He followed that with his best-selling series of young-adult science-fiction books, The Lorien Legacies.<\/p>\n<p>Frey also found time to reimagine the life of Jesus Christ in his 2011 \u201cfiction\u201d book, The Final Testament of the Holy Bible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t ever want to have a career that you can pin down,\u201d Frey says animatedly in a mid-afternoon interview at the head office of his Canadian publisher. \u201cI always admired (the director) Stanley Kubrick because he never did the same thing twice. If you look at his films, they\u2019re completely different from each other. It was just him, doing whatever he wanted. I always thought that was the way to do it, so that\u2019s what I\u2019ve tried to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>[ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lfpress.com\/2014\/12\/03\/james-frey-rewrites-his-story-with-endgame-trilogy\" target=\"_blank\">click to continue reading at The London Free Press<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from The London Free Press James Frey rewrites his story with &#8216;Endgame&#8217; trilogy By\u00a0Mark Daniell, QMI Agency When it comes to career reinventions, author James Frey is in a league of his own.
