G-8 and His Battle Aces #22 Audiobook
Wings of the Juggernaut
by Robert J. Hogan
Read by Nick Santa Maria
 
 
They called G-8 the Flying Spy. History never recorded his exploits—and for good reason! No one would ever believe World War I was that wild!
 
“There is something strange going on here in Germany. Watch for a new insignia on Fokkers. I will report more later. J-7.” But half an hour later J-7 was dead. What had he suspected? There was just one way to find out — G-8 took it, baited a suicide trap with dynamite wings. And before that night was over he knew he and his battle aces were up against the most deadly menace they had ever faced in fighting skies! America’s Master Spy slashed through a suicide trap straight onto the trail of the deadliest menace ever released in war skies — the Juggernaut Staffel!
 
G-8 stood out from other Pulp heroes in that, although he had a certain skill set, he was, at his heart, just another soldier fighting in a War for his country. He was not the peak of human perfection like Doc Savage, or a dark avenger like The Shadow. He was a pilot taking on unbelievable odds, something that his creator knew at least a bit about having been a pilot.
 
Fascinated with flying since he was a child, series creator Robert J. Hogan actually became a part of the flying corps formed in World War One. The first war that flight was actually a real factor in was also the war in which Hogan would not see any overseas action. Even without that experience, however, the training he received while in the corps, as well as work he did as a pilot doing demonstrations after the war, proved invaluable to the accuracy and realism concerning airplanes and flight in the G-8 stories.
 
Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a deadly nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in ‘Wings of the Juggernaut’. Originally published in the July 1935 issue of G-8 and His Battle Aces magazine.
 
Nick DeGregorio composed the music for the G-8 and His Battle Aces series of audiobooks.
