It says they’ve optioned the rights to 11 of them, but, including Pandora, there’s 13 books. So which books are not included?
I think it’s IWTV*, Blackwood Farm, and Blood Canticle, maybe Merrick, bc AR has said her Mayfair/VC hybrid novels “haven’t worn well over time.” She’s even told ppl to ignore them when reading PL and PLROA. I bet she’ll at least touch on IWTV in flashbacks, but we know she loved movie!IWTV, and probably doesn’t want to try to reinvent the wheel on that one.
It could be that she’s not including PL and PLROA for now.
Does anyone have a statement from her re: which books aren’t included?
*Anne Rice previously noted that the series likely will not touch on the events of “Interview with a Vampire,” but will instead pick up with its sequel “The Vampire Lestat.” [X]
Full list:
The Vampire Chronicles
Interview with the Vampire (1976)
The Vampire Lestat (1985)
The Queen of the Damned (1988)
The Tale of the Body Thief (1992)
Memnoch the Devil (1995)
The Vampire Armand (1998)
Merrick (2000) – arguably a Hybrid Mayfair/VC since one of the main characters is a Mayfair.
Blood and Gold (2001)
Blackwood Farm (2002) – Hybrid Mayfair/VC
Blood Canticle (2003) – Hybrid Mayfair/VC
Prince Lestat (2014)

Pandora (1998)
Vittorio the Vampire (1999) – he’s never been included as a VC vampire.no she said that its going to start with the vampire lestat then move chronologically also that the vampire lestat will most likely be 2 seasons (she said possibly 3) and interview only being one season
- (I didn’t watch the stream yet, I gotta do that)
- @roselioncourt informed me that someone else owns the rights the the Mayfair books, which probably includes the hybrids.
- Oh good, I really would love to see them address IWTV, we need a new Claudia!
