Robin

Was a bit disappointed. love his books. Maybe I just have to get a bit more used to listening on a phone and not from a cd.

A true delight

Writing, plotting, story, narrative and narration - above all, imagination - all first class as ever. 'A true delight" - yes, despite the brutal subject matter.
My only slight disappointment was Rat Island which I felt wanted to be a fully-fledged novel but failed the test and was rescued to become a compromised short story, but I am mistaken. I still enjoyed it thoroughly nonetheless

Unforgettable writing

Jo Nesbo has created a series of exciting, unbelievably creative and astounding descriptions of mood and landscapes. His development of characters were so detailed and exact you feel bereft when the story ended. Nesbo’s time travel into the future to societies both terrifying and real are completely absorbing. He understands love In it’s many forms and expresses the passion between a man and a woman and the profound love of father for child, mother for child beyond the severity of the world around them.
Best read for a long time.

Mixed

I really enjoyed most of the Jealousy part of the book. The second part was more sci-fi or dystopian as well as real world.

Rat Island was too long.

Overall mixed response.

Mesmerizing

From the brilliant intro to the fantastic finale
The stories range a wide contemporary spectrum
As a nesbo fan I’m glad he found his pace again since the last book about the brothers was hard going
