A Warbird in the Belly of the Mouse

by David Parish-Whittaker

Overview

A winner of the Writers of the Future contest in 2007, Warbird follows Nigel, a World War One fighter pilot who has been "time plucked" into the 21st century in order to work as a guide for a reality show about Great War air combat. Nigel has to contend with his feelings about the war, as well as the 21st century tourists he shepherds, each with their own reasons for being there.

"A nice tale about pride, honor and duty." --Diabolical Plots
