Summary "A new conflict looms, at the very edge of the world. For World War One flying ace Ira Penaluna , peace brings frustration and disillusionment. Desperate to continue flying, he accepts an offer to go to China as a commander of the ramshackle air-force of General Tsu , a local warlord. With him he takes a bizarre trio of misfits: Pat , the boozy, bragging Irishman, more interested in bar hopping than flying, Sammy , the mechanical genius, and Ellie , a tough former stunt-pilot. But before long this joyride becomes a desperate flight for life. After centuries of poverty and exploitation, China is rising against brutal, corrupt rulers like General Tsu, and Ira's band of adventurers are branded mercenaries. A thrilling adventure in aviation, The Mercenaries is a triumph, perfect for fans of Wilbur Smith, W. E. Johns and Dale Brown."-- Provided by Freading.
