Über diesen Titel

Brought to you by Penguin.

A stunning new standalone thriller from the author of the best-selling Harry Hole series.

In the far north of Norway a man lives a peaceful existence. However, one day his younger brother, always the more successful and charming of the two, turns up to visit, accompanied by his new wife. It soon turns out that the little brother is not quite as angelic as he seems.

Set in a small town filled with secrets, this compellingly dark thriller from the Sunday Times number one best seller has a plot as explosive and multi-layered as any of the Harry Hole novels.

Jo Nesbo has sold over 45 million books worldwide.

The Kingdom is a stunning novel from a storyteller with few equals (Jon Coates)

I have read/listened to all the Harry Hole books. I found them entertaining and gripping but like many series there was more and more repetition and not enough character development. At the beginning of Kingdom I was agreeably surprised. The first half shows us the childhood and adolescence of the two main characters, the brothers. I felt that Nesbo did an excellent job with this book, better than the Harry Hole ones. More psychological background, more facets of the protagonists, less graphic violence.
But the second half was a disappointment. Not much development there, the story lost credibility, there were too many murders and too much getting away with it. Where was the editor, who should have encouraged changes? Such a shame. Nesbo clearly has more talent than he has shown before. And the book may still be worth reading despite the decline towards the end. Perhaps it was the desire to offer something different, something original, something new, when every possible crime seems to have been told already. I will still buy the next stand-alone Nesbo comes up with. I think there is something in the making and next time he might get it right till the last page. Because he is definitely getting better.

Well worth reading despite some flaws

Jo Nesbo apparently has decided it is time for a new approach. No imminent danger or impending evil. The result is, in my humble opinion, rather disappointing.

Not the Jo Nesbo I know

Mostly written in 1st Person so takes a while to get used to but after a while one feels comfortable. It had lots of twists in it which captured me. The ending was not what one expects. Well worth a read!

Enjoyable with lots of twists and turns

Kein Vergleich zu den Harry hole Büchern , Story nicht packend und die Stimme des Erzählers nervt hier.

Langweilig
