Review title: vampires rehashed to the point of mediocrity Product review: Rice used to be a good author. Much of "Armand" is a repeat of all we've read before, except for it's continuous, voluminous and tedious referrals to religion and the constant homosexual encounters of the vampires and mortals. These episodes are not even erotic though exceedingly graphic. Religion and gay sex just seem compromised under the same covers. This once avid fan will probably avoid these endless, rambling tomes in the future.

Product review: I usually stick it out through bad movies, but this one I walked out on. It's meant to gross out and offend so every other word is the ... word. It was too much when he described performing ...with his mother. I can only describe this movie as twisted.. but not a "good" twisted. If you could rate a movie with zero stars that's what I would rate this one.

Review title: Fun in the foreign service Product review: While written in 1983, this book is not at all dated. Paul Theroux invents a collection of bizarre characters associated in some way with an Anerican foreign service officer serving in the American embassy in London. The stories are hilarious, satiric, or touching. Theroux is a great author.
