Casca Rufio Longinus

Things are happening at the moment. I’ve got my new contract for 2020 and the two new books will be Casca 52: The Rough Rider (Spanish-American war of 1898) and Casca 53: The Last Defender (siege of Constantinople 1453).

Busy writing the Rough Rider which is about halfway done and I expect to finish it by Christmas. It’ll be released around end of March 2020.

And my books will all be for sale at the forthcoming Totterdown Arts Trail (Nov 16-17) where our house will be open to the public to see and hopefully buy my partner Jane’s artwork and my books, and have refreshments at the cafe in our large kitchen.

Its arrived and on the website shop – you can order it now!

I’m expecting it in on or around 13th September so I’ve put it up on the shop for advance orders.

Book should be out in September. Look out for further announcements.

I’m hoping to have the artwork for the new Casca novel pretty soon. Once its with me I can send it off to the publishers and it’ll be with us in about a month from then. The title is The Saracen and is a novel that links both Casca 19 and Casca 22.

On 25th March the UK postal rates will be changing. Some prices rise, some fall. I’ve put the new Casca book up on the shop to be bought now, so put your order in now before the price rise!

The hour and a quarter of my interview with Bryan Aiello is now available for you to listen to. https://bryanaiello.com/2019/02/28/127-tony-roberts/

The artwork has been done and its shown here. Book to be published in March.

Casca fan John Lovato of Utah kindly sent me a replica of the Holy Lance that resides in the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria, which I received this week. This is the replica of the one Hitler took from Vienna in 1938, and was returned to the Austrians by General Patton in 1945.

Had an audio podcast interview with a Bryan Aiello of New York today, someone who interviews authors around the world.  We discussed the Casca series and Barry Sadler amongst many other subjects.  I’ll let you know when its out.
