Fifteen-year-old Mick Gallagher has a dream. All he wants is to become a fighter pilot and help free Ireland. Little does Mick know his dream of flying will come true sooner than he thinks! But how long will it be before Mick can help free Ireland?
Mick is in awe when he witnesses a dogfight in the sky above Aunt Patti’s farm. The fight between a British pilot and a German pilot is a harrowing one. With guns blazing the German pilot shoots the British pilot down. However, the German soldier is injured and crash lands almost hitting Aunt Patti’s house!
Before he realizes it, Mick travels to France where he is given flying lessons. While staying at the French chateau of his instructor, Mick meets Michelle Guerintaux. A romance soon blossoms between Mick and Michelle.
Set in the backdrop of World War I, Mick finds himself flying and fighting with the Red Baron himself! Mick is honored as he is to be part of Richthofen’s Flying Circus but one thing bothers him. When can he fly to Ireland to help free them from the British?
I usually don’t enjoy a war story but I did enjoy this one. I found it to be a real page-turner from beginning to end. I highly recommend this book and I hope to read more by Mr. Falash!
