IMO, after Queen of the Damned, her vampire work became too redundant and I still don't understand why Lestat and Louis swapt their personnality between the 3rd and the 5th books. The only book more recent I liked was Pandora, because it was a real new take of the series. And the Mayfair series should have stopped, still IMO, after the second ones.
Frankly the works I've prefered in Anne Rice bibliography are Interview with the vampire (as a stand alone), Servant of the Bones and the Sleeping Beauty trilogy (can't remember the pseudonyme she used for it).

Plus my personal pet peeves (common with the Buffy serie) : Vampires shouldn't fall in love with their food. Do I fantasize about my sirloin steak or my lasagna ? No.

On her rant, I can understand she's upset but as others said it's too excessive to be sincere.
