TIL that Elizabeth Montgomery voiced one of Anne Rice's erotic Sleeping Beauty books

en.m.wikipedia.org The Sleeping Beauty Quartet - Wikipedia

In 1994, the abridged audio versions of the first three books were published in cassette form. The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty was read by actress Amy Brenneman. Beauty's Punishment was read by Elizabeth Montgomery (known for her role in the ABC situation comedy Bewitched) as Beauty with Michael Diamond as Tristan, and Beauty's Release was read by Montgomery with actor Christian Keiber reading as Laurent.[2] A compact disc version of the audiobooks was read by Genviere Bevier and Winthrop Eliot.[3]

TIL there are erotic Sleeping Beauty books...
- They're something. I actually learned about the book series itself in the nineties from my surprisingly sexually open ex-mother-in-law. 😆
  
  So, are they good? Involve vampires? As creepy as the title implies?
Anne Rice shits fire on fanfics and yet she wrote a...let me get this straight: A Sleeping Beauty book with erotic themes.
- You absolutely have a point. I guess she felt one lost her money and the other made her money. 😄
  
  Incidentally, she published the Sleeping Beauty books under a pseudonym. Not sure when it became widely known that she was in fact the author.
