G-8 and His Battle Aces #39 Audiobook

Patrol of the Mad

by Robert J. Hogan

Read by Nick Santa Maria

They called G-8 the Flying Spy. History never recorded his exploits—and for good reason! No one would ever believe World War I was that wild!

They reached with their ugly hands of disaster, guided by the madness of their tortured minds — caring not what they swept in their wake so long as they fed the fires of blood lust! Allied pilots lost, and then returned as gibbering idiots! Germany’s forces swept the air, and the end was now in sight, if the Master Spy and his Aces could not combat this terrible menace! G‑8 squares off with the genius of a madman!

Created to compete in the Hero Pulp market, G-8 flew into that particular fray in a rather unique way. Not a super scientist or a shrouded vigilante or even a double pistol wielding mask wearing maniac, G-8 was simply a soldier fighting for his country. This was one of the several aspects of the character that made him stand out from not only the other heroes trying to save the world through Pulp Fiction, but the multitude of pilots flying off the newsstands.

Featured in 110 stories in just over a ten year period, G-8 and His Battle Aces, while being essentially normal men doing exceptional things, came into conflict with terrors that no real soldier in World War One ever confronted. Created by Robert J. Hogan, G-8 was literally America’s Master Spy, a man without a given name through his entire Pulp series. Obviously a skilled pilot, G-8 proved in every story to be as skilled in espionage as he was in aviation. A master of disguise, a skill he learned from his manservant appropriately named Battle, G-8 often undertook missions that took him deep into enemy territory, literally at times into the den of the beasts he fought.

Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a strange nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in Patrol of the Mad. Originally published in the December, 1936 issue of G-8 and His Battle Aces magazine.

Nick DeGregorio composed the music for the G-8 and His Battle Aces series of audiobooks.
