Fictional Titles RAF Bomber Command and Luftwaffe Night Fighters

[jay hammond]

I have tried, without success, to find a book or at least a significant compendium, of fictional novels about RAF Bomber Command and Luftwaffe Night Fighters. You would think it would be an easy task but other than a few famous ones like Deighton's Bomber the list, if one exists, is small. Is anyone out there who is familiar with such a book or bibliography citing such fictional accounts? Any help you can provide would be gratefullly accepted. Cheers, Jay.

Do not have a list but off the top of my head there is a two book series by David Bruce titled "Finishing School" and "Falcon" about a Lancaster crew. Caird Publications, available on Amazon.

Editorial note: all novels are fiction!
Anyway:
Look no farther than Len Deighton's Bomber from 1970 I've probably read it 3 or 4 times.
The follow-on Goodbye Mickey Mouse (8th AF fighters) is...
missable.
