This original, fast-paced tale catapults us into the seedy underworld of a country whose violent past still echoes into a fractured present. "Prisoners" meets "The Deer Hunter."

Ex-soldier, and widower, Frank Sokol must face the ghosts of the past when he returns to his native Croatia with his Canadian-born 11-year-old son, Ben. But when Ben is kidnapped, Frank will be forced to mend deep-seated familial wounds, and resort to his military training to get him back. Nothing will prepare him for what his search for his boy will uncover.

Industry Reviews

"This is one of the most riveting graphic novels I've read in a long time." - ComicsGrinder.com "I recommend this book to everyone. Not only are the events compelling and thought provoking but the authors have put a tremendous effort into making the characters real, believable and endearing." - TheFrogQueen ""Balkans Arena" is a solid dramatic tale that focuses on the right themes and doesn't bombard us with gratuitous violence. Thirault and Miguel tell a human tale, flaws and all." - GeekedOutNation.com "Books like this approach the level of great literature..." - FloridaGeekScene.com "Balkans Arena is caustic, it's corrosive, and it is frightening. Author Philippe Thirault shows us what Battle Royale might look like if it existed today, operating without the public's knowledge, let alone its permission." - DoomRocket.com
