Synopsis

This abridged audio version of the critically acclaimed novel, Longinus: Book I Of The Merlin Factor by Steven Maines, follows the tale of Gauis Cassius Longinus, the Roman Centurion who pierced the side Jesus with his spear while the condemned one hung from the cross. After that fateful day, Longinus escapes Rome and the priests who want to take the spear and its supposed power for themselves. Longinus follows the Centurion’s life from his love for the prostitute Irena to his mystical studies with the Druids of Gaul. But it also reveals Longinus’ profound spiritual awakening through his Druidic studies and the spear that speaks to him with the voice of Christ.
