From the critically acclaimed author of The 25th Hour and When the
Nines Roll Over and co-creator of the HBO series Game of Thrones, a
captivating novel about war, courage, survival - and a remarkable
friendship that ripples across a lifetime. During the Nazis' brutal
siege of Leningrad, Lev Beniov is arrested for looting and thrown
into the same cell as a handsome deserter named Kolya. Instead of
being executed, Lev and Kolya are given a shot at saving their own
lives by complying with an outrageous directive: secure a dozen
eggs for a powerful Soviet colonel to use in his daughter's wedding
cake. In a city cut off from all supplies and suffering
unbelievable deprivation, Lev and Kolya embark on a hunt through
the dire lawlessness of Leningrad and behind enemy lines to find
the impossible. By turns insightful and funny, thrilling and
terrifying, the New York Times bestseller City of Thieves is a
gripping, cinematic World War II adventure and an intimate
coming-of-age story with an utterly contemporary feel for how boys
become men.
