DescriptionRecommended reading ages 10-14 years.The fourth title in the popular Kiwis at War series is a powerfully written story showing how warfare changed forever with the introduction of the aeroplane and the tank. While Falkner does not shy away from the horrors of war, his writing also brings humour and warmth. Young teen boys, in particular, will relish the experience – and marvel at how the air aces of WW1 were not much older than them – most in their late teens and early twenties.ReviewChildren’s War Books (blog), Philippa Werry ~ “One of the interesting features about this series is that, while individually written (and perfectly readable as standalone texts), the five titles will be linked by characters who appear in more than one book. I love the idea of this collaboration amongst the authors, each working on their own story but also finding ways to create connections between them.”Meet the Kiwi authorFind out more about award-winning New Zealand author Brian Falkner on his author page.
