Publisher's Summary

Louis de Wohl was a distinguished and internationally respected Catholic author whose books on saints remain best sellers around the world to this day. A panoramic historical novel of the last days of Jesus Christ, The Spear tells the full story of all the participants involved in the dramatic execution, including the seldom remembered Roman soldier who thrust his spear into Christ as he hung on the cross. With a dramatic narration by Richard Ferrone, The Spear is a must listen for anyone interested in the history of the New Testament.

More form louis de wohl please

enjoyable perspective of an unsurpassed historical event. Characters are gripping and real, easy to listen to and finish. at times the author narrates a little to heavily with his dialogue between characters. still it makes you think.

Fantastic retelling from a captivating new angle!

I recommend this book to anyone who's even mildly interested in Christianity. It gives life to the characters found within the gospels and does so with stylistic prose and a stellar audio performance. Highly recommended.
