His first novel, ''[[Magnificent Obsession]]'', published in [[1929]], was an immediate and sensational success. Critics held that his type of fiction was in the tradition of the great religious writings of an earlier generation, such as, ''[[Ben-Hur (novel)|Ben-Hur]]'' and ''[[Quo Vadis (novel)|Quo Vadis]]''.
Douglas then wrote ''Forgive Us Our Trespasses''; ''Precious Jeopardy''; ''Green Light''; ''[[White Banners]]''; ''Disputed Passage''; '' Invitation To Live''; ''Doctor Hudson's Secret Journal''; ''[[The Robe]]'', and ''[[The Big Fisherman]]''. ''The Robe'' sold more than 2 million copies, without any reprint edition. Douglas sold the motion picture rights to this story, though the film, starring Richard Burton, was not released until 1953, after Douglas's death.
His own unhappy experience of filming prompted Douglas, when he produced ''The Big Fisherman'' as the sequel to ''The Robe'', to stipulate that ''The Big Fisherman'' would be his last novel, and that he would not permit it to be made into a motion picture, used over the radio, condensed or serialised. Eventually, ''The Big Fisherman'' was filmed in 1959, starring [[Howard Keel]] in one of his few non-singing screen roles as Peter.
