His name was Krestor. He was a soldier – but not an ordinary one. For he fought in an army of the future, with weapons far more advanced than those used in the Second World War. But he was also destined to see action in that war, and in the jungles of Burma he was […]
Steve Hunter began to wonder just what he was doing on board a rusty old cargo freighter in the middle of the Indian Ocean, especially when a Japanese submarine began to use the ship for target practice. But he had escaped death before in the long search for his brother and he would do it […]
A little shaky before battle? Not Kapitein Robin van der Laan of the East Indies Army Air Force. In his North American B-25 Mitchell bomber, he was armed and ready to take on the enemy whatever the price. But Robin was going to find out how much it would cost —for his Mitchell was outclassed […]
