G-8 and His Battle Aces #23 Audiobook

The Headless Staffel

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!

“Make peace at once — or I will destroy your armies. The Wizard.” H.Q. was mildly puzzled at this strange message. But G-8 had already seen the Wizard’s black ship, had seen men die like flies beneath its wings. The observer of that black plane had shoulders and arms — but no head. There was nothing but a neck that oozed blood. And on the neck a falcon perched! For an hour the Yank spy had hunted this black ship. And now that he had sighted it he knew that his assignment to “Find the Wizard — wipe him out!” was one of the most daring jobs he and his aces had ever tried to carry out in death skies!

Each one of Robert J. Hogan’s 110 G-8 stories is set squarely in World War One, but it wasn’t the war that Hogan’s readers remembered or had heard about. The horrors of combat that G-8 faced were much more monstrous than bullets and mustard gas, outlandishly so, and the enemies they would face only grew stranger and more deadly with each new adventure.

Zombies took to the skies in later G-8 adventures. Jellyfish like creatures with long, deadly tentacles terrorized the wartime pilots. Even Martians and werewolves and other creatures got into the act. And some of G-8’s most notable foes came back for more than one chance at the Aces, but none were as memorable as G-8’s first foe, the insidious Herr Doktor Krueger. Krueger attempted multiple times to win the war for the Kaiser and rid himself of America’s Master Spy. He succeeded at neither.

Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a deadly nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in ‘The Headless Staffel’. Originally published in the August 1935 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.
