I suggest all the stuff by Ringo, the Niven/Pournelle collaboration Angel's Down, the stuff by Rick Cook, Eric Flint's 1632 universe and the Honor Harrington books. I think you'll be pleased.

Good suggestions. Thank you.

I have a question you might be able to help with. There was a series of books written by Barry Sadler (the Green Beret who had the hit song "Ballad Of The Green Berets") about a Roman legionnaire named Casca Rufio Longinus who was the soldier who pierced the side of Christ at his crucifixion.

For this action he was cursed with immortality and condemned to wander the Earth as a mercenary until Christ's return. The series was called "Casca: The Eternal Mercenary". Do you know if anything has ever been done screenwise based on this series or concept?

Nope, I haven't a clue. I haven't read the books either, but I may, because the premise sounded interesting. You would recommend it, yes?

The concept, maybe . . .

In 1988 Demi Moore starred in this film called The Seven Signs, not to be confused with The Seventh Seal .

In it, the villian was trying to facilitate the end of the world becuase he was Pontius Pilate's gatekeeper who totured Christ, and was condemned to speand the rest of eternity to wander the Earth, until the world came to an end !
