Density of Soulsby Christopher RiceISBN 0330492403 (0-330-49240-3)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Density of Souls'Book summary:One might expect A Density of Souls to plough new furrows in vampire territory, given its author is the son of famed horror writer Anne Rice. But Christopher Rice's bold and startling debut is as far removed from his mother's supernatural fiction as could be. That's not to say there aren't similarities in this coming of age novel set in New Orleans and focusing on four friends, weighed down by the baggage of their parents and the aspirations and expectations of the city's affluent society.
At the forefront is Stephen, a young gay man who even now is haunted by the death of his father years before. Stephen is just beginning to realise who he is, his place in both his own world and that of his friends, when childhood allegiances are shattered and old painful memories come bubbling to the surface with shocking and violent repercussions.
Rice's debut is a dark, gloomy and, for the most part, humourless story, but one layered with so much truth and feeling that its hard not to care as the four friends are plunged into a world that forces them to grow up quickly. Stephen's sexuality is the driving force of the novel but he grows stronger as the novel progresses, much more able to accept and deal with it than his childhood companions. The sex scenes are sparse and stark but very rarely graphic. Rice has plenty to say on homophobia in both American high schools and the wider world, but it is about more than that. It's a fable on the power of lies, the corrupting power of secrets and inevitable yet painfully seductive hold that the people, places and events of our childhood have over the rest of our lives. The denouement twists and turns and culminates is an apocalyptic climax but it is a nerve shredding ending to a powerful, brutal, dark and seriously sexy thriller. --Jonathan Weir [via]

Snow Gardenby Christopher RiceISBN 0743470389 (0-7434-7038-9)
Softcover, Pocket Books

› Find signed collectible books: 'Snow Garden'Book summary:The Snow Garden is the second novel from Christopher Rice, author of A Density of Souls. Rice's debut marked him out as a writer of irresistible narrative skills--this was a gothic mystery rich in atmospheric detail and some highly individual characterisation. Similar elements appear in The Snow Garden, but in some ways this second book is even more assured than its predecessor, with the emotional lives of its youthful protagonists (freshmen at Atherton University) delineated with real intelligence. Jesse, Randall and Kathryn find themselves connected by more than just their mutual studies.
In an ice-bound river, a professor's wife has drowned, and the unruffled surface of campus life at Atherton University is becoming agitated. Randall has had an affair with the professor, and revelations are pending in the local press. Rumours grow, and people in the town make connections with a similar death many years earlier, and the deception that binds the three friends together threatens to destroy them utterly.
It would be foolish to deny that the plot does not have strong echoes of Donna Tartt's much-acclaimed The Secret History, but Christopher Rice is very much his own man and such allusions are only momentarily distracting. Perhaps the gothic elements (so skilfully handled here) should not be too much of a surprise, as the author's mother is no less than Anne Rice, doyenne of the epic vampire novel. And as this contemporary horror story moves ineluctably to its chilling conclusion, Anne Rice may not be pleased by the fact that her son's book is considerably more impressive than anything she herself has done in some time. And the pulse-racing set-pieces here will no doubt soon be inspiring a bidding war in Hollywood. --Barry Forshaw [via]
