13. THE DEVIL'S STAR (2005) by Jo Nesbo

Jul 2012

I was disappointed to see that the villain in the first book is still a pain in Harry's rear and am getting tired of him. Also, this book's about a serial killer , and I don't like serial killer stories. Plus, the book is just too long, sometimes very confusing, maybe due to the translation from Norwegian to English.

I started it anyway and got interested in it; I was going to take it back to the library without reading it. But Harry Hole is such an interesting character that the story pulled me in. This is the third in the series about Harry Hole, a cop in Oslo, Norway.
