Christian Fiction News: Anne Rice & Tyler Perry

Anne Rice speaks about her second Christ chronicle, Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana (Anne Rice) and her disgust with Dan Brown's Davinci Code.

I think this new book is a very radical book," she said. "The bar of realism is so high, and yet it's so completely orthodox. My faith in the Bible and in Jesus is absolute. I don't rationalize. Everything I write is based on what he does in the Bible and what the Bible tells us about him.

It's a radical accomplishment -- and I don't know whether people will see that -- to combine an accurate history of the period and archaeology and geology and be completely faithful to the Bible and yet write a novel that keeps people turning the pages. I have created an emotional life for him that fits my faith in him as God and man.
