4.0 out of 5 stars Casca's Brotherhood confrontation, November 26, 2005

This review is from: Casca #09: Sentinel (Mass Market Paperback)

This book covers the late 5th/early 6th centuries in Byzantine Constantinople. Casca begins by saving an Alpine village from raiders then falls asleep for decades in a cave of ice ("The Sentinel"). After saving the village yet again Casca is claimed by a young girl Ireina who is pregnant after being raped. They travel to constantinople and Casca joins the army. Meanwhile the girl and her son are captured by the Brotherhood and things go pear-shaped for everyone. I won't spoil the ending but its bloody, as you'd expect any Sadler story to be.

One of his last good books, this is a story of revenge.
