This book reminded me of the serials I watched at the movie theaters when I was a kid. Yes I am that old. Much like the movie serials, the story is a bit light. The problem with short stories, there is not enough time to really develop characters. That is the case with this book which is really three or four installments. That being said, this is a story about a mission that really could have happened. It is worth your time to read it and you will not feel left down. My rating is really 3.5 stars. ( )

A reasonably enjoyable and quick read, very reminiscent for older readers such as myself of the more jaunty adventures of Biggles. Some looseness when playing with history, but overall a fun read, especially for younger teens/older children. ( )

This story starts out slow at first. Though once things get going it non stop action. It felt like what going to happen to these two agents. Though it was something. British Airmen have a mission to do but we are not told until they reach the France Resistance Though though out the whole thing they spect one person and they hold the spies with them think it the other person.

Things to got from bad to worse but how are the German getting the information Though things are getting more execting has the book goes on. Their original mission is failed though they get a new mission. The new mission is to save a person that is to land in England. I am so in to this book for it give you sence of what happening before the United States enter the WWII.

I am looking forward to find out more about this even though it part fiction and part fact. I am waitting to see if there another book to follow. ( )

This is a story about two British soldiers sent to France to save someone who has designed a better plane.The
Germans are after this same person wanting his airplane design to help in the war effort. There is a lot of adventure, some of it a little unbelievable but it keeps you reading. The grammatical errors were very distracting. Also there was some discrepancies in the character's names as Marie was also Mary and Marcela was also Marcel. ( )

***This book has just been re-written and edited to correct the typos and grammer mistakes in the previous edition. Thanks, Paul, for taking our comments to heart and doing this.

I really, really enjoyed this book. The plot was interesting and the characters seemed very real. I really had trouble putting it down. It is about two British soldiers in 1939 sent to France to rescue a French airplane designer whom the Germans want to work for them. The French resistance is called in to help with the rescue and the adventures begin. Through plane crashes, bad weather, kidnappings, enemy troops, and attempted assassins these brave men are determined to succeed in their mission. I found the story to be fascinating. ( )
