Casca the Eternal Mercenary

Casca Series, Book 1

By: Barry Sadler

Narrated by: Gene Engene

This is audiobook number one in the Casca Series.

When they flew Casey into the hospital at Nha Trang, the medics were sure he would die. That he didn't was only the first surprise. The second, and bigger one, was that Casey had been fighting for 2,000 years, ever since that day on Golgotha when he thrust his lance into the side of the man on the cross. "Soldier, you are content with what you are. Then that you shall remain until we meet again." Thus does Casca's journey begin, a man who cannot die, does not age, and knows no skills but those of battle.

Barry Sadler knew how to write. War and soul come alive. it is a living view of history, life, and war.

❤

Interesting storyline. I have had this series recommended to me many time and I see why.

A fascinating listen.

Narrator Gene Engene brings the story to life like a well told fireside tale. The story has it's slow moments but is wrapped up very well in my humble opinion. Yes, I will be buying & enjoying more of the series. Recommended.

Excellent telling of the first book in the series

First, full disclosure, ive been a casca fan wince seeing them at the Waldenbooks in Christown mall where i worked in the late 80s. This narrator does and amazing job of bringing the pages to life. Looking forward to listejing ti more of them

Historical fiction at it's best !

I sometimes read pure history books but also enjoy a good scifi/fantasy book on occasion. This one gave me a dash of both and I enjoyed Sadler's writing style and development of both the character and the story.
