Editorial Reviews

"There are many moments of enjoyable prose and descriptions. Sprinkled with humor, the author has real affection for his subject. As a helicopter pilot himself, Darcy Hoover has real-life experiences that give the novel a sense of realism and color." - Self-Publishing Review

****

An adventure packed novel that feels intensely personal, enthralling is the word that readily springs to mind when describing The Helicopter Pilot. Combining the requisite elements of the genre, but refreshingly light on tropes Hoover's debut novel is full of powerfully emotive images and the reward for his readers is a read that feels wholly authentic to its time and place. Quickly gathering momentum it's a must-read for anyone who's dreamed of taking to the skies in a helicopter with Hoover drawing on the breadth of his own experiences to capture the thrill of rotary flight but the intrigue doesn't stop there. The Helicopter Pilot isn't a novel where the contrived metaphor and struggling simile come first. Far too many adventure novels aim for a wide world lense and in doing so prove oddly un-gripping, colourless and unfocused but it's focus, that makes for genuine page-turners and Hoover knows this. Clearly evident in well-nuanced dialogue and social commentary and thereby not only entertaining but enlightening, a feat to which many authors might aspire and few notably achieve.
 A strong and highly entertaining debut from an author you must read The Helicopter Pilot not only makes recommended reading but bodes well for future releases from Hoover who is sure to build an enthusiastic following. - Book Viral
