Hi Tom.
This was precisely my problem with the anne rice books. I liked some of the
ideas and descriptions of different vampires and their habbits, but the
concentration on the romantic aspects of vampires was just annoying, ----
indeed the point where I utterly gave up was reading my second novel, the
vampire armand where there is a detailed description of how much a six year
old boy enjoyed doing you know what with an adult man, ---- who I believe
was supposedly a vampire (though really, blood drinking would've been less
disturbing).
While I admit I do have something of an over sensativity to that sort of
thing in fiction (I had to skip past several passages in the dresden
novels), anne rice just went waaaaay! too far for my taste, particularly
because as you said yourself, the association of drinking blood and
eroticism is just plane weerd anyway!
Beware the grue!
Dark.
