I loved the tv show (looking forward to season 3) and the book is a bit different with respect to some plot details but is also really good. The author has written 3 books with one more coming so I hope the library will get the rest of them.

Excellent sequel. I liked the way she combined some of the aspects of the tv show with the story.

I love this series but found this book not as compelling or involving as the others. Dare I say I even skipped parts of it, which I have never done before. Perhaps the author is producing the books too quickly as in one a year. Anyway, I'm glad I read it but not my favourite.I love this series but found this book not as compelling or involving as the others.

I have read all the Harry Hole books and I think this one is the best so far. Could not put it down. Can't wait for the next one.

Excellent series. Didn't realise how interesting Danish politics can be. Shows the pitfalls of proportional representation.

This is a terrific show and I'm so glad VIRL have it. Well acted, great visuals, compelling and weird. Perfect.

This is a wonderful book and I found myself totally drawn into the story. If you have no interest in Greek mythology or love it this is the book for you. Can't wait to read the author's other novel now.

It was o.k. A bit too much "James Bond" for me and not enough Nesbo and Wallander. I may try the 2nd one in the series.

Enjoyed the first half of this book but then I felt it "rambled" on a bit too much. Needed some editing.

What a disappointment. I loved the original series and was really looking forward to this one but it was so dull and boring, I never finished it. Never believed I would associate Lisbeth with boring. Hope someone else takes a crack at these characters. This was a waste of time.What a disappointment.

A good addition to the series but I prefer Thorne in London settings.

I enjoyed the first half to two-thirds of this book and then it just got overly complex, boring and far too long.

I was disappointed in this album. I expected some different interpretations of these great songs but other than a couple there was nothing new. Better to listen to the originals.

Not quite as good as Child 44 but still a good read. I'm going to read Agent 6 to finish the trilogy.

Very good book; I could not put it down. Very bleak and disturbing but the love between the man and the boy is beautiful.
