That was the first person I thought of when I saw the new cover. Either way, it beats looking like Nancy Drew!NancyOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027036137062767840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506358489015565993.post-8437314385002275132012-03-01T13:58:05.636-05:002012-03-01T13:58:05.636-05:00I meant to say that the woman in the older cover r...I meant to say that the woman in the older cover reminds me of the actress Cheryl Campbell. :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506358489015565993.post-55184922383308634982012-03-01T10:37:59.050-05:002012-03-01T10:37:59.050-05:00oops: here's the link to

I'm linking it here.<br /><br />I have seen it all in crime fiction (well, hopefully not!) so Satanic ritual stuff doesn't bother me.

I wish they were translated in the order published. There are still a few earlier ones of Arnaldur Indridason's that haven't been translated.

I'm not sure why if the other books were already out that book 2 would have been skipped, but of well.<br /><br />The cover of my copy of DI Huss reminds me somewhat of the cover of a Nancy Drew mystery I read as a kid -- actually two books: The Secret of Red Gate Farm and The Clue in the Old Album. I'm glad they updated it.NancyOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027036137062767840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-506358489015565993.post-61202155977773688012012-02-28T06:54:43.938-05:002012-02-28T06:54:43.938-05:00Excellent review of DIHuss.

(I'm skipping NR until I can read it).<br />I loved the three Tursten novels translated so far (I've reviewed them at Euro Crime), and am eagerly awaiting Night Rounds to be available in the UK, which it will be in a month or two. Pity that she never got a UK publisher as the only people here who read her are those who buy the US editions online.Maxine Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628509319992204770noreply@blogger.com
