Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana

Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana is the second novel in Anne Rice's Christ the Lord Series. It is the follow-up to Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt. Two other books in the series have been promised by Rice to follow.

Plot Synopsis

Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana begins with Christ's life during the winter before his baptism and concludes with the miracle he performed at the Weddings|wedding in Cana, turning water into wine.

Critical Reception

  • "The Road to Cana perches on the brink of blasphemy. But it succeeds in treating Yeshua's humanity as an essential part of his divinity…Ms. Rice, when inspired, can deliver hypnotic, incantatory prose that celebrates Yeshua's ascension." - The New York Times
  • "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 history—Christ the Lord." - All Things Considered
  • "Convincing and compelling. Another winner." - Kirkus
  • "[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
  • "Anne Rice knows how to make that old story come alive for her readers." - The Times
