New Books from Ann Rice

Ann Rice, acclaimed creator of the southern-gothic vampire genre, (which is currently roaring full bore in sales...especially among teen to YA women), though her Vampire Chronicles series, is following up her first journey into Christian Fiction (Christ the Lord: Out of Eqypt: http://www.annerice.com/ChristTheLord-OutOfEgypt-Editions.html), with a new memoir detailing the rebirth of her faith.

I was so touched by her presentation in Christ the Lord, that it inspired some of the storytelling direction I took with Eye Witness: Acts of the Spirit (http://www.headpress.info/eyewitness2.html) and Eye Witness: Rise of the Apostle (http://www.headpress.info/eyewitness3.html).

Her memoir is to be followed up with a new series of books chronicling the early ministry of Jesus.

Yahoo News just posted this story on the topic:
