Rezension zu „Christ the Lord The Road to Cana “
Praise for Christ the Lord" ""Riveting. . . . Rice's book is a triumph of tone -- her prose lean, lyrical, vivid -- and character. As he ponders his staggering responsibility, the boy is fully believable -- and yet there's something in his supernatural empathy and blazing intelligence that conveys the wondrousness of a boy like no other. . . . With this novel, she has indeed found a convincing version of him; this is fiction that transcends story and instead qualifies as an act of faith. Joins Nikos Kazantzakis's The Last Temptation" of Christ" and Endo's A Life of Jesus as one of the bolder re-tellings." --"Kirkus Reviews" (starred) Praise for Blood Canticle" ""When Anne Rice releases a new book in The Vampire Chronicles series, cheers from her huge fan base can be heard everywhere." --"The Edmonton Journal"
