City of Thieves

@jessiewould - I couldn't have said it better myself. Funny that you wrote about a story with a lion hunter today of all days, too.

I love this book. Fun fact: David Benioff is *that* Benioff, one of the Game of Thrones creators. Also, if you like this, check out his book of short stories. One of them, Zoanthropy, is one of my favorite short stories of all time.

This book is darkly delightful. Set during the Nazis’ brutal siege of Leningrad.
