A legend is born.
Join Biggles as he takes to the skies for the first time over the trenches and battlefields of France in World War One.
Flying in his trusty Sopwith Camel fighter with the men of 266 Squadron, Biggles duels German aces, leads daring raids on enemy aerodromes and helps British spies complete their missions in a series of classic adventures.
We also meet key characters; Algernon 'Algy' Montgomery Lacey appears here for the first time, as does Colonel Raymond and Captain 'Wilks' Wilkinson. And Biggles meets the love of his life, Marie Janis, when he crash lands behind the lines...
Introducing James 'Biggles' Bigglesworth, in his first ever adventures!
