lsparrow's review against another edition

Murder mysteries are not my favorite genre but this series i cannot put down. I love the range of characters, the twists in plot, the themes beyond the mystery, the connections and emotions of people and how it plays out. I was also excited to find out that the books are written by husband wife duo - which i think explains some of the flow and the range of characters that are developed.

The more I read from the duo "Lars Kepler" the more hooked up I get. Their novels are very fast paced, entertaining and full of twists and turns. It's definitely a "weekend" or easy read if you want to disconnect a bit and just loose yourself in a thrilling mystery. The characters are decently formed, with enough info about them to get the picture, but not enough to become boring.

To be precise, I would rate it with 4.5 stars.
I didn't like how the authors tried to build interest and tension early on in the book, it felt really forced. But as the story went on everything fell right to its place and the plot is interesting. It seemed like a miracle at the end when Joona managed to shoot a bodyguard and Raphael with the same bullet in all that chaos, plus having a migrene, but honestly, I'm just glad that the book had a happy end. Big thanks to the authors for writing what happened with other characters and not just finishing the story after the end of a big mission. All in all, I enjoyed reading this book and I'm planning to read all of them in this series.

Összegzésként a könyv tényleg izgalmas volt, és nem hagyott nyugodni. Továbbá imádtam azt a tényt, hogy a szereplőink is ott szaladgálnak, ahol egykor én is szaladgáltam, ugyan azon a vonalon metróznak, amerre én is mentem, a helyek, a helyszínek említének a ténye is feldobott :)) Viszont a fordításon nem tudtam elmenni, néha az volt írva, hogy väg (út), vagy gata (utca), néha pedig le volt fordítva. Egységesen szerintem jobban mutatott volna, viszont nagyot nevettem, amikor megláttam leírva, hogy Drottning utca. NEJ. Drottninggatan :) De ez már szőrszálhasogatás.
Szóval A Paganini-szerződést meleg szívvel ajánlom a skandináv (svéd) krimik szerelmeseinek, a millenniumos gondolat pedig valószínűleg annak fel sem tűnik, aki nem koncentrál rá erre az egészre olyan szinten, mint én. Ha pedig szerettek moziba járni, akkor extrán ajánlom a könyv elolvasását, ugyanis ha minden igaz, akkor 2015-ben érkezik a film :)

Tenho todos os livros de Lars Kepler, com os quais estou completamente obcecada desde que li A Vidente. Acima de tudo o que mais me atraí é a escrita e a forma como nos cativa. No entanto, tenho a dizer que este deixou muito a desejar. Dos que já li até agora achei o mais fraco. O problema centra-se mesmo na história em si. Não me consigo identificar com toda a questão política e pessoal do país. O que me atraiu inicialmente para os livros desta dupla de escritores foi o facto de se tratar de homicídios, mas sempre relacionado de alguma forma com assassinos em séries, etc. Não é o caso desta vez. Tornou-se aborrecido para mim, não consegui criar qualquer tipo de ligação com as personagens e apesar de não ter sido essa a razão por ter levado tanto tempo a acabar, acho que o poderia ter feito muito mais rápido se fosse outro tema abordado.
Já lá vão três livros e Joona Linna ainda não me diz absolutamente nada.

Fanns ibland långa delar av tråkig historia eller typ ingående fakta om musikteori, det drog ner betyget :/
Slutet var faktiskt inte heller jättebra
Annars spännande
