Twyla & the Warbirds: Family Lost

By: T.W. Bellen

Narrated by: Anastasia Griffith

Book One of the Twyla & the Warbirds saga, Family Lost, traces a difficult path for an American-Ukrainian rural girl from Boonville California.

At a tender age, Twyla Campbell loses her family in a freak aeroplane accident. Her young life is salvaged from indenture by the neighbor boy, who teaches her to fly.

Stationed in Honolulu with her fiancé, she narrowly escapes certain death while flying above Pearl Harbor. Twyla lucks into a slot with the W.A.S.P., women’s ferry pilots training program in Texas, where “the girls” have no business in the Army Air Force. Twyla transports fighter planes to Alaska for Roosevelt.

There, she befriends Marina, a Russian pilot with indefatigable courage and odd sense of humor.

When tragedy strikes, Twyla boards a transport home, only to find herself arrested on the Eastern Front and scheduled for execution...

inspirational

The courage it took for women to become pilots. Their intelligence as well as their ability to keep their sense of humor. Definitely inspirational!

super good story

When you go into a book blind and it hits you like a ton of bricks how much you actually like the book and was really upset when it ended!! This book was pretty good! Not my normal read! And it pulled me right in!!

Features strong women!

This is a great set up to book 2. I highly recommend for fans of WWII historical fiction.
