G-8 and His Battle Aces #34 Audiobook
Curse of the Sky Wolves
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!
 
Blood streams flowing with the germs of madness, the Sky Wolves have descended on the Allies! There is no truce between man and beast, for reason cannot match the savage lust for gore! Out of the dark horrors of yesterday have risen the scourging Sky wolves! Ravaged with a horrible disease — their very touch is Death! This was no dream, it was a living curse, a challenge not only to the Allies, but to the whole of the civilized earth. These were beasts whose blood ran red, whose flesh was the same as man’s. Yet souls they had not, and fear they had not as they filled the sky with Death! G-8 did not know the source of this blood-lust, but he did know the destruction it could bring; knew well that men were changing to hungry beasts and that the job was up to him!
 
G-8 is held by many experts and fans to be a part of what many consider the Pantheon of Pulp, a literal handful of characters that represent various archetypes popular within the heyday of Pulp fiction. Although by far not the only aviator to grace the pages of pulp magazines, neither before his debut or after his last story, G-8 stands out as the epitome of what a heroic pilot should be. Able to fly anything he put his hands on, unafraid to face even the most fantastic and fearsome of foes, and resolute in his loyalty and dedication to save his country and the world. Taking the best from heroes before, G-8 defined what an aviation pulp hero should be for writers then and now, still thrilling fans today.
 
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 ‘Curse of the Sky Wolves’. Originally published in the July 1936 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.
