Casca Desert Mercenary

Casca Series, Book 16

De: Barry Sadler

Narrado por: Gene Engene

This is audiobook #16 in the Casca Series.

Casca Longinus, cursed by Christ on Golgotha, condemned to outlive the ages, wandering the globe as a constant soldier. Forever fighting, surviving, unable to die, and waiting for Him to return.

Casca finds himself caught up in the ageless struggles of the desert tribes. With a hardcore group of international mercenaries, Casca assaults a fortress on a mountaintop high above the blistering Algerian desert. The mission is to rescue the son of a wealthy munitions dealer and his wife. Even Casca's "dirty dozen" might not be able to overcome 200 of the toughest men the desert ever spawned.

a building block of an eternal story

if you have read, listen to, the stories of casca up until this point, you have been part of a character building that lasts an eternity. hearing parts of a life long lived. seen through the eyes of a soldier. the fact that these were written in the early '80s, I believe this book in 1986, and is still able to hold up even in 2025 is a good reflection of storytelling. I hope you enjoyed this book as much as I did.

Another great book.

I have no idea why Casca, it’s not become a movie series. It would be a franchise equal to the 007 series
