It is a genre I don't usually read but I guess that from now on I will. This book was so great and intense most of the time. I cannot say there was a part I didn't like. And the ending ..wooh, that was incredibly awesomely amazing!! (I feel like I'm never going to look at snowmen the same ways as...
This was my first Jo Nesbo book and it makes me want to read more. The plot line is intricate and weaves around leading us from one sombre location to another. You can almost feel the dark, cold Norwegian winter as Harry Hole attempts to find a serial killer whose calling card is a snowman. Ha...
A serial killer in Oslo has a bizarre agenda. Time after time the murderer lures a cop to the scene of an unsolved crime, then viciously kills him/her in a manner somehow connected to what originally happened there. Harry Hole is not available to assist the investigation so other members of the c...
hum.....not my favorite Harry Hole novelIt was "light" in comparison to some prior novels such as Snowman which was a needed change but this book just didn't do it for me. I realize there are "loose ends" i.e. Aurora, partial finger prints, Valentin which are intended to tie in to the next novel...
This is a review of The Redeemer. I did not read all 5 books but I could not find a listing for The Redeemer by itself. If you like tangled, complicated murder mysteries with interesting characters and great dialgue and prose with layers of revelations like peeling an onion this is the book for y...
In this book, Doctor Proctor tries to make something useful, anti-fart powder. But he actually makes fart-inducing powder... So Nilly brings it to school and it is stolen from him by big, mean bullies and Nilly goes through a bunch of adventures to get the powder back so Doctor Proctor can secure...

Cute. Wasn't as amazing as I'd first expected, but it's adorable. I loved the characters, and the setting, and even the story. I think I was unimpressed by the stupidity of the adults... Much as there are so many kids books in which the adults just don't follow through for the kids in their charg...
який же він класнючий, цей несбьо. от коли ерленд лу пише дитячі книжки, то якось природно, у нього й дорослі такі. а одночасно вигадати харрі холе і доктора проктора – це щось нереальне. російською порошок із назви просто "волшебный", зате поляки зробили суцільну красу: "доктор проктор і прошек-...
I can say, without a doubt, that my children loved this book. I have three boys and this book is about making a powder that produces farts. Enough said. The characters were sweet and loveable, except for the ones who weren't supposed to be, like the Trane family. There was a good message abou...
it pains me to say this about a Nesbo book, but I didnt think it was all that great.I read it out loud to kids (8+7) and fell over way too many words...It seemed to take an age to get through asit just didnt flow.we werent sure what age range it was for, as the characters were ten or so, but felt...
Zelo zabavna zgodba o raztresenemu znanstveniku, ultramajcenemu dečku in deklici, ki je preveč pridna, da bi jo imel lahko kdo res rad, ki skupaj postanejo sanjsko moštvo za prdenje. Doktor Proktor je namreč končno izumil nekaj uporabnega, in sicer Povsem navadni prdoprašek ter Prdonavtski prašek...
