I've read all Jo Nesbo's books since the beginning of 2011. I'm in love with Harry Hole, so it is a shame that Jo's new book doesn't include him. I prefer these books to Stieg Larsson's. I read The Leopard first and almost didn't, as the metal torture ball was so gruesome. I like the fact that the plots are complicated and you just have to keep reading to see what is going to happen next.

I am reading the book right now - so far so good. Being a Stieg Larsson addict, like 60 million around the world, it sounds Mr. Nesbo does not appreciate the comparison and I don't see much to compare myself. I like the writing so far, perhaps better than Stieg's. But I am hoping it catches hold of me like Millenium Trilogy did. Good luck to Mr. Nesbo. (I agree completely with the Dan Brown comment as I could not get past the writing problems myself with those books).

Go JO!!!!! Excellent writer!

I purchased Jo's newest book 'The Leopard', in England and in English translation, just two weeks ago. Great read! Perhaps even better than The Snowman. I anticipate a next novel set to a greater degree in Hong Kong. I enjoyed the previous 3 novels as well. Thanks.

I have spent a cool summer in New York City by retreating to Norway whenever I could to follow Harry Hole. I've read everything available so far and now I want more, more, more! Thanks Jo
