review 1: The Redeemer (there isn't an entry for this book by itself).Nesbo's Harry Hole (which he claims is pronounced "hula", even though the audio books consistently pronounce it "hole".... I wonder why this is? Don't they consult the author?).. anyway... his novels are always intriguing, very well-written and definitely keep me interested. I have liked every one and look forward to the rest. I liked Redbreast and this one the best so far.
review 2: Review only of: The Redeemer by Jo nesbo. WEAR WARM CLOTHES WHEN READING THIS BOOKThe more I read of Jo Nesbo’s writings, the more amazed I become at this man’s talent. The Redeemer again provides us with another of Nesbo’s usual brilliantly plotted, multi-layered mysteries, fascinating, absorbing and complex. We ca... moren take that for granted with Nesbo. A wonderful story; a fantastic read.But now I begin to notice the world in which the mysteries are set, a large and real world, peopled with real people going unconsciously about their daily lives, atmospheric, brooding and freezing cold. So aware is the writer of the winter season during which the murders take place, so realistic is the writing, that I am tempted to advise any reader to wear warm clothing while reading this book. Then there is Harry Hole, a complex character, full of surprises. Attempting in this story to reform his alcoholism (at times failing), he reveals an erudite and well-read side to his persona as well as his remarkable gift for operating on the fringes of imperceptible truths that are totally invisible to everyone else. Here is a truly memorable character, another of literature’s great creations to rival Poirot, Morse or Holmes. One day there has to be a TV series, or a movie, and Harry Hole will become a household name.Effortlessly, seamlessly, while the detectives detect, the world of the book grows around the story while the writing is filled with trenchant observations about life, love, death and living. A tour de force. I cannot recommend this author highly enough. less
