War of the rats by david l robbins5/9/2023 Now with his third book, "The End of War: A Novel of the Race for Berlin" (Bantam Doubleday Dell, $24.95), Robbins again returns to the crucible of war as a backdrop for what is really important to him: how people react in the cruelest of environments. Robbins came close with last year's "War of the Rats" a novel about the siege of Stalingrad and about a strange cat-and-mouse duel between a Russian and a German sniper. "We really feel he has grown as an author and this book can be his breakout novel." "David has definitely raised the bar with 'The End of War,'" says Chris Artis, a senior publicist for Bantam Books on Robbins' latest. And now, after two published novels, it looks as if the third time might be the charm for this Richmond native. As an attorney in South Carolina he had a good track record, but always wanted to be a novelist. As an actor he starred in many productions and commercials, even working with Glenn Close when both were students at the College of William and Mary.
