FIC REVIEW

“Of Bedknobs and Handcuffs”

by Addie and Artemis

“Of Bedknobs and Handcuffs” is one of the top 10 most read stories on The Forbidden Archive. Addie has four other stories on the Archive (with dozens of others still to be uploaded from the original site) and Artemis is the author of four still to be uploaded fics.

Summary: Lestat and Louis try to hide their relationship from the rest of the coven.

Spoilers: Mentions of events that took place in “Queen of the Damned” and “Memnoch the Devil”.

Allow me to start by saying that “Of Bedknobs and Handcuffs” is pure smut in every sense of the word. It’s a slash fic from start to finish. Fifteen chapters of glorious PWP. And I should point out that it’s not actually finished. It’s an incomplete story that leaves the reader begging, or should I say gasping, for more. Perhaps PWP isn’t the best category for me to throw this piece into because there is an underlying plot here, though it falls to the sidelines and is quickly forgotten when the reader is greeted by some of the most salacious writing to be encountered in the VC fandom.

While this fic may be 80% smut, we are also granted glimpses of Lestat’s complete obsession with Louis with descriptive prose so beautiful that causes the reader to fall head over heels in love with him as well. Artemis’ Lestat and Addie’s Louis are made for one another. These two authors have managed flawless depictions of the characters interlaced with in-depth descriptions of sexual situations that would make even the most avid smut reader blush.

If you can set aside, for a while, the constraints of the universe that Anne Rice created, “Of Bedknobs and Handcuffs” will transport you to a place where anything can (and frequently does) happen!
