About this listen

Timeless themes of courage and danger, leadership and honor, along with the bare-knuckle struggle between right and wrong are the hallmark of L. Ron Hubbard’s military and war adventures. Experience the action in these tales set against historical backgrounds as the characters face relentless adversaries and overwhelming odds.

This 5-audiobook collection includes 9 short stories for 10 hours of immersive entertainment. All audiobooks are unabridged, full-cast productions with cinematic quality sound effects that bring the stories and characters to vivid life.

Titles and short stories in the Military & War Short Stories Collection Vol 2 include: The Phantom Patrol, The Falcon Killer, Hellʼs Legionnaire (with: “The Barbarians” and “The Squad That Never Came Back”), Red Death Over China (includes: “The Crate Killer” and “Wings Over Ethiopia”), and While Bugles Blow!

You will love this collection because, as Publishers Weekly describes, “Hubbard’s stunning writing ability and creative imagination set him apart as one of the greatest literary figures of the 20th Century.” And Antique Trader acclaims that “Hubbard paints his scenes with strong images that put the reader right into the action.”

Book Descriptions:

The Phantom Patrol: Coast Guard Officer Johnny Trescott is caught in a deadly sea adventure when a drug runner captures his ship, and uses it and Johnny’s uniform to raid ships and traffic drugs. When authorities arrest Johnny and throw him in jail, he must escape and bring the cutthroat to justice—or face the gallows himself. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Shane Johnson, Jim Meskimen, Kristin Proctor, Michael Yurchak, Phil Proctor, and Thomas Silcott.

The Falcon Killer: The city of Nencheng is in flames, China’s only hope against the Japanese falls from the sky—their ace fighter pilot, Bill Gaylord, “The Falcon Killer.” He parachutes into the arms of the one woman who gives him a reason to live—and rejoin the fight against Japan. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Christina Huntington, Jim Meskimen, Chris Emerson, Mark Silverman, and Robert Wu.

Hellʼs Legionnaire: American Dusty Colton flees the French Foreign Legion only to rush headlong into a Berber tribal lair. Despite his long odds of solo escape, he can’t leave a captive American woman behind and must find a way for both of them to outrun the Berber tribe and the Foreign Legion. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Phil Proctor, Gino Montesinos, Brooke Bloom, Michael Yurchak, Jim Meskimen, and Enn Reitel.

Red Death Over China: A breathtaking tale set against the backdrop of China’s civil war. On one side is Chiang Kai-shek and, on the other, the army of Mao Tse-tung. An immense and deciding battle is about to take place, and its outcome oddly lies in the hands of soldier of fortune and pilot John Hampton. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Robert Wu, Chris Emerson, Jim Meskimen, Thomas Silcott, Max Williams, and Tamra Meskimen.

While Bugles Blow!: An American in the French Foreign Legion is caught in the middle of an ancient feud between two tribes in the Moroccan city of Harj. When a gorgeous woman finds herself drawn dangerously into the midst of the conflict, the Lieutenant does what any man must—he saves her … igniting a war. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Christina Huntington, Jim Meskimen, Phil Proctor, and Rick Pasqualone.

Critic Reviews

“Hubbard’s love of storytelling comes through clearly here, G.I. Joe-like Americanism and the sound effects—e.g. the ‘clanking and wheezing’ of bomber engines revving up for an impending suicide mission—greatly enhance the weight of this thoughtful tale.”—Library Journal

“Riveting cliff-hanger action.”—Midwest Book Review

“Fast-paced adventure stories, with the aid of phenomenal sound effects and a strong supporting cast.”—PW
