Anne Rice has been staked.
While it wasn't her that ticked me off, her devoted fans made me wish her dead several times just to see the despair in their faces that their favorite series wouldn't be finished... ever.
Stay in the grave, Anne. You wrote about how much coming back out sucked.
Failure of author existence doesn't mean a series has to end. The Flowers in the Attic books, the Mission Earth dekalogy, the Wheel of Time books...all of these are counter-examples.
ReplyDeleteFirst two-three books were okay, but after that she was writing word-count for money. And it showed.
