Flames over Norway, or how Norwegian gold did not end up in Nazi hand. An interesting historical novel about activities on a little-known front of World War II and how, seen by those terrible beginnings, war could easily be won by Nazi Germany, certainly better armed and unscrupulous than Allies. As I was saying, a very interesting novel though somewhat incostant, since very often the historical part becomes secondary and very fictional compared to the description of the many air duels. It's a lot of fun, especially in light of the current conspiracy theories about chemical sciences, the passage that talks about the surprise of the first pilots of high altitude to discover that above a certain altitude their planes, which at lower altitudes did not trace signs in the air, drew insteads big path that somehow denounced their presence despite the paintings that made them invisible from below. For the news: The novel is from 1966.
I thank Endeavor Press and Netgalley for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
