In this book, I have been inspired by Lew Wallace, the author of Ben-Hur, who created a great and seminal classic which both Christians and Jews can enjoy. Anne Rice, Angel Time. Series: The Songs of the Seraphim 1). Thank you for reading books on BookFrom. It is my hope that this book will appeal equally to Christians and Jews, and to readers of all faiths, or no faith at all. I have endeavored to paint an accurate picture of the complex interaction between Jews and Christians even during times of danger and persecution for the Jews.

Anne Rice returns to the mesmerizing storytelling that has captivated readers for more than three decades in a tale of unceasing suspense set in time past—a metaphysical thriller about angels and assassins.The novel opens in the present. At its center: Toby O’Dare—a contract killer of underground fame on assignment to kill once again. A soulless soul, a dead man walking, he lives under a series of aliases—just now: Lucky the Fox—and takes his orders from “The Right Man.”Into O’Dare’s nightmarish world of lone and lethal missions comes a mysterious stranger, a seraph, who offers him a chance to save rather than destroy lives. O’Dare, who long ago dreamt of being a priest but instead came to embody danger and violence, seizes his chance. Now he is carried back through the ages to thirteenth-century England, to dark realms where accusations of ritual murder have been made against Jews, where children suddenly die or disappear . . . In this primitive setting, O’Dare begins his perilous quest for salvation, a journey of danger and flight, loyalty and betrayal, selflessness and love.From the Hardcover edition.

I heartily recommend that regardless of where you stand on your appreciation of Anne's writings about her faith, that you take the time to read The Joy of Y'at Catholicism by Earl J. Higgins (Pelican, 2007). On page 14 is brief summary of an essay that Anne wrote for Time magazine. "New Orleans author Anne Rice, writer of vampire novels, tells of how she left New Orleans and Catholicism but felt the compelling need to return to both. She explains that being in New Orleans, living again in the city where she was raised, made her feel love for place, family, and God."

PLACE: I am reminded of a line from the song "The Circle of Life" from Disney's "The Lion King", which reads "...til we find our place on the path unwinding..." In old New Orleans, before the Civil Rights Era, the idea of place was that you were put in the equivalent of a strait jacket once you grew up and went to work. Your education, your skills, and (sadly) your race defined your place as well. I get the impression from Anne that she is content to have the comfort of her Garden District/Uptown neighborhood around her. Still, I have a sense that she seeks to encourage others to look beyond the old strait jacket, and keep New Orleans ever growing, ever changing, ever astonishing the rest of the world (the rest of the world that does not expect anything much from New Orleans).

FAMILY: In reading Anne's novels, and this equivalent of "The Confessions of St. Augustine", it has become clear to me that to her, even if all else is falling apart around you, the family is what you cling to. New Orleans is an extended family. You know when you arrive here that you have come home.

GOD: In her novels, Anne struggles over and over with forming an image of God that makes sense in both the material and the spiritual sense. Here, in Called Out of Darkness, I get the impression that she is still searching. I wish her well.

Indeed Anne's descriptive memories of her childhood growing up in a large Catholic family brought back many memories. The ones most cherished however were those of the church with the beautiful descriptions of the stained glass windows, the altar, Holy Communion, the Stations of the Cross..... The Crowning of Our Blessed Mother. All, I hold closer to my heart than I ever realized. Although I've had a faith crisis in the last few years that was short lived I have walked with the Lord for forty years. I did not know him in my childhood although, like Anne, if anyone had asked, my response would have been positive. It was only when I was in my early thirties, when I truly asked him to come into my heart, engaged in a personal relationship with my Lord Jesus, that I knew. I've sought him ever since as I so need him in every aspect of my life and this book has given me a even deeper hunger.
Having taken many Bible studies over the years I find that although I see where Anne is coming from in her assessment of the totality of embracing all faiths, all peoples, I still very much believe that as the scriptures clearly state we are to love our fellow man but we are also to speak truth. Therefore truth comes from the Word of God, these are the words of Jesus. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." Then verses 17 & 18 "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."

This speaks so clearly that to have eternal life with our Father in heaven , it is through his Son Jesus. We can't pretend otherwise!!
We are all sinners yet we always strive to abide by His word, loving one another, speaking truth in love, though others might perish, therefore allowing light to come into any darkness.

Through this book much 'light' has come into mine and for that I thank you. It truly blessed me!!

In His Joy, Linda Morris

I felt that her last book of the vampires wasn't written in her usual 'voice.' I can forgive her for that, since her husband died that year. That caused me to leave off reading her novels for some time. When I finally got around to reading her Christ novels, I found them a little dry and still out of character for her (though the second one was better). In this novel, it seems she is returning to her old self. Not quite there, but still much improved over her last three works. It was a quick and easy read leaving me wanting more. I found the time traveling stuff reminiscent of Dark Shadows and the main mortal and angel characters reminded me of characters from Supernatural. (Both shows that I love) As of posting this review, I have just ordered the sequel to this book. Anne masterfully crafts what I would consider the most important part of a good story - character development. Can't wait for more. And I plan on getting to her werewolf novels afterwords.
