DESC: Queen of the damned no more! Acclaimed gothic fantasy/horror writer Anne Rice (INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE) describes her rediscovery of her Christian faith in CALLED OUT OF DARKNESS. Rice was raised Catholic in New Orleans, a city infamous for its occult spirit, and she discusses how her early experiences informed her writings, as well as her path to a renewed religiosity. In addition to this memoir, since her conversion in the late 90s, Rice also initiated a religiously focused series, which includes CHRIST THE LORD: CALLE D OUT OF EGYPT.
