We all know the name Anne Rice, she is the queen of vampires after all, but few of us know her assistant, Becket. A former Benedictine monk with a master’s degree in theology, Becket is Anne’s right hand man, and an author himself. His vampire tale The Blood Vivicanti features characters and concepts by both Becket and Anne, and is slated to be released as a 6 part series. Find out more about The Blood Vivicanti below.
Description:
Mary Paige is a 17-year-old genius. Her photographic memory has made her smarter than anyone else, and more alone and lonely too. Her parents do not understand her. Her peers reject her.
But her life changes during her senior year of high school. Mary Paige changes schools and it changes her life. Now she attends a special Academy of the Arts in a quiet mountain village, Idyllville.
Little does anyone know: Idyllville is also the home of the Blood Vivicanti.
Mary Paige’s photographic memory will make her one of the most dangerous creatures on the planet, once she becomes a part of this new breed of blood drinker who eats memories.

Becket I cant wait to read your book. I love Anne’s work and this seems just as intriguing
Anne you are still my all time favorite writer. I am so excited to see how this collaboration between you will be. I have very high expectations from the author I most adore and my new found love with Becket and his style. Thank you both for not completely banning me after my misunderstanding and outburst about Becket’s page. You are both so loved and appreciated!!
…this isn’t Anne’s page. This is Vampires.com, neither Becket nor Anne have any part of this site.
He couldn’t have asked for better help, but Becket is an intriguing man in his own right!
True enough. His experiences with Anne aside, his own life, (from what I’ve read), has been quite enough to pen this book. Cant wait to read it. ;)
Why does it always have to be a 17 year old girl … it’s the same thing again and again .
Should they make it a 20-year-old girl? I have an entire collection of vampire books featuring leads who are in their 20s. I have a few in their 30s. I have lots of books with teen leads. Every age has been done to death in vampire fiction. Which age do you consider new?
Amazing I can’t wait :)
i would love to read this but unable to do so as dont have the thing for audio books so heres hoping it goes to paperback good luck with it
If you have a kindle you can have your kindle read it out loud… it reads it in a creepy robot voice though.
The plot sounds very generic to me. Feels like I have read blurbs like this over and over in the last few years.
So, I guess I’ll give this a pass.
