The globetrotting flying adventures continue, perfect for fans of Derek Robinson and Max Hennessy.

Download or read book The Most Dangerous Game written by Gavin Lyall and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-09-28 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Cary is great with a gun and deadpan about danger' Spectator Bill Cary makes a precarious living flying aerial surveys over Lapland. When he's hired by a wealthy American hunter, Frederick Wells Homer, to fly into a prohibited part of Finland near the Soviet border, the job seems shady indeed, and when a major crook wants him to go on the hunt for Tsarist treasure, things get messy. With thugs and the Finnish Secret Service already on his tail, matters get worse when Homer's beautiful sister turns up to search for him, and Cary's fellow bush pilots start getting killed off in a series of suspicious accidents. Cary begins to realise that it may all stem from an incident in his wartime past. The Most Dangerous Game was shortlisted for the British Crime Writers Association Gold Dagger Award.

Download or read book Biggles Defies the Swastika written by Captain W. E. Johns and published by Canelo. This book was released on 2024-11-25 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biggles gets caught up in a game of spies! Biggles is deep undercover on a reconnaissance operation in Norway. His alias: Norwegian citizen Sven Hendrik. His mission: to map useful landing sites for British aircraft. But when the Germans invade without warning, Biggles finds himself trapped. Using his passable Norwegian, his fluent German and one hell of a bluff, he is able to pass himself off as a German sympathiser, and is quickly admitted into the German Air Force! This puts him in a unique position to gather vital information on the enemy, and British Air Intelligence instructs him to stay where he is. Biggles must work quickly to send intelligence back home, whilst also helping the Germans track down a known British pilot believed to be in the area. Only, the pilot’s name is familiar – very familiar, in fact... Out in the cold and taking orders from both sides, Biggles’ loyalty is put to the test.

Download or read book Walking the Americas written by Levison Wood and published by Atlantic Monthly Press. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trek through Central America from the author of Walking the Himalayas, “just the kind of guy you want with you on an adventure” (The Washington Post). Beginning in the Yucatán—and moving south through Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama—Wood’s journey takes him from sleepy barrios to glamorous cities to Mayan ruins lying unexcavated in the wilderness. Wood encounters indigenous tribes in Mexico, revolutionaries in a Nicaraguan refugee camp, fellow explorers, and migrants heading toward the United States. The relationships he forges along the way are at the heart of his travels—and the personal histories, cultures, and popular legends he discovers paint a riveting history of Mexico and Central America. While contending with the region’s natural obstacles like quicksand, flashfloods, and dangerous wildlife, he also partakes in family meals with local hosts, learns to build an emergency shelter, negotiates awkward run-ins with policemen, and witnesses the surreal beauty of Central America’s landscapes, from cascading waterfalls and sunny beaches to the spectacular ridgelines of the Honduran highlands. Finally, Wood attempts to cross one of the world’s most impenetrable borders: the Darién Gap route from Panama into South America, a notorious smuggling passage and the wildest jungle he has ever navigated. A Sunday Times bestseller and longlisted for the Banff Mountain Book Award for adventure travel, Walking the Americas is a thrilling personal tale, an accomplished piece of cultural reportage, and a breathtaking journey across some of the most diverse and unpredictable regions on earth. “A thrilling narrative trek . . . [Wood] elevates this already fascinating landscape with lively prose that combines travel journal with history lessons, memoir, and survivalist handbook.”—Booklist
