myzanm's review against another edition
3.0
Nostalgi på hög nivå. Slukade dessa böcker som tonåring efter att min kusin styrt mig i den här riktningen... Jag gick nog ganska villigt. Det var ju oerhört spännande för en boktörstig 13-åring att läsa vuxenböcker.
På den tiden älskade jag alla Sandemo-böcker förbehållslöst. Nu kan jag konstatera att de egentligen knappt når upp till medelmåttans nivå språkligt och rent tekniskt. Men det går inte att komma ifrån att själva berättelsen fortfarande har viss lyster och drag.
Detta är inte den bästa boken jag läst, inte heller den sämsta. Hade jag introducerats till isfolket idag vet jag faktiskt inte vad jag tyckt. Det är svårt att se över nostalgins och ungdomens rosa skimrande glas. Att åter upptäcka isfolket blir som att återupptäcka de känslor och tankar jag hade som tonåring. Det går inte att betygsätta.
For my English speaking friends...
This book series is pure nostalgia. These are the first books I got in contact with more spicy literature as a 13-year old, and it stuck. Some of my likes to day can be traced back to these books. They are by no means high literature, but still holds on to me. Reading them again is like reliving my thoughts and feelings from when I was a teen. I wouldn't let my own kids read this at 13, but at 15 or above there would probably be far worse and more explicit things they could get their hands on. My parents didn't really know what I was reading. It was good enough that my slightly older cousin had recommended them to me...

Ég las þessa bók fyrst þegar ég var sirka fjórtán ára og var að passa bróðurson minn. Hann svaf og mig vantaði eitthvað til að stytta mér stundir og fann þá þessa bók — og reyndar næstu tvær í röðinni — í bókahillu bróður míns og mágkonu. Ég tók upp bókina og gleypti hana í mig. Þær næstu komu strax á eftir og svo tók við biðin eftir nýjum bókum og sú bið entist í nokkur ár þar til sú síðasta kom út. Fyrstu bækurnar eru bestar og þessi alfyrsta er alltaf í uppáhaldi. Fyrir nokkrum árum endurlas ég fyrstu fimm bækurnar eða svo og fannst gaman en las svo ekki lengra. Núna var ég stödd á gistiheimili með svo lélegan leslampa að ég sá eiginlega ekkert á bókina sem ég hafði tekið með mér. Svo ég opnaði Storytel til að leita að einhverjum rafbókum þar. Þessi varð á vegi mínum svo ég las hana í þriðja sinn og hafði alveg jafngaman af því og áður. Hreint afbragð þessi bók. Ég er byrjuð á næstu en ég veit ekki hversu langt ég les að þessu sinni. Kannski bara þessar fyrstu aftur.
