Well, with the pocket money I saved from not sponsoring Molly B for Comic Relief, I got a handful of Nazi / Killer Croc books in Bude today.Now what's more important..furthering my huge collection of pulp fiction thus increasing my personal happiness...or buying some kid some shoes who'll probably grow up and try to invade Europe?

It's no contest, really.
Totally love that title - "Stuka Squadrons Hawks of Death" - makes me wanna read it. Did anyone here ever read those Sven Hassel books? I read a bunch of them when I was 13. Like Mills and Boon for uber-psychotic Nazis from what I can recall - that's if rape, torture, genocide, and the general degradation of humanity on the author's over-fantasised Russian Front is your idea of romance. Me Mum liked 'em...
Sven is King...I've got a pile of them & I think Kidshirt's amassing a few too.
Stukas are my favorite plane...that and the Mitsubishi Zero...calling a plane a Zero..it's just the coolest thing ever.
Anyway, I'll post up some Hassel's as soon as I've finished my new Top Ten which hopefully I'll post up tonight after Dragon's Den.
Coool... I'm all excited now. I quite fancy a read of a Hassel or two for old time's sake. Can you recommend any particular title that you know of as being illustrative of his mastery of the genre.
'Wheels Of Terror', 'The Commissar' are both good & 'Tank Battalion' 'The Bloody Road To Death' are bleedin' great.
My ersonal favourite is 'Liquidate Paris'...but that migft be because I love the title so much.
