Langton is an actor and audiobook narrator.įor the first time, I feel like I have an inkling of what Christ's life was like, with whom he socialized, what he ate, saw, did, and where/and whom he taught. Stuart Langton does a good job narrating the book. The book is twenty-two hours and two minutes. I read this as an audiobook downloaded from Audible. This is a great old fashioned historical novel. The book is set in the first Century Rome and Judea. The book is long which allows Douglas to build his characters in a large landscape. The story follows Gallio and his Greek slave, Demetrius, and how the robe affected their lives. Gallio won Christ’s robe as a gambling prize after the crucifixion. The story follows a Roman Officer, Marcellus Gallio. Back in the 1950s I read Douglas’s book “The Big Fisherman” and enjoyed it also. I thought it would be interesting to reread the book as I do not recall much about the details of the book. I think I have seen the movie a time or two.
The book was originally published in 1942.
