. Ask for missing segments were needed first, But give it some time 12 hours after the post .
I am also posting with a larger line count than I used to, as this makes
more space on the servers for the overviews (headers). Which in turn means
the posts stay on there longer and there can be more of them, a win win
situation if there ever was one, but, it could cause problems with some
servers :( time will tell.
Personal Note
=============
I spent a little time on chapter 12a, in an effort to clean it up a bit, but I had no luck.
Other problems took over, in the lack of my DSL connection dpopping, I hope it os sorted out
and I will continue with the VC posts.
Thanks again goto Magman
Book Description
================
Did you ever wonder where all those mischievous vampires roaming the globe in Anne
Rice's Vampire Chronicles came from? In this, the third book in the series, we find out.
That raucous rock-star vampire Lestat interrupts the 6,000-year slumber of the mama of
all bloodsuckers, Akasha, Queen of the Damned. Akasha was once the queen of the Nile
(she has a bit in common with the Egyptian goddess Isis), and it's unwise to rile her
now that she's had 60 centuries of practice being undead. She is so peeved about male
violence that she might just have to kill most of them. And she has her eye on handsome
Lestat with other ideas as well.
If you felt that the previous books in the series weren't gory and erotic enough, this
one should quench your thirst (though it may cause you to omit organ meats from your
diet). It also boasts God's plenty of absorbing lore that enriches the tale that went
before, including the back-story of the boy in Interview with the Vampire and the
ancient fellowship of the Talamasca, which snoops on paranormal phenomena. Mostly, the
book spins the complex yarn of Akasha's eerie, brooding brood and her nemeses, the
terrifying sisters Maharet and Mekare. In one sense, Queen of the Damned is the ultimate
multigenerational saga
