this is an amazing fast-paced story. Even though it says it's a fictional work it sounds to me like it was real life. It's thrilling and extremely well written. It's a book that you just can't put down. I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was amazing he brought the story to life. I really can't recommend this book enough.
so much praise goes out to the author and publishers for bringing us this wonderful and realistic story.

Well researched and well written historical fiction based on chopper pilots in the Vietnam war.

This book grabbed my attention and held it all the way through, the action scenes were intense but not overpowering and the detail involved could almost trick you into believing your reading a non fiction account of the brave men who piloted the helicopters in Vietnam.

Written in such a way that you could be forgiven for thinking this is non-fiction, the book handles the context of a terrible war with respect and also in a way which does not sugar coat the realities of a conflict situation. I enjoyed the writing style and really felt like I was there with the characters.

I have read "Chariots in the Sky" by Larry A. Freeland. This is a great novel about chopper pilots in the end of the Vietnam war. I have read many books about this conflict both fiction and nonfiction and this one read almost like nonfiction. The statistics about chopper pilots is amazing, almost half the choppers where lost during the war. In this book although fiction you get a feel for most crazy thing that can occur in a war zone and how it is to live with it. I must thank @publishauthority @netgalley for giving me this advance copy and the author @larryfreeland_author for writing a great book.
