CASCA: Just doing a job on the African continent,
By James D. Crabtree "Doc Crabtree" (Fort Leavenworth, Kansas) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The African Mercenary (Casca, Book 12) (Paperback)
This volume of the Casca series written by the legendary Barry Sadler takes place (mostly) in Africa, where a mercenary named Casey Romain is engaged to overthrow the brutal dictator of a small country. Casey Romain is actually Casca, the Roman legionaire who pierced Christ's side with his spear while He was on the cross. Casca is doomed to live until Christ's return fighting war after war until that happens.
In this book Sadler has created an interesting cast of characters who fight alongside Casca and his ability to write great action scenes is certainly evident in the African Mercenary. It is rather annoying that the author avoids discussing Rhodesia at the beginning, although it is almost certain that some of the action takes place there. This is the first of these I've read in 20 years but like Casca himself, it seems timeless. |
