Looking for some info???

Post by riaglo » Thu March 19th, 2009, 6:52 am

Just joined this site. Living in Louisana USA and a proud America even though we just elected a liberal asswipe. Anyhow spend a lot of time offshore in decompression chambers as I am a diver and read a lot " I repeat, A lot of books" Think I have read almost everything available at Most of the major book stores and have had to go online to get e-books to fill in some space.
My question though is this, A friend of mine told me about a series of books. The books subject is I believe Cascus? Supposedely the guy who stabbed Jesus with a spear or something and is destined to live forever. I may have this wrong though so correct me if so. Also he told me the series is about this guy who lives forever and is destined to fight in every war throughout time. The series supposedely goes through ancient through modern wars and is the stories of him fighting them and his life. If anyone knows of which I am talking please let me know. Thanks....

Hi Riaglo

The series you're looking for is the "Casca" series, starting with "The Eternal Mercenary". There re 27 books in the series to date. The first 22 were written by Barry Sadler. after he died theseries was taken over by first Paul Dengelegi, then Tony Roberts.
