CALLED OUT OF DARKNESS
Reviews
"If Rice didn't acknowledge the contradictions between faith and reason, her book would be another simplistic, 12-step testimony. Instead, Rice's memoir shows what true belief really involves. It exacts a price."
-- LA Times
"This is the very affecting story of a well-known prodigal's return...Called Out of Darkness is the vivid, engaging tale of the journey of a soul into light."
-- Chicago Sun-Times
"Called Out of Darkness: A Spiritual Confession is rich in both poetic simplicity and liberating confessionals. This memoir is not to be missed."
-- East Bay Literary Examiner
"I am not a Christian and I normally don’t read what I would call Christian books. They don’t appeal to me, they don’t interest me and I normally pass them by in the bookstore...[But] I picked up [Called Out of Darkness] up this afternoon and it's beyond wonderful."
-- Jamieson Wolf
"Rice could rival C.S. Lewis as a popular apologist for the faith." Click for the full review.

"As a long-time reader of Anne Rice’s, the impetus she presents here makes me want to re-read many of her prior works. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks the inspiration and motivation behind the bestselling novels they’ve read."

"Nothing short of magnificent...What a real blessing, what a vulnerable sharing."
--Flos Carmeli (also an additional post about how humans learn)
"A lovely, intelligent book."
--Pop Matters
"Even if you don’t consider yourself to be a religious person - even if you are not a Christian - read this book. Anyone can appreciate the message contained in "Called Out of Darkness." It appealed to me especially because it is a thinking person’s approach to faith."
--Edge Provincetown
