From the writer of the award-winning Game of Thrones series for HBO
based on the books of George R. R. Martin. 'David Benioff is an
exceptional storyteller . . . CITY OF THIEVES is tender,
illuminating, and, be warned, often shocking.' Khaled Hosseini Four
months into the siege of Leningrad, the city is starving.
Seventeen-year-old Lev fears for his life when he is arrested for
looting the body of a dead German paratrooper, while his
charismatic cellmate, Kolya, a handsome young soldier arrested for
desertion, seems bizarrely unafraid. Dawn brings, instead of an
execution squad, an impossible challenge. Lev and Kolya can find a
dozen eggs for an NKVD colonel to use for his daughter's wedding
cake, and live. Or fail, and die. In the depths of the coldest
winter in history, through a city cut off from all supplies and
suffering appalling deprivation, man and boy embark on an absurd
hunt. Their search will take them through desolate, lawless
Leningrad and the devastated countryside surrounding it, in the
captivating journey of two men trying to survive against desperate
odds.

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.
From the writer of the award-winning Game of Thrones series for HBO
based on the books of George R. R. Martin. 'David Benioff is an
exceptional storyteller' Khaled Hosseini '[An] acerbically
captivating first novel' New York Times Also adapted as a feature
film by Spike Lee starring Edward Norton and Philip Seymour Hoffman
Monty Brogan starts a seven-year prison sentence for dealing drugs
tomorrow. Tonight is his last night of freedom. His father wants
him to run. His drug-lord boss, Uncle Blue, wants to know if he
squealed. His girlfriend isn't sure what she wants, and his two
best friends know one thing for sure; after he goes in, he will
never be the same. 'As unusual as it is well wrought: it resonates
with a Whitmanesque sense of the city's possibilities and
unsatisfied longings' New Yorker
A tour de force of imaginative storytelling from the critically
acclaimed author of City of Thieves and The 25th Hour and
co-creator of the HBO series Game of Thrones In When the Nines Roll
Over, David Benioff (The 25th Hour, City of Thieves) uses humor and
rich characterizations to explore the sometimes thrilling,
sometimes pathetic emotional lives of a diverse set of characters.
Over the course of eight stories, we are introduced to a host of
young people on the cusp of discovery and loss. As he evokes the
various states of agony and pleasure-humiliation, rebellion,
camaraderie, and desire-Benioff displays a profound understanding
of the transformative power of a single moment and how sadness can
be illuminated by a humorous flip side. When the Nines Roll Over
confirms the promise of a gifted writer emerging as a storytelling
force.
"Novels like The 25th Hour don't fall out of trees every day. The tone is dark and intense; its elegant style is cut on the raw side; and the characters come from places we've all been." -The New York Times All Monty Brogan ever really wanted when he grew up was to be a fireman. Now he's about to start a seven-year stretch in the federal penitentiary for drug dealing. With just twenty-four hours of freedom to go, he prowls the city with his girlfriend and his two best friends from high school-a high-flying bond trader and an idealistic teacher. As the minutes count down, Monty seizes one last chance to stack the odds in his favor.
Hurtling from the money pits of Wall Street to Manhattan's downtown lounge and club scene, from the enclaves of the Russian mob to the old immigrant neighborhoods, The 25th Hour evokes the pulsing rhythms and diamond-hard edges of a city in the raw, illusory hours between midnight and dawn. A taut and mesmerizing tale of an urban purgatory suspended between the crime and the punishment, The 25th Hour heralds the arrival of a major player in contemporary noir fiction.
