This book is proof that great writing is definitely in your genes. Christopher Rice, son of Anne Rice, has delivered a powerful debut novel. "A Density of Souls" is the story of four friends who are separated when they enter high school; two are jocks, one is gay, and the fourth is the girl who links them all.

The book is very straightforward. It stares with an unflinching eye at the bigotry and violence against homosexuals. There are also several graphic sex scenes. However, this should not deter you from reading this interesting, somewhat sad novel.
