A ver, bien, pero solo me lo he leído porque dicen que la cosa mejora a partir del tercer libro, y no me ha aportado nada más que eso.

Супер књига, за сада од Слепог миша и Црвендаћа најбоља од те теи, у рангу са Снешком.

I am a little late finding Jo Nesbo. This is just the second book in the series that I have read, and I have enjoyed both of them. After reading the first two books, I still don't have a clear picture of the kind of man Harry is. Sometimes he is hard to like because he doesn't even like himself; he is hard to respect because he doesn't respect himself. He has made some terrible mistakes that he has a hard time coming to terms with. He is still making mistakes, and sometimes that is harsh for readers who are close to alcoholics.

With all of that said, he is still able to solve the mystery, even though there are influential people who do not want, or expect, him to succeed. It gives me a feeling of cheering for the underdog when Harry Hole is solving his case. I'll keep reading this series because it is not your ordinary murder mystery.

I quite enjoyed this book. Felt it was a little more fast paced then the first one The Bat. I really enjoyed following Harry Hole along on this trip to Thailand to solve the murder of Norway's ambassador.
