Anne Rice, the author of all those vampire novels, is a former atheist who found her way back to Catholicism, and wrote a book released in 2005 called Christ The Lord: Out Of Egypt. The book, a novel, is written in the first person (as Jesus), and it's an excellent book, well worth the read ( Go here for reviews at her site: http://www.annerice.com/ChristTheLord-OutOfEgypt-Reviews.html ). Anne has an Authors Note at the back of this book which recounts her journey; what she says, especially about history and the miracle of the Jews, can be a real boost to one's faith.
I just found out that Rice has recently released the second novel, of what will be a trilogy, entitled Christ The Lord: The Road To Cana. You can go here to read reviews, including an opening review by Peter Kreeft: http://www.annerice.com/ChristTheLord-RoadtoCana-Reviews.html . I'm looking forward reading this one...
