Soldier of Gideon

Casca Series, Book 20

By: Barry Sadler

Narrated by: Gene Engene

This is audiobook #20 in the Casca Series.

Casca Longinus, cursed by Christ on Golgotha. Condemned to outlive the ages and wander the globe a constant soldier. Forever fighting and surviving, he must wait for Christ to return.

Casca returns to the Middle East, but it is now the 20th century, and he has signed on to fight a religious war. Outnumbered and poorly equipped, many of the recruits have never seen combat. Casca expects a slaughter. It won't be the first time he has seen his comrades turning the merciless desert sands red with their own blood. But how could the Eternal Mercenary have known that he has joined the most devastatingly efficient army of the modern age? Now, what he imagined to be a slaughter could just end up a victory.

it's a casca book...

Barry Sadler writes a decent tail, as with most of these they have a formula and don't expect much to be different about it. it's a decently written, has decent characters moves at a pace which is always true of casca books, I wouldn't sit there and listen to or read more than one of these at a time because they are repetitive. but that doesn't mean they're not a heck of a tale. I wish Saddler a live long enough to come to some kind of conclusion for the series...
