it


mlk81

Alright, thanks for the clarification


MangoCapital2913

Of course you’re the fifth or sixth person I’ve met here who likes it
