In Kanone Homer’s epic the Iliad lives again, its ancient war-cry now heard along a forgotten stretch of the Western Front. The Ste Helene Salient is strategically important to both Britain and Germany and, as winter descends upon 1917, both their great armies are locked in a fierce and bloody struggle for its possession. Soldiers fight and die while in the bronze-red skies above them heroes contest the heavens in search of glory. Oberleutnant Willi Buchner is one such hero, an ace with many victories to his credit. Nothing can stop him from becoming Germany’s greatest fighter pilot, nothing that is except his pride.
