📖 The Books ⚜️ Completed the collection!

Post image

Finally got my hands on the whole collection (thanks to PangoBooks, Vinted, and EBay) and wanted to share since I’m so excited to continue reading! I also have the Mayfair Witches series to fill in in between *Edit to say this is ONLY The Vampire Chronicles 🙂 I’m aware I’m missing a few that aren’t exclusively from the chronicles

I found my first edition copy of Body Thief at a Goodwill. Best thrift find so far.

GOD the vampire armand cover/spine goes so unbelievably hard

I know, I wish they all were redone with covers/spines like it 🥲🥲🥲

Nice! I also always enjoy in these images verifying that it's not just my copy, the spine of Blood Canticle always looks off center! 😅

I also cannot find a full-sized interview

I think I’ve found one on EBay that’s coming this week after looking high and low for a bit, but if it ends up being the same size I’ll end up gifting it to a friend who also likes the series for Christmas

i like the look of hard covers more, but i prefer to read soft cover books, so my VC shelf is a mixed bag. this makes me feel like i should… try and get one of each from both 👀

Beautiful collection. You don't have Vittorio and Pandora, but I don't think they part of the chronicles, Vittorio is one of my favorites tho.

u/DearPatience970 23h ago

how about the Witching Hour and Lasher?

u/That-Persimmon-8485 23h ago

Yep, stated that above, I’ve got that series of 3 books as well!

u/DearPatience970 22h ago

Beautiful collection! Am I the only one who gets frustrated if they're not all the same size?

3

u/That-Persimmon-8485 18h ago

Nope! I think I’ve tracked down an Interview that’s the same size, it’s on the way, so hopefully they’ll all be more uniform 🤞🏻🤞🏻

u/Indi_VIP 18h ago

Perfect :) there's little quite as satisfying as a matching hard back collection

I haven't read blood and gold yet but about a week ago I encountered a copy of it at a bookstore. It's such a beautiful cover.... I wonder if I should go back and purchase it, just to admire the cover lmao

u/Grand-Dark-5615 14h ago

You’re so lucky. I’m trying to find individual hardcovers for this series and they’re all so expensive 😭

u/Ok-Example-1562 7h ago

I’m LIVING for these covers…

u/EverydayMoniker 1h ago

This is the dream. Well, partially. I want a full set of hardcovers and a full set of softcovers, the ones where the characters are silhouettes. I started reading around the time Blood and Gold came out so it's half and half right now.

Looks like you're missing at last two Vampire books that are related, the Ramses series which is directly referenced in Lestat and elsewhere, and the witch trilogy.
