25 October 2005.  HOT NEWS!  A new company has been formed, Eastaboga Entertainment Inc., to take charge of the Casca franchise.  The CEO, Gail Rhine, is currently looking into a number of Casca ventures and intends to publish a new series of Casca books in the future, with the first hopefully being in 2006.

****************
24 October 2005.  All character pages have been redesigned except for S and T.

****************
21 October 2005.  I've now completed all the character page redesigning except for M, NO, PQ, S and T.  As these are the bigger pages it'll take a little time to do.  I also hope to have a review of the Outcast very soon as I've been informed that a copy is on its way to me from the USA.

****************
13 October 2005.  I've just learned of the imminent closure of Americana Publishing Inc. who up to now have done the abridged CDs of Casca stories.  They close on the 14th (tomorrow) so I've taken off all links to their website.  It seems they have hit financial difficulties and have decided to close.

****************
13 October 2005.  After receiving a guestbook suggestion, I'm  going to make the background colours
on one or two of the character pages easier to the eye.  I've done more pages, including D, EF and G.

****************
12 October 2005.  I've redesigned more of the character pages, including B and C.  I'll work on more throughout the month so they will end up looking much better to the eye.

****************
5 October 2005.  I've begun tidying up the look of the character pages which up to now have been a bit of a mess. 
Character "A" page is completed to give you an idea of the new look.

****************
5 October 2005.  I've added a link to the Brotherhood page on the index page following a suggestion from Andy Beau of swords & sorcery.com, and I've included a link to his website where he's done a review of Casca books on the booklist page.  I've also received confirmation that a copy of Casca:The Outcast CD will be sent to me shortly, so watch this space for a review of what will be Paul Dengelegi's last Casca story.

*****************
28 September 2005.  I'm hoping to get hold of a copy of the 25th Casca story The Outcast by Paul Dengelegi very soon, and I shall review it on the relevant page of this website.  As its only in CD form this may take a little time.

*****************
1 September 2005.  I'm going to be away for a week (3rd-9th September) so any correspondence sent I shall reply to after I return.

*****************
1 September 2005.  Checking the
book stats over the past twelve months I've noticed a bit of a change in the popularity of the top 5.  While Eternal Mercenary remains the most popular, both Liberator and Defiant are slipping and Panzer Soldier and God of Death rising.  Biggest changes  over the past 3 months: Eternal Mercenary +0.6%, Cursed +0.5%; Sentinel -0.4%, Liberator -0.5%, Defiant -1.0%.

*****************
29 August 2005.  I hope to get an official link to Books In Motion and Americana web sites shortly after contacting them.  I'm also going to try to find out the latest news on the next planned book "AntiChrist" which was due to be completed some time this year.

*****************
21 July 2005.  More tidying up completed, this time on the Booklist page.  I've made the list much easier to follow now in one column rather than the multiples I had before.

*****************
20 July 2005.  A long overdue tidying up of the "index" page has been done and I've slightly altered the home page too.  Any other changes anyone would like to see please email me with a suggestion and I'll look into it.

*****************
24 June 2005:  I've tidied up the Barry Sadler page and created this new News page.  Also I've done a little digging around and found another audio publisher of Casca books.  This is a company based in Spokane, Washington State, and is called
Books In Motion.  They sell unabridged copies of Casca audio books and have a contract to sell them which was set up back in 2002 by the late Gary Sizemore.  Along with Americana these two are the "official" audio book sellers of Casca stories.
