A WAR IS A DIFFICULT THING TO KILL
The Second World War is almost over, but no one seems to have told the Germans - as Royal Air Force pilot Jamie McKenzie finds out when he's assigned to deadly shipping strikes along the enemy coast.
Flying the Mosquito fighter-bomber against heavily armed targets is dangerous enough at the best of times, but after incurring the wrath of his vengeful commanding officer, Jamie is assigned the most unpopular navigator in the unit - not to mention the least reliable aircraft. Worse still, the commander's sights are firmly set on Jamie's beautiful young wife, Beth.

    Ive been on a bit of a WWII kick recently so this has hit me at the perfect time. Out of the Blue will definitely appeal to those with a fondness for Eagle, Action, or Commando but for everyone else, if you have even a passing interest in WWII or are looking for a fresh take on those glorified battles, its worth a look.

    For lapsed and devout military history buffs alike, Out of the Blue will scratch a particular itch. It highlights a very narrow piece of World War II, and Ennis, Burns, Wordie & Steen do a fine job of immersing the reader into this particular martial world. The path their story takes is certainly well-trod, but it delivers exactly the retro, rah-rah combat glory found in the best war comics. If that's your cup of tea then this is certainly where you want to be. Read Full Review
