		Rice's second book, THE SNOW GARDEN, proves that Christopher Rice is in his own right an excellent author, with more than a passing flare for the mysterious.

		When Bookreporter.com's reviewer Sofrina Hinton wrote about Rice's debut novel A DENSITY OF SOULS, she offered, "Christopher Rice's evolution as a writer will be something to see." Take a look at THE SNOW GARDEN if you want something to see.

		But Christopher Rice's bold and startling debut is as far removed from his mother's supernatural fiction as could be.
		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.
		Rice has plenty to say on homophobia in both American high schools and the wider world, but it is about more than that.

		Rice does a fantastic job in keeping the reader on their toes and wanting more from this book.
		He is also able to stand on his own merits of storytelling instead of hiding underneath his mother's, Anne Rice.
		Rice can stand on his own two feet or if he writes like his mother, pick up this book and you will learn that he has the talent to write true fiction stories, not just hype and hoopla.

		The publisher most likely relied on Christopher's last name to sell novels (and was write in coounting on it) but there are minor fixes that needed to be made before the story was published.
		Christopher has proven that he has a remarkable imagination, as his mother has, and can weave a good story.
		Christopher Rice makes his mother seem like Shakespeare (and I am no fan of the elder Rice by any stretch of the imagination).
