      This book reminded me of the serials I watched at the movie theaters when I was a kid. Yes I am that old. Much like the movie serials, the story is a bit light. The problem with short stories, there is not enough time to really develop characters. That is the case with this book which is really three or four installments. That being said, this is a story about a mission that really could have happened. It is worth your time to read it and you will not feel left down. My rating is really 3.5 stars.
    • 3/5
      A reasonably enjoyable and quick read, very reminiscent for older readers such as myself of the more jaunty adventures of Biggles. Some looseness when playing with history, but overall a fun read, especially for younger teens/older children.

      I received this Ebook as an Early Reviewer selection and found it very easy to read. It was fast moving, but rather unbelievable in some parts. Characters forgot they had a gun, a map and a radio until the opportune moment arrived and were able to out manoever invading Germans easily. It was entertaining, just a bit too easily wrapped up on a neat package.

      I received this book as part of a Member Giveaway from LibraryThing. This is the second book that I have read from this author, and my comments for this book is about the same as for the other. There is great promise here for this author, as he does a good job with plot development and action. This story starts a little slow at first, but gets faster in pace, and some of the action sequences are very exciting. The book needs editing for grammar, sentence structure and spelling. I would also have liked a little more character development, there was very little back story for any of the characters to help the reader become involved with the characters. I would also suggest to the author to tighten up the dialogue and vocabulary to make it a little more sophisticated, even for a young adult novel, the dialogue seemed a little immature and choppy at times. I did love the time period of the setting, I am interested in reading this author's next work, and look forward to the sequel to this novel.

      This story starts out slow at first. Though once things get going it non stop action. It felt like what going to happen to these two agents. Though it was something. British Airmen have a mission to do but we are not told until they reach the France Resistance Though though out the whole thing they spect one person and they hold the spies with them think it the other person.Things to got from bad to worse but how are the German getting the information Though things are getting more execting has the book goes on. Their original mission is failed though they get a new mission. The new mission is to save a person that is to land in England. I am so in to this book for it give you sence of what happening before the United States enter the WWII. I am looking forward to find out more about this even though it part fiction and part fact. I am waitting to see if there another book to follow.

      This is a story about two British soldiers sent to France to save someone who has designed a better plane.TheGermans are after this same person wanting his airplane design to help in the war effort. There is a lot of adventure, some of it a little unbelievable but it keeps you reading. The grammatical errors were very distracting. Also there was some discrepancies in the character's names as Marie was also Mary and Marcela was also Marcel.
    • 3/5
      I really, really enjoyed this book. The plot was interesting and the characters seemed very real. I really had trouble putting it down. It is about two British soldiers in 1939 sent to France to rescue a French airplane designer whom the Germans want to work for them. The French resistance is called in to help with the rescue and the adventures begin. Through plane crashes, bad weather, kidnappings, enemy troops, and attempted assassins these brave men are determined to succeed in their mission. I found the story to be fascinating. There may have been some historical inaccuracies, but these didn't bother me. However, the atrocious grammatical errors in this one almost did me in. A good proof reader would have done wonders for this book. I liked this book so much I really wish I could give it a higher rating but just can't get past the lack of proofing.

      The Last Plane out of Paris is about two British pilots who are assigned to go to France and bring back someone who has designed an airplane that will give whoever has it an edge in the war. The Germans also want to capture this man. With the help of the French Resistance, the British must stay one step ahead of the Germans in their mission to escape France. The plot of this story is fast paced and exciting. Unfortunately, the numerous spelling mistakes found throughout the book are distracting. The airplane designer is referred to as Marcella, Marcel, and Marcela in the beginning, middle, and end of the book.

      After both his parents are killed in a Nazi attack, Bill Edwards is as determined as a soldier can be to put a stop to the German war machine. Entrusted with a highly important mission, Bill and his best buddy Jim are sent to France to bring a scientist and his blueprints for a secret weapon back to England.Sound easy? Well, not if you consider that the year is 1939, and the Nazis have just launched an offensive involving hundreds of thousands of troops across the French border. Full of non-stop action, treachery, spies, Gestapo agents, and high-speed chases, this story never slows down. If this story were a video, it would resemble SAVING PRIVATE RYAN on steroids.The action was steady and the story was able to hold a reader's attention, though unbelievable at many times. The grammar is a problem, and several of the sentences could be worded differently for better clarity: it could definitely use some good editing. I think of myself when I was a teenager and was enthusiastic about war/action plots. I am guessing that this age group is the primary target of this adventure story.
    • 3/5
      I received Last Plane out of Paris as a giveway. I was a little disappointed that, as this was a collection of all the previously separate publications, it had not been more rigorously edited for spelling and grammatical errors. This was a distraction that became quite irritating at times. The story has all the potential to be quite the "boys own adventure" but lacked an authentic feel. We are talking about late 1930's France here...most of the vehicles on the roads were Citroens or Renaults - which were invariably painted black. Fords, whether light or white, would have been few and far between in rural France. A highly manouverable fighter plane would have struggled to perform in the manner described with three passengers on board, if indeed it had been designed to carry that number. It just didn't ring quite true.A sympathetic editor could help tidy this story into something quite readable as the occasional modern cultural references and language styles need to be removed for it to sound more authentic.
