[image error] Vengeance at Midway and Guadalcanal



Action explodes from the pages of Novelist LC Shanle’s second book in the Aviator Series. World War II experienced from the cockpits of fighter aircraft, and through the eyes of men trapped in island Tropical Hells. Written by a retired Naval Aviator and former Paratrooper; the author puts the reader in the F-4F Wildcat and jungle, as warriors engage in a titanic struggle around the globe. 
A diverse and rich cast of characters reveal the sacrifice and frustrations of war. A no holds bar accounting of the actual battles, shown through the eyes of the novels characters, uncovers mistakes and even incompetence at the highest levels. Vengeance shows the disastrous results of these decisions, on the lowest common denominator; the war fighter. Closely following the actual battles of Midway and Guadalcanal the reader gets an insider’s view so vivid the smell of cordite will hang in the air.
A rare perspective written by an author that flew modern fighters over the historic battlefields, even from the decks of aircraft carriers that fought in the Pacific. A riveting story, Vengeance tells of the impact at an individual level, a personal level; of an entire world at war. From the struggles of a young man in Officer Candidate School facing down a sadistic Drill Instructor; to entire fleets engaging in War At Sea. 
Vengeance will pull back the curtain of historical perspective and frame it in reality. The harsh reality will come as a shock to readers who have read of great victories. But know little of the tremendous cost; like fifteen hundred sailors lost in a single nights battle, all five of the Sullivan brothers among them.
To the soldier, sailor or airman: war is about the small unit they are a part of and the struggle not only to stay alive, but protect their comrades. Sometimes, even to avenge their deaths. 





[image error] Endgame in the Pacific




The third in Shanle’s aviator trilogy, End Game takes the reader to the
climactic battles of WWII in the Pacific and European Theaters. A retired
Naval Aviator (fighter pilot) and former Paratrooper, Shanle puts readers
in the cockpit as hundreds of aircraft engage in the biggest and deadliest
dog fights in history. Storm the beaches of Pacific Islands with the Marines,
parachute into France with the Army Airborne. Stand on the decks of the
USS Johnston as the tiny Destroyer charges an entire Imperial Japanese
Fleet, by itself. While facing down the enemy, these same men and women
hold together families and try to safeguard a small sense of normality inside
of a whirlwind of death and destruction.





[image error] Code Name: Infamy



A Nazi’s Nazi, SS Generalleutnant von Bassenheim has no intention of surrendering. And Lieutenant Commander Atsugi, an Imperial pilot with nothing left to live for, wants nothing less than total revenge. With Axis powers facing defeat, the two men set out on a suicide mission in a submarine aircraft carrier with two nuclear weapons on board and two Sieran fighters destined to drop their loads on American cities. In a cat-and-mouse game spanning the globe, one OSS officer and a team of naval aviators and ship commanders race against the clock to find and destroy the rogue submarine.





[image error] Hemingway’s Suitcase



Paris 1922, the lost generation gathered to forget WWI. Art, literature and freedom filled the air. Pablo Picasso, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Henri Matisse, Sinclair Lewis and cutting the widest swath through the City of Light, Ernest Hemingway. 
Good and evil stalked the European Continent as the world began to position for the next war. In the midst of all this turmoil, Hemingway’s early work was stolen. Packed in a suitcase with the carbon copies, it was snatched from a train in Paris.
A sinister curse, unleashed by Hemingway, follows the suitcase as it passes through history striking down those who would possess it. Double-edged, it shadows him through three wars, four wives, even deepest Africa. Try as he might, he can’t outrun it.
All framed by the incredible life of Ernest Hemingway, the thrilling story has twists and turns that will keep the pages turning throughout the entire journey. 





I hope you are out in the summer sun, but if COVID-19 has you shut-in, enjoy a good read!
