Ace Of The White Death

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!

“Need help... Important. Meet me in Mine Seven, Shaft Two, at Saarbrucken...” Through the night flashed that message, summoning G-8, famous Yank master spy, to a mystery rendezvous deep in Bocheland. But he didn’t know enemy eyes had read that S.O.S. — didn’t guess he was heading straight into the neatest death trap ever laid for a war spy!

A primary reason for G-8’s success had to do with the setting of the tales, particularly the time period. Readers just didn’t want flying stories, but they were particularly interested in tales from the last Great War. There was something that, for a brief time, captured the imagination of readers about pilots during World War One. But, with this obviously being something that would end as quickly as it started, Popular Publications allowed G-8 author Robert J. Hogan to up the ante even more.

Hogan introduced an element to his G-8 stories that, up until that point, no one else had considered including in aviator tales. Instead of restricting America’s Master Spy’s foes to other pilots, spies, or military types, Hogan filled the skies G-8 flew through with fantastic creatures and deadly, unbelievable menaces. For every pilot aiming to kill G-8, Hogan created a mad scientist hatching a plot to kill millions. While planes flew overhead in some stories, giant bats and other winged monsters threatened entire countries in others. The skies of Robert J. Hogan’s version of World War One were filled with horrors that only G-8 could handle.

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 Ace of the White Death. Originally published in the December 1933 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.
