    Anne Rice- Christ the Lord out of Egypt.

    If you aren't familiar with Rice; she also wrote Interview with a vampire. It was strange for me to see that this book was by her, but it is worth the read. :] She writes in first person about Jesus's life.

    Be careful of these sort of writings. Most are extra Biblical or anti Biblical. And also are written many times by fringe Left Wing Christians.
