Thanks for keeping me entertained from 1980 to around 1985….. I absolutely loved those books.

I read Legion of the Damned and Wheels of Terror in the early 1970s whilst at boarding school in a bleak part of the UK. They were passed around from boy to boy and then back again. Such a terrific writer, funny, compassionate, and at the same time horrifying. I really should read them all again.

As a child, I witnessed my brothers and uncle reading Sven Hassel novels. I wasn't allowed to read them until I was, maybe 13? I was engrossed immediately and read every novel I could find. They bring home the bloody, horrifying truths of war. Too many novels and movies glorify war. To this day, every time I go into a second hand book store, I ask for Sven Hassel or the WWII section.

I do have all his books then. First read them when I was about 14 and decided 40 years later to get his entire collection.

I first read Legion of the Damned in 1970 as it was virtually obligatory reading for every member of the British Army Of the Rhine with copies of several of your fathers' books in every room in the barracks. I am about to read it again 50 yrs on and care little whether the story is true or fictional as now like then it is a bloody good read.

Thanks to Sven Hassel for his books, and to his family for keeping his legacy alive. I first read Blitzfreeze in 1978, as a young grade 10 school-boy, and together with all of my friends eagerly read each of his novels as they became available. Having served in the military and in combat in the Angolan bush-war in 1980's, I learnt first hand how memories blur, when one's first instinct is to try to stay alive , and how important your comrades are to you. Fights might break out over minor things, but you are always willing to share your toothbrush, razor and even underpants with your comrades. We were always hungry, and drank all alcohol that we could get our hands on. Reading about another young man, who also had to endure horrible things, but survived, and went on to live a full life, was a great inspiration to me personally. I will always be grateful that he had the courage to write about his experiences, and only wish that he could have known how his stories would help another generation of young men on the other side of the world to recover from the madness of war.

I've always enjoyed reading Sven's books and I continue to read them again and again when I get fed up with newer authors.

Like many I read svens books when I was very young, I still read them now many years later. Even today they still have relevance and put life in perspective. Thanks Sven.

I remember buying my first book form a car boot sale when I was about 14 in 1988, I cannot remember the name of the book but it must have made an impact because I kept on returning to the car boot sale every week to try to find more. I have returned to Sven again as I am older, and I find that the characters are people I want to revisit in our times. Even though the background is a horror war, which is fading from human memory, the characters will always keep it from being just mere history, we the reader are wrapped up in their lives. Maybe nowadays with our modern media, we forget that everyone who dies is a character, who should have their own book.

Answer: Sven´s books are novels not historical book, but based on his experience in WWII, and therefore part is fiction.

Me sorprendió gratamente la fácil lectura y la forma de explicar los hechos. Da sensación de realidad y a la vez impresiona por la rudeza de los hechos.

Read the books back in the 80's, looking forward to the audio versions now available… Great books, great stories I read that the last book was started but never got past 50 pages, would be great if it could somehow be completed..?

Las catorce novelas de Sven Hassel, son para mi las mejores novelas de guerra que jamas he leído, y he leído muchas. Son fuerte, duras, brutales, despiadadas, casi de verdad. Las he leído todas varias veces, y cada vez me gustan más. Solo decir que la receta del puré de patatas con tropezones de tocino de Porta es genial, así como su gato y sobrero. Me gustaría saber que paso con todos los personajes después de la guerra, si alguno sobrevivió. El Viejo, Barcelona, Heidi, El Legionario, el propio Sven, Porta, Hermanito, el Coronel Hinka, etc. Estoy deseando que se publique en España y en español la novela número 15. Seguro que la voy a disfrutar mucho. Saludos a todos los amantes de las novelas de Sven desde España. He escrito este párrafo y comentario en español, en primer lugar porque es mi idioma materno, yo pienso y siento en español, y porque Sven Hassel vivió muchos años en España y murió en España. Y porque creo que él amaba a España. I have written this paragraph and comment in Spanish, firstly because it is my mother tongue, I think and feel in Spanish, and because Sven Hassel lived many years in Spain and died in Spain, and I think he loved Spain.

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!
