Many years ago I have already read some Jo Nesbo. Somehow over the years I have dropped him. But since watching the movie Headhunters, I am going on a journey to rediscover him.Many have compared him with Stieg Larsson and vice versa. I do not agree. The two writers have very different style apart from the fact that they both write thrillers. Nesbo's book are much easier to read than Larsson's, who has an underlying social theme. Nesbo,on the other hand, serves up thrilling fast pace fiction that are often reminiscent of a roller coaster ride.I find Nesbo immensely entertaining while Larsson's fiction are more enlightening.
2014 - I will start my journey to reacquaint myself with Jo Nesbo and Harry Hole and his early adventures, while awaiting for the the library's to acquire his latest.
