The Robe by Lloyd C. Douglas

2.0

I won't say that I disliked this book, because that would be inaccurate. I rather enjoyed the characters presented and liked getting to know them. But I really struggled to keep reading this. Especially when Marcellus is "looking for homespun", I'm sure the author was trying to show his conversion to Christianity, but to me it was fairly empty and more just words on a page than convincing.

It was definitely an interesting read to consider the perspectives of those at the time just following Jesus Christ's crucifixion. There are many time period explanations that help one to see how the message could have been spread among nations.

I must say though, I am glad it is over and I can move onto a more fast paced book.
