Product Description Having completed the two cycles of legend to which she has devoted her career so far, Anne Rice gives us now her most thoughtful and powerful book, a novel about the childhood of Christ the Lord based on the gospels and on the most respected New Testament scholarship.
The book’s power derives from the passion its author brings to the writing, and the way in which she summons up the voice, the presence, the words of the young Jesus who tells the story.
From the Hardcover edition.

Christ the Lord, Out of Egypt December 21, 2008 Don M. Montgomery (Destrehan, LA) The book was received on time as promised. It was in the good condition as stated.
It Speaks To The Heart. November 4, 2008 H. Metlen (ca) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a picture of Jesus - as a young boy - that fits comfortably into the character of Christ as found in the Gospels... and yet the creative detail imagined to fully render that character brings a fresh light and joy to the subject. The heart of this book testifies to its author's spirit of humility and grace.
Those who know the Lord will love this story. For those unfamiliar with Christ, what an introduction to the possibilities of his undocumented early years! Thank you Anne, for moving us.
