I decided to pick up the latest book by Jo Nesbo - billed as the "Norwegian Stieg Larsson" - because I was curious about this new trend of explicitly gruesom I'm not a fan of crime fiction, unless it was written by Raymond Chandler, but that's not crime fiction - that's noir literature.

There is even some personal growth on Hole's immediate family front, where both sister and father play a limited by significant role in the larger narrative. He's been away for some time, but his ghosts have a way of catching up with him. Somehow, they figure that all the victims stayed at a particular alpine cabin on a particular night.

It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness. It was confusing at first but I like that about his work, you have to concentrate and the twists at the end are always worth waiting for. Clearly the ovellist gets the credit for the book - but Don must be priased for his ability to include mere English-speakers into this Oslo world of snow and ice, good and evil, winners and losers. The Thirst: Harry Hole The crime scenes offer no clues, the media is reaching fever pitch, and the police are running out of options. The next half of the book had me hooked, great story and so many potential baddies, I couldn't put it down. Yes the Snowman was great but I think this is one step further on to perfection. Having said that, there is much to commend in this novel which is well written and evidently well translated. See our disclaimer. Harry Hole is in a personal mess after his last case and has hidden himself away in Hong Kong, but Norway seems to have a new serial killer in their midst and they are stumped. And when Erlend Vennesla saw a light suddenly come on in front of him, for a moment he thought it was her torch, and that she was running again, and he was on the motorbike that had gone after her and caught her up.

  • Jo Nesbo's HARRY HOLE
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Nottingham Trent Institutional Repository (IRep) Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole Murray Pratt The vantage points of international allegory Whether measured by sales figures, reach, celebrity standing, cultural influence or departure-lounge sightings, it is beyond contestation that Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole Thriller series (1997–2014) has joined detective fiction’s big league. And while both author and character are firmly rooted in Norwegian society and culture (the former played football for Molde FK and is a member of the band Di Derre; the latter is drawn back to Oslo and its underworlds despite his globe-trotting tendencies), their respective successes have been enjoyed on an international scale. Since the first English-language translation of a Hole Thriller was released (Marekors/The Devil’s Star in 2005 [2003]), the series has gone on to sell over 23 million copies worldwide. Surfing the wave of ‘Nordic Noir’, or ‘Scandicrime’ with a profile to rival Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series (2004–07) or television’s Forbrydelsen/The Killing (DR1, 2007–12) and Broen/Bron/The Bridge (SVT1/DR1, 2011–), Hole’s adventures are increasingly branded and marketed as emblematic of this now established genre— witness the sepia-tinted, Stieg Larsson-inspired city maps that lead readers into Oslo’s cityscape in Vintage’s 2013 release of Politi/Police, together with the back-page testimony from the Sunday Mirror’s Deirdre O’Brien: ‘Scandinavian crime thrillers don’t come much darker or more tense than the bestselling Harry Hole series’.
