Publisher Description

CHINA IS AT WAR WITH ITSELF. ONE WARLORD INTENDS TO WIN IT FROM THE AIR.

In 1930s China, rival warlords battle for territory while foreign powers stand aside. Jim Dahlgren of the Amalgamated Aeronautical Company has seen enough. The ruthless provincial warlord known as The Butcher has acquired three bombers and launched a war against neighboring Shan Province. If no one stops him, an entire city may be destroyed.

Dahlgren believes one man can change the odds: Feng-Feng—“Wind-Gone-Mad”—a mysterious ace pilot who has spent years fighting the provincial warlords and wants a China strong enough to resist both civil war and invasion. Against bombers, armored cars and armies on the ground, Wind-Gone-Mad has one fast pursuit plane, two machine guns and a plan no one else would dare attempt.

Set during China’s turbulent warlord era, Wind-Gone-Mad is a fast-moving military aviation adventure of aerial combat, divided loyalties and a country caught between rival armies.

Three complete adventures set in 1930s China in one volume.

Tah — Set amid the warlord conflicts of early 1930s China, twelve-year-old Tah has been sold into General Chang’s army by his father. Forced to march toward battle beside his eleven-year-old friend Wung, he dreams of the games a child should be playing instead of war.

Yellow Loot —Brad Williams accompanies five elderly scientists into the Chang tombs north of Peking in search of precious amber. Bandits, capture and the Western Hills turn the archaeological expedition into a desperate fight for escape toward the Great Wall of China.

“Wind-Gone-Mad is an exciting saga set in the last days of pre-World War II China.” —Midwest Book Review

Thrilling air adventure

If ever proof was needed to demonstrate that you don't have to travel at Mach 1 with multiple missiles on either wing to experience pulse-pounding excitement, then let me recommend "Wind-Gone-Mad" as it will certainly do the job.
