As her book tour comes to an end and details of her new book are revealed, Anne Rice has decided to fight against haters who trash authors on Amazon.com, according to Entertainment Weekly.
It has been reported that Anne Rice has signed a petition to require identity verification from the "bullies, trolls, jerks or whatever you call them."
The "Vampire Chronicles" author took to Facebook to state, "Amazon is such a wonderful system and so many go there to offer heartfelt authentic customer reviews of the books they read; too bad that the anti-author bullies have misused and abused anonymity there for their endless preying on writers."
She continued, "They are a tiny minority, true, but to the authors they harass and torment and endlessly attack, they are no joking matter."
"Price Lestat" will be coming out on October 28.
