== Penerimaan dan analisis ==
Setelah memulai debutnya pada tahun 1976, ''[[Interview with the Vampire]]'' menerima banyak ulasan negatif dari para pengkritik, sehingga Anne mundur sementara dari genre supernatural. Ketika ''[[The Vampire Lestat]]'' memulai debutnya pada tahun 1985, tanggapan dari kritikus maupun pembaca lebih positif, dan edisi sampul keras pertama buku ini terjual 75.000 buku. Setelah diterbitkan pada tahun 1988, versi sampul keras awal ''[[The Queen of the Damned]]'' dicetak sebanyak 405.000 buku.<ref name="Ferraro" /> Novel ini adalah pilihan utama dari [[Persekutuan Sastra Amerika]] untuk tahun 1988 dan mencapai posisi #1 di [[daftar The New York Times Best Seller]] dan bertahan di daftar itu selama lebih dari empat bulan.<ref name="Ferraro" /><ref name=Hunter>{{cite book|last=Hunter|first=Jeffrey W.|title=Contemporary Literary Criticism|volume=128|date=2000|publisher=Gale Cengage|isbn=0787632031}}</ref><ref name="Ferraro" />
 
Novel Rice diterima dengan baik oleh banyak anggota komunitas [[LGBT+]], beberapa anggota di antaranya menganggap tokoh vampirnya sebagai simbol [[alegori]] dari isolasi dan keterasingan sosial.<ref name="Ferraro" /> Demikian pula, seorang pengulas menulis untuk ''[[The Boston Globe]]'' mengamati bahwa vampir dari novel-novelnya mewakili "yang berjalan teralienasi, orang-orang dari kita yang, karena pilihan atau tidak, berdiam di pinggiran."{{sfn|Day|2002|p=43}} Mengenai masalah ini, Anne sendiri berkomentar, "Sejak awal, saya memiliki penggemar gay, dan pembaca gay yang merasa bahwa karya saya melibatkan alegori gay yang berkelanjutan ... Saya tidak berniat melakukan itu, tetapi itulah yang mereka rasakan. Jadi, bahkan ketika Christopher adalah seorang sayang, saya memiliki pembaca gay dan teman gay dan mengenal orang gay, dan tinggal di distrik Castro di San Francisco, yang merupakan lingkungan gay."<ref name=NPR />
