Reviews
"A masterful book written by an extraordinary writer at the height of her powers. It deserves to be read for that reason alone. But it also deserves to be read to better understand the most dynamic and important person in human historyChrist the Lord." David Kuo, All Things Considered "Convincing and compelling. Another winner." Kirkus Reviews (starred) "[A] beautifully observed novel . . . Rice undertakes a delicate balance here: if it is possible to create a character that is simultaneously fully human and fully divine, as ancient Christian creeds assert, then Rice succeeds." Publishers Weekly (starred) "Anne Rice knows how to make that old story come alive for her readers." Susan Larson, The Times-Picayune "A powerful account of Christ's humanity while staying true to orthodox Christianity. Her well-drawn, believable supporting characters add to a vivid captivating story . . . a novel that both religious and secular audiences can appreciate and enjoy; highly recommended for all fiction collections." Library Journal (starred) "Rice, whose books have sold more than 75 million copies, couples her writing talents with the zeal of a recent convert and a passion for historical research in Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana , an intriguing followup to Out of Egypt . . . Remarkable for Rice's prose and rich sensory detail." Cindy Crosby, Christianity Today "[ The Road to Cana ] succeeds in treating Yeshua's humanity as an essential part of his divinity . . . And Ms. Rice can deliver hypnotic, incantatory prose that celebrates Yeshua's ascension. . . . Many readers will be lured by the promise of simply rendered holiness to The Road to Cana ." Janet Maslin, The New York Times From the Hardcover edition., "A masterful book written by an extraordinary writer at the height of her powers. It deserves to be read for that reason alone.

Synopsis
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Anne Rice's second book in her hugely ambitious and courageous life of Christ begins during his last winter before his baptism in the Jordan and concludes with the miracle at Cana. It is a novel in which we see Jesus--he is called Yeshua bar Joseph--during a winter of no rain, endless dust, and talk of trouble in Judea. Legends of a Virgin birth have long surrounded Yeshua, yet for decades he has lived as one among many who come to the synagogue on the Sabbath. All who know and love him find themselves waiting for some sign of the path he will eventually take. And at last we see him emerge from his baptism to confront his destiny--and the Devil. We see what happens when he takes the water of six great limestone jars, transforms it into cool red wine, is recognized as the anointed one, and urged to call all Israel to take up arms against Rome and follow him as the prophets have foretold. As with Out of Egypt , the opening novel, The Road to Cana is based on the Gospels and on the most respected New Testament scholarship. The book's power derives from the profound feeling its author brings to the writing and the way in which she summons up the presence of Jesus., Anne Rice's second book in her hugely ambitious and courageous life of Christ begins during his last winter before his baptism in the Jordan and concludes with the miracle at Cana.
