– This is a book review of "The Legend of Lilia," a historical novel based on the true story of Lilia Litvyak, the world's first female fighter pilot. The reviewer describes the book as an exceptional story about a story, filled with adventure, courage, history, tragedy, and a touch of romance. The book chronicles the mystery surrounding the final fate of Lilia Litvyak, who disappeared in the skies above the front in 1943, after shooting down one enemy aircraft after another to earn the designation of ace. The review provides a brief summary of the book, explaining how Lilia joined the air combat regiments comprised exclusively of female pilots authorized by Stalin after the German Army smashed through the Soviet border in 1941. The author's command of the subject matter and skill in bringing history to life is praised. The book's writing is described as solid, with aerial dog fights, ground crews, and battle scenes detailed with precision and accuracy. The story-within-a-story of the massive graft, fraud, and corruption that was the Soviet Union is also detailed, and how it impacted the life of one female fighter pilot, her family, and history. The review concludes by stating that the book is meticulously researched and briskly paced, and it appeals to military history buffs and anyone who enjoys a well-told story. It is described as a little Twelve O'clock High and a little Top Gun, and thoroughly engrossing. The review awards the book a five-star rating, describing it as a monument to Lilia Litvyak, who has a monument in a small coal mining town in what is now Ukraine.
