Looking For Used Books
« on: April 10, 2014, 08:49:28 PM »
Hi Folks,
I am looking for used copies of the following paperbacks if anyone has them that they would consider selling. I use to have them years ago but sold them to the second hand book seller.
Chickenhawk by Robert Mason
The Silent War by John Sylvester

Thanks for the links Edz.
I bought a copy of Chickenhawk from a second hand book shop just after Christmas and paid $5.00 for it but it looks like a dog has chewed it. I ended up throwing it out.

If I still had Chicken Hawk I wouldn't be giving it away. Fantastic read.

Unfortuneatly lent it to one of the wife's friends to try to inspire her "troubled" son to stay at school and follow his dream to become a helicopter pilot. Now both mum and son are just as troubled as each other. Book long gone.  :-[

Blast from the past - Chickenhawk is a great yarn.

Have my original copy, sorry but can't part with that one - might have to get it out for another read.

Good luck with the links above,
Cheers

Yep, Chickenhawk is a great read…wouldn't part with mine either.
Available on Kindle for $9.70, though…
Cheers,
PS…Mr Mason has a sequel out… Chickenhawk : Back in the world - Life after Vietnam…should be worth reading
