Description: When it comes to gliders, ace pilot Breeze Callaghan is as smooth as they come. He perfects a skill that will prove vital for decades to come--as demonstrated by Captain Sully Sullenberger, who famously landed his disabled passenger plane on the Hudson River. Vying for a Navy contract, Breeze is going up against a vulture named Badger O'Dowell. But there's more than money at stake: there's his reputation, his life, and his love of a beautiful woman. And as for danger, the sky's the limit when Sky Birds Dare! The sky is calling, the wind is whipping, and the adventure takes wing as the audio version of Sky Birds Dare! soars into action.
Brief description: With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 350 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.
Review Quotes:
In the early days of flying machines,
there was stiff competition between
airplanes and gliders. Breeze Callaghan
must convince the Navy to adopt the
"soaring ships" that fly the wind noiselessly.
A full cast of narrators, complete
with sound effects, brings this Golden
Age adventure to life. The voices
of tough men, ruthless
competitors, and a gorgeous
woman mix with amazing
sound effects. With the air
streaming through the
struts, the glider swoops and
swerves as it imitates birds.
Badger O'Dowell, a ruthless
competitor, will do anything to foil
Breeze's plans. Craggy-voiced Pop promotes
every scheme he can to finance
the suave and determined Breeze's
dreams. Broken wings, strong winds,
and eye-popping storms are the audio
backdrop to the seamless performances. - Audio File Magazine
