" I enjoy historical fiction and thought this was very satisfying. The characters are interesting and the time period well developed. It is inspiring and gave me food for thought about living then and seeing the impact of Jesus Christ on Jerusalem and its inhabitants. "

" I LOVED this book. It's about a man who learns the truth about Jesus. There is a sweet love story intertwined, but the main part is the conversion of the young Roman who realizes there has to be more to life "

" THIS IS A LITTLE BIT OF A HARD READ, THE WORDING TAKES A LITTLE BIT TO GET USED TO. BUT I LOVED THIS STORY, FASCINATING TO ME ABOUT A TIME PERIOD THAT RELATES TO CHRIST WITHOUT REALLY PUSHING HIS TEACHINGS, IT REALLY MAKES YOU THINK OF ALL THE PEOPLE AND THEIR STORIES IN THAT TIME PERIOD. "

" very interesting perspective on a known event "

" One of my all time favorites- a classic! "

" The robe by Lloyd C. Douglas (1942) "

" This is one of the best books I've ever read. Story told from the viewpoint of the Roman soldier who won Christ's robe at the crucifixion. He wonders what manner of man Christ was and travels the places that Christ traveled and meets the people He knew to try and find out. Great, great book! "

" I loved learning about the life of Christ from the perspective of the Roman Tribune who was there for the crucifixion. It was very moving to watch his transformation. "

" this one will make you think, feel. And See. "

" Overall it was a good book. It started well, was a little slow in the middle, but ended well-- in fact, I thought the ending was very good. Now I have to watch the movie again! "

" When Jesus was being crucified, the Roman soldiers cast lots for his robe. This book tells a fictional story of what may have happened with the robe and the soldier who won it. I thought is was great. "

" A telling from the viewpoint of the man who won Christ's robe at the gambling. That subject alone was what made me read this. Great dialogue, makes you think. Yeah, its long, but its also a classic...for a reason. "

" I started this book back in high school... never finished. I picked it back up last week: WOW!!! Loved it. "

" Wonderful story. It helped me to see the life of Jesus Christ in another light. Inspiring and educational. The author did a fantastic job. "

" This book was very interesting. It got a little dry for me when they were explaining Jesus' miracles, but it was an interesting take on them. "

" great book to read around Easter. Loved visiting the Holy Land and walking where Jesus walked even though it was only in the book. "

" One has to remember that this is a piece of fiction, but a wonderful book at providing insight as to what it may have been like to be living while Jesus Christ was alive...and in those years soon after he ascended back to heaven. <br/> <br/>Great read! "

" Lloyd C. Douglas is one of my favorite authors. Lots to think about and a good feeling in the end. "

" Beautifully written! I love the language Douglas uses. I feel like I get to experience Marcellus' conversion throughout the story. The agony and joy becomes your own. "

" Picked this book up again after I started a few chapters several years ago. Despite my mother's recommendation (it being a historical fiction on Jesus), it's a wonderful read. Depicts a believable ancient Rome and Jewish lifestyle. "

" Read this years ago, but a very good book. "

" Excellent book and reminiscent of the Mark of the Lion series. <br/> "

" Incredibly well written story about a Roman soldier who acquired the robe at Christ's crucifixion and the effect of that experience on his life as he retraces Christ's steps. I loved it start to finish. This is one old friend on my shelf I will read and re-read. "

" This book was very interesting and thought provoking for me. It is a little long and lots of characters "

" I remember really liking this when I read it in college. <br/> "
