Representaion Toward Books Biggles in France (Biggles #9)

A burst of bullets struck Biggles' machine somewhere just behind him, and he jerked the control-stick back into his stomach. A Hun shot past his wing-tip, so close that Biggles flinched.'That's too close!' he muttered. 'Where the dickens are the S. E.'s?'Biggles battles through the First World War, honing his flying skills in terrifying battles against the finest fighters the enemy can supply. But he finds war provides more light-hearted adventures as well, and this collection of stories from early in Biggles' career combines the fun of being part of 266 squadron and the fear of deadly serious aerial combat.

Notice Based On Books Biggles in France (Biggles #9)
This is a collection of somewhat connected short stories (each spread over roughly two chapters) of Biggles adventures when posted at a French airbase Maranique. His quests range from friendly contests with other squadrons (particularly the 287th and Captain Wilkinson Wilks) over the number of enemy crafts brought down and the distance they entered beyond the lines, to coordinated action when needed, a run-in with a bull, a turkey hunt for Christmas, and even suspected spy activity. The stories

I love Biggles books, an acquired taste most definately.

I enjoyed this book, it brought me back to my childhood. Great stories.

One of the best Great War aviation books I've read in a long while. Right up there with "Sagittarius Rising"

A collection of short stories that all have been published in other Biggles books. I can't remember if it is one of the first books or if it is in Biggles of 266 but if you have read those books then nothing here is new.Well, a few stories are changed/edited a bit but I don't know if that is because of the edition or because of the books. When republished in the 70s(?) the editor did a lot of change and I read that version.



Well, this book is incredibly easy to read. I think it was written as a series of very short stories, and the structure of the book does come across like that, there is no overriding story to the whole book, and sometimes threads are just cut and never mentioned again. But great fun and easy to read.
