RAF pilots confront the brutal reality of war
Good Condition – noticeable cover, spine and edge wear.
In 1939, the pilots of Hornet Squadron enter the Second World War with confidence, rivalry and romantic ideas about aerial combat. As the campaign unfolds, training, class assumptions and official incompetence meet the unforgiving reality of modern warfare. Derek Robinson combines dark humour, sharp characterisation and vivid flying scenes in a novel that strips away heroic myth without diminishing courage. Piece of Cake follows a squadron through loss and disillusionment, portraying the Battle of Britain as a human experience shaped by chance, fear and survival.
