Summary
No work of fiction or nonfiction has done what Case White does in this monumental new novel by USA Today best-selling author Thomas Sullivan.
Set in the era of two world wars, this comprehensive work weaves together the bizarre mythology and eccentric beliefs that explain how a nation went insane for 12 years. Told through the compelling lives and loves of a pair of very unique characters, this tour de force will take you into a radical blend of religion and myth frighteningly similar to what is going on in parts of the world today.
Certain to be a benchmark work of elegantly written fiction and historical perspective, Case White delivers a poignant people story played out on a grand stage.

Engrossing Historical Fiction Superbly Narrated
Case White by Thomas Sullivan is an extremely impressive historical fiction novel about the rise of the Nazis and their obsessive quest for ancient relics.
I starting this audiobook not knowing too much about the story, but decided to give it a go because it was performed by my favourite audiobook narrator. I was not disappointed. The book is superbly written with an intimate and elegant style that really delves into the characters thoughts and feelings. Though definitely not an easy listen due to some of the horrific events in the story, I was completely gripped throughout.
Joshua Saxon's narration was typically brilliant. He's a natural storyteller with a classy delivery. It's always a pleasure to listen to a performance by someone who is in complete control of the material. I have Austrian heritage and I found his accents and pronunciations really authentic.
Another first class presentation from the folks at Crossroad Press.
Highly recommended.

"Circles of destiny like gears in a watch case."
Case White by Thomas Sullivan is a stunning book, so beautifully written it is a joy just to bathe in the prose despite the often unpleasantness of what is being so meticulously described, be it individuals, places or ideas. After meticulous research, this amazing book explores the bizarre mythology and eccentric beliefs founded in the concepts of power, reincarnation and the coming of the anti Christ which, at least in part, drove Hitler and those in his close circle to seek to build a new world of supermen. Told through the lives and loves of two very disparate characters, the book travels in time from before Hitler's rise to power, through the second world war to his death.
This is a book unlike the usual 30's and 40's novel set in Germany. It is not about the political scene and the horrors of death camps, although these do occur - how could they not? But instead is based around the supernatural, the strange beliefs which so built the feelings of confidence, inevitability and superiority of those leaders who plunged Germany into a a World War. Simply fascinating and a thrilling read. And narrated with perfection by Joshua Saxon, whose delivery was well paced, clear and perfectly intoned. An excellent performance.
I was very fortunate in being freely gifted with a complimentary copy of Case White, at my request, by the rights holder via Audiobook Boom. Thank you so much. This is a strange look at the reasons behind one of the most devastating eras of the twentieth century and will definitely make me look differently at current happenings. A thriller, an history and a look back in time and mythology all rolled into a book of personal obsessions. Everyone should read this, though, be warned, at 14 hours, it is quite long. But never a dull minute.

A chilling, compulsive masterpiece
I won't give a summary of the story of this wonderful book as you can read it in the blurb.
It is beautifully and horrifyingly written, blending fact and fiction seamlessly in a way that makes the unthinkable both more and less believable; more fantastical, more sordid and more mundane.
I would strongly recommend this novel, distressing to read though it is, to everybody. Actually, because it's distressing as, despite all the 'lest we forget's, we once again seem to be headed in a similar direction.
As for the narrator: Joshua Saxon has excelled himself. Since I discovered his narration I have followed it from book to book and discovered several wonderful authors who are new to me. He didn't disappoint this time, in fact it's perhaps my favourite narration of his to date. He deserves to be widely known as a storyteller. He is utterly compelling.
