G-8 and His Battle Aces #52 Audiobook
Satan Paints the Sky
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!
 
Here is a story of tainted wings and of the twisted soul that gave them flight! It is the story of a fiend with a knife in his brain who lived so that others would die! G-8 walked down the road that leads to Death, and in the sky he flew where the Falcons waited with their bloody claws bared! For that is the way of War and there is no mercy — only red courage against hatred. Fly with G-8 against this bloody madness that has descended upon the earth! — Fight side by side with the Master Spy while Satan Paints the Sky!
 
Ten years after World War I ended, nostalgia seized a new generation, and a flock of pulp magazines dedicated to the first air-war in human history began vying for reader dimes. Wings. Flying Aces. War Aces. War Birds. Sky Birds. Zoom. A new school of pulp fiction developed around these titles. Its practitioners called it Yammering Guns, after a phrase one pulpster coined while writing noisy battle scenes of Spad versus Fokker warplanes trading tracers. The prince of Yammering Guns was a minister’s son named Robert J. Hogan, himself a pilot during World War One and after.
 
At first penning pulp tales just to feed himself when the bottom fell out of the airplane industry in October 1929, Hogan found a niche fairly quickly. His first tale, an aviation story, sold to Wings for $65.00. Although he would write everything from westerns to straight war stories, Hogan’s claim to pulp fame came when G-8 and His Battle Aces debuted in 1933.
 
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 Satan Paints the Sky. Originally published in the January 1938 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.
