“War Dogs Don’t Dance” is a brutal and sometimes very funny parable in the best traditions of Guy Ritchie’s films: about a world where loyalty is an animal instinct. Former fighting dog Arap lives a measured life - he guards his master’s barn and spends his free hours drinking aniseed drinks. waste from a local distillery. One day, two of Arap's friends - the Rhodesian Ridgeback Theo and the aristocrat show greyhound Handsome Boris - disappear without a trace, and Arap, sensing something is wrong, goes in search of them. He will be forced to make his way to the place where he once gained fame as an excellent killer and where he hoped to never return - to the pit of the Flayer. However, getting there is half the battle; you need to be able to get your paws out of there. Welcome to a world where there is no political correctness and social responsibility, but only loyalty, ingenuity and sincerity. A world where mercy awaits the innocent and retribution for the guilty. Welcome to the world of dogs. Arturo Perez-Reverte never repeats himself - each of his books is different from the previous one. But in this case, he outdid himself and justified the best hopes of his devoted readers. Winner of prestigious awards in the field of literature and journalism, member of the Royal Spanish Academy since 2003 and author of world bestsellers, Arturo Pérez-Reverte usually presents himself to his readers in a completely different way: “I am a reader who writes books that I myself would be interested in reading.” Whatever he tells the story about - about the search for lost treasures, about a tango that lasts two lives, or about the wanderings of a noble mercenary, through the pages of his books he travels along with their heroes, at the same time as the readers unravel the secrets and mysteries of their past.
