Overview
An enthralling tale set against the pageantry and decadence of first-century Rome, The Spear of Longinus chronicles youthful tragedy, the quest for revenge, hard-fought military campaigns, and burgeoning love, as well as the mysterious prophecies that haunt Tiberius Longinus - the Roman centurion who speared Jesus of Nazareth on his cross of sorrows.
Unfolding throughout the far-flung reaches of the Roman Empire, the sweeping epic - from the imperial reign of Augustus to that of Vespasian - is a riveting saga of the hero's adventures and his pursuit of the love of Helena Rufinus, his beguiling childhood sweetheart and the heroine of Rome.
Aficionados of Ben Hur and The Robe will relish this historical novel's exotic settings, deadly intrigues, deep friendships, enduring love, and the hero's reluctant journey toward faith. All inexorably intertwine during an era when Rome's pagan emperors vowed to eradicate the Jews and the fledging Christian religion.
