I told a a “friend”/acquaintance of mine that I picked up an Anne Rice vampire book really expecting to enjoy it but after struggling through it decided that she was just a really bad writer. Very poor.

Since the dawn of time, they’ve feasted on the masses – secure, invulnerable, protected. . .

Even bloodsuckers need sleep. This time, the nightmare comes for them. . .
For completeness, a hat-tip to the original: Roky Erickson – Night of the Vampire

>” When their blood is poisoned, they are forced to abandon this ideal.
The ending suggests:
Moral purity may be impossible in a corrupt world.
Sometimes survival requires compromise.”
