Casca the Eternal Mercenary

Casca Series, Book 1

De: Barry Sadler

Narrado por: 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.

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.

the original Casca.

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

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.

Great Opening Book

I love this series. I read it almost 30 years ago. Looking forward to the next book.

Grabs your Attention

This book captures your imagination through The years of history As described by a mercenary who's condemned to walk the Earth. The narrator was awesome And keeps you engaged through slightly different changes in voice texture while reading the different parts.

Eternal Soldier, Eternal Story

My brother introduced me to Casca in 1982 and I’ll never forgive him. It lead me on a lifelong journey of torment that had me visiting the book store every week to see if a new book had come out just so I could read the book in a day and rereading the old books again. Now, almost 30 years later, the journey begins again as I listen to book one, a kid once again, and relive the excitement I felt back then. Thank you Barry for bringing Casca into the life of an impressionable boy and thank you brother for lending me your first copy of Casca.

it's from the 70s

it is a decent piece of fiction. must realize that it is from the '70s and at times you know it's a product of its generation but it is a good book and read well by the narrator

Love the casca series

I could read ( listen to) the casca books over and over again. keep them coming.

Hard Boiled, historical fiction.

Completely off par with the ancillary spin off stories of encounters and lifes altered by Jesus Christ. This ain't Ben Hur! What makes this book a guilty pleasure, is its assault on the current filters of Feminism, and Political Correctness. The word craft of this tale, punches one in the gut like gulp of two fingers of Old Crow whisky. Unapologetic Pulp fiction....Mac Bolen meets Conan the Barbarian.
