Celebrate 50 years of adventure as Chas McGill and friends turn war trophies into perilous games, in Robert Westall''s acclaimed classic and a Carnegie Medal winner, The Machine Gunners.
Chas McGill has the second-best collection of war souvenirs in Garmouth but wants it to be the best. When he stumbles across the wreckage of a downed German bomber, he finds the ultimate trophy – a working machine gun.
Hiding his discovery from the local police, Chas recruits his friends and together they build a fortress for their prize. But war is not a game and soon both friendships and loyalties are tested when the gang''s actions have dangerous consequences.
