You know a series is a total failure, when you can remove the main character and the story can unfold the same way without him. Really. Just lift him out of there -- same result.

Bad enough there were more and more dream sequences, for this final volume we are served up a stinking amnesia storyline to boot? Ugh. The absolute dregs of creativity.

So yeah, we get a few more really stupid plot twists and then are asked to feel sympathy for a Nazi who kinda feels bad about the whole, y'know . . . Holocaust . . . thingy. Umm, no. No, no, no.

Garbage.

It's the closing days of World War II -- HItler is dead and the Soviets surround Berlin -- but a cadre of SS officers are pushing through a Hail Mary nuclear dirty bomb strike on the United States to help their position in negotiations for the end of the war.

At this point in the story we are neck-deep in Nazis doing and planning horrible things, and this is supposed to make the less horrible Nazis or the Nazis starting to question the horrible things more sympathetic? Nuh-uh.

This historical fiction has lost its way.… (more)

This series is really falling apart on the back end. I'm getting bored with the fictional tour of the Nazis' (real) experimental aircraft and quirky aviation engineers. The protagonist and his target, Hanna Reitsch, have keep getting blown up and knocked down a ridiculous number of times as they zip around Europe in the midst of Germany's last throes in the war. And now dream sequences are taking up more and more pages, and I HATE dream sequences . . .

Two more short volumes to go, and I'm finding it harder to stick it out.… (more)

In the closing days of World War II, German pilot Hanna Reitsch makes a dangerous trip to Berlin to receive her final orders directly from Hitler and ask him a question that has been nagging at her conscience.

And while she thinks she knows everything about the childhood friend who has tried to secretly steal into her life to stop her top secret bombing project, he has an unnecessary and far-fetched secret yet to be revealed. It's such a groaner that I have to immediately knock a star off my rating. Ugh.

I'm still going to read through to the conclusion though to see if the creative team can win me back.
