Listen to the discussion below.

Established mainstream thriller and Hollywood script writer Andrew Klavan is a relative newcomer to the Christian market, but has made an emphatic debut with his young adult "Homelander" series for Thomas Nelson.

The first two titles in the four-part adventure have sold nearly 50,000 copies in hardcover, with the third installment due out in November and "Homelander" just optioned for a film by the makers of The Hurt Locker and the "Twilight" films.

With a Jewish and atheist background, Klavan surprised many people when he embraced Christianity a few years ago--through a question prompted by reading a book by British novelist Patrick O'Brien.

Klavan tells more about his journey to faith and talks about how is has changed his writing in a conversation with Christian Retailing editor Andy Butcher.
