Released 30th March 2026, the 11th action packed novel of air combat from Vincent Formosa.
There is a tiny island in the middle of the Mediterranean. Sixty miles from Sicily, it is the last bastion of freedom against the might of the Fascist boot. Day after day, the might of the Regia Aeronautica tries to bomb the inhabitants of Malta into submission.
With no spares and no replacements, a handful of outdated biplane fighters are all that stand between the Italian Air Force and the annihilation of the beleaguered Maltese.
Flight Lieutenant Richard Silver has been thrown into this maelstrom. Hard pressed and facing fearsome odds, he must screw up the courage to race into danger in the bright sky above.
For the release of this novel, I am proud to announce a special collaboration with the Malta Aviation Museum and their Sea Gladiator Restoration Project. For every copy of the novel sold, a royalty will support the Malta Aviation Museum, directly contributing to the restoration of 'Charity', the Gladiator shot down over Malta in 1940, with the goal of returning her to airworthy condition.
If you love history, aviation, or simply want to support Malta’s heritage, this is a wonderful way to get involved.
