The Brighton Boys in the Radio Service is a boys adventure story set in WWI - Three College Chums join the military and face the perils of spies, submarines and enemy soldiers in the trenches of embattled Europe. An engaging story set in a period where good guys wore white hats, bad guys wore black hats and every chapter ends with a cliffhanger so you have to come back for more!

Reviews

Show how depraved we used to be


(5 stars)

Shows young men to be un- ironically being patriotic. Young men back in those dark days apparently looked up to and tried to emulate older folks. They had the backwards idea that young folks were supposed to learn from older folkz.How disgusting. We now know it is the young folks obligation to teach the older folks how to think. Everyone was apparently cis- gendered. There was no righteous outrage over the oppression of BIPOCs. It is crazy that we managed to survive all those dark times and can now live in the glorious transgendered , class and race conscious utopia. Just listening to these young kids blithely going about their lives without realizing they are part of a hegemonic control system systemically designed to oppress anybody not like them makes me want to throw up. But it is good to know how we lived back then.

My first audio book. Very well done. The Morse code was accurately done. Pace of the reading was appropriate, and the inflection of the readers voice added to the narrative.
