Readers of The Five People You Meet in Heaven will recognize the warmth and emotion so redolent of Albom's writing, and those who haven't yet enjoyed the power of his storytelling, will thrill at the discovery of one of the best-loved writers of our time. Nicholas Sparks is the best-selling author of several beloved novels, with over 80 million copies in print worldwide. Nicholas Sparks: We first met years ago, when Tuesdays with Morrie and The Notebook were just out. Tuesdays was the first nonsports thing I had done, and it was written only to pay Morrie’s medical bills. I never imagined novels or the audience I’ve been blessed to find. MA: Five People mostly takes place in heaven, to teach Eddie, the protagonist, to appreciate his life on earth. NS: You wove the story of Alexander Graham Bell’s invention of the telephone into this novel. MA: It felt quite natural to weave a mystery—perhaps from all those years’ writing sports that count down and reach a climax. And yes, I definitely think if a town today claimed to be talking to heaven, it would be on twenty-four hours a day on cable news and the Internet. NS: Small towns—like Coldwater in First Phone Call —often paint the backdrop of your novels. MA: I was raised in a small town—local high school, one great pizza place, everyone knowing everyone. But storywise, Five People means a great deal, because everyone told me I was crazy—don’t write a novel.

Tyndale, $13.99 paper (350p) ISBN 978-1-4143-1956-8. Chris Fabry (Dogwood)--evangelical fiction author of more than 60 titles and coauthor of Left Behind: The Kid series--offers a lovely, moving, present-day account of sacrifice linking to the famed novel Les Misérables. Johnson, little June Bug's father, is obliged to face his past in short order as a series of unexpected media events force his hand and reroute his life. Readers of Fabry's well-received novel Dogwood (2008) will recognize many of the same themes here: the search for home and family; forgiveness and faith; and the best way to navigate the repercussions of old choices and wrong turns. Familiarity with the Hugo classic, though, certainly isn't required to enjoy this involving novel, and once again, Fabry inserts enough plot twists and dramatic tension to keep readers turning the pages. Some clichéd prose may distract some, but the story of love's infinite power to shape and sustain will draw readers, particularly those seeking fiction with Christian themes.
