The Ace

A Novel

De: Jack D. Hunter

Narrado por: Richard Powers

Four Americans - a 20-year-old social outcast, a breezily iconoclastic Army officer, a ruthless U.S. senator, and a guilt-ridden heiress - are inexorably drawn together in their struggles to deal with America's chaotic involvement in World War I.

Their interwoven destinies lead from poverty-stricken slums through the opulence of 1917 - 1918 Washington, London, and Paris and, climactically, into the Western Front's vicious aerial combat, which establishes the matrix for all air warfare to come.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Hunter has a gift for easy storytelling that engages the reader and lets you feel like you know these settings and these people. It's a rare art." (Books and Writers Community)

Great read

Not as solid as Blue Max but a fun read nonetheless. Decent story, likable characters if a bit cartoonish at times, with instances of beautify poetic descriptions. Some of the scenes were a bit hard to believe and the ending was somewhat disappointing but overall fun.
