This 2007, Henry Holt, Signed First Edition/First Printing of VOLK'S GAME by Brent Ghelfi is in Fine/Fine condition with the dustjacket protected by a clear cover. Signed on the title page by BRENT GHELFI. Synopsis As both a major player in the black market and a covert agent for the Russian military, Volk serves two masters: Maxim, a psychotic Azeri mafia kingpin with hordes of loyal informers; and a man known only as the General, to whom Volk is mysteriously indebted. Volk must choose which powerful man he will betray in order to escape with his life. With the high-octane rush and vivid intensity of a feature film, Volk's Game delivers at every turn, announcing Alexei Volkovoy as the boldest hero of a new generation. The Washington Post - Patrick Anderson Brent Ghelfi's first novel, Volk's Game, is pretty much state of the art with regard to a certain kind of thriller. It's an exciting, often brutal story of Russian gangsters fighting over priceless works of art. Its characters are colorful, its descriptions of Russia are vivid and its suspense is palpable. In terms of sheer entertainment, Volk's Game is an impressive debut, and it is not without its serious moments, too, particularly with regard to the bitterness the war in Chechnya has brought home to Russia. The only possible objection to the book is its level of violence, which is off the charts. This is not a novel for the faint of heart.
