"These books transparently reflect a journey through atheism and back to God. It is impossible not to see this. They reflect an attempt to determine what is good and what is evil in an atheistic world. They are about the struggle of brothers and sisters in a world without credible fathers and mothers."

(Anne Rice, nata Howard Allen Frances O'Brien, scrittrice di romanzi gotici, horror e fantasy; New Orleans, 4 ottobre 1941 – Rancho Mirage, 11 dicembre 2021)
