A few months ago I found and old beaten copy of "Legion of the Damned" that my uncle gave me when i was kid. It sat in my shelf for many years until recently when I started reading as means to help my depression. When I started reading this book I was so fascinated with the characters, the stories. So much so, that with money from my first ever salary I went and bought the entire set of books brand new! Even though you're no longer among us, I want to thank you Sven for writing these books, and for these amazing stories and great characters!

Read my first SH book, Legion of the Damned, while still in high school. It was circulating around communist Romania in photocopied issues... Then, after Nov 1989, a printing house in Bucharest got the rights to translate and print all Sven Hassel novels. I have bought them, read them and enjoyed them greatly. Still re-read them, every once in a while... Humanity should not forget the tragedy that WWII brought on us, all... Even more so, as it seems we are heading towards another long period of international conflict, brutal terrorism and political unrest.

40 years after reading the legion of the damned, very much looking forward for the glorius defeat. Could anyone let me know whether it has been published in English ?

As a boy of 26 I read with eager anticipation now as a boy of 51 I read all over again feeling the warmth of comrades and the despair of war.

I don't see these books in the shops. I was bought a copy of 'Court Martial' when I was 14 and didn't read it until I was probably 20. Since then I've trawled the 2nd hand shops and have 7 books now. Just finished 'the Bloody Road to Death'. All have been a cracking read.

I’ve read his books since I was 12. Still reread them sometimes. Great books.

First discovered a very old copy of Monte Cassino (Beast Regiment) by Sven Hassel at a thrift store. Quickly became a fan of his writing. Thank you for the great books.

I can't remember when I first read Sven's novels but now have all of them and keep re-reading them. Even if there is a bit of "fantasy" in some of the stories, they give a frightening snapshot of war. Excellent books

J’avais 18 ans en 1974 lorsque j’ai lu le premier roman de Sven Hassel. Ce récit m’a profondément choqué et j’ai ensuite lu tous les autres livres.
