All along the Western front, everyone was out to get The Sky Devil’s
Brood!
And there was no better flight in France. Led by Captain Bill Dawe,
the famous Yank ace known to all of France as the Sky Devil, the brood
consisted of Chuck Verne, Mart Bevin, Slim Skitch and Slug Walton. The
crimson devil insignia on their silver Spads brought fear to any
German pilot unlucky enough to meet them in the air.
But the Sky Devil’s greatest enemy might just be his own C.O., Major
Petrie, who had been railroaded into command of 120 Squadron over
Dawe’s head. Jealous of Dawe’s popularity, Petrie will do anything to
bring down “The Sky Devil’s Brood!”
Prolific pulpster Harold F. Cruickshank penned Twenty-nine exciting
adventures of the Sky Devil. They appeared in the pages of Dare-Devil
Aces from 1932-1935. Age of Aces collects fourteen of them here in
Volume 1. Also included in this volume, Don Hutchison provides some
insight into Cruickshank’s career.
