Arnaldur Indridason's new novel, Outrage, is further evidence that he's one of the most brilliant crime writers of his generation

Such stately, well-mannered entertainment is not to be sniffed at

That rugged Icelandic glacier, Detective Erlendur, is away from Reykjavik and a disturbing case is handled by his female sidekick, Elinborg. The female perspective crates a different kind of novel from those built around Arnaldur Indridason's withdrawn and isolated loner. Here we have a detective worrying about her family while handling with sensitivity the victims of a serial rapist

Indridason is one of the best of the new European authors coming into English, right up there with Henning Mankell and Karen Fossum

Inspector Erlendur is one of the most compassionate detectives to come this way in a long time

Indridason is a master of atmosphere.

Indridason has definitely vaulted onto the A-list of Scandinavian crime authors.

This series places Indridason at the centre of the best of contemporary crime fiction. He is a master storyteller, and has a real gift for evoking the complex humanity at the heart of the most dour-seeming individuals.

[I] enjoyed it so much I can thoroughly recommend this quite superb tale, and urge all to go out and order a copy today. I can’t wait for the second installment.

This was definitely a brilliant book, that is well worth taking the time to invest in and read.

Tense and full of dramatic twists and turns, I look forward to seeing what is next for the witches in part two which is called Fire

Witches are the new black. This is the first in a best-selling Swedish trilogy and it's one you will not want to miss out on... An epic holiday read, it's got a fantastical, interwoven narrative that is just what you need to take you all the from the airport departure lounge to a shady spot beside the pool.

This book was one of those that I just couldn’t put down, and despite its size I found it to be a really quick read. The characters were all so different and yet still fit together in their own way, and I was truly shocked by some of the events. I loved the fact that the book wasn’t too teenage despite taking place in a high school, as the characters have genuine problems to overcome with each trying to find their own way to cope with their powers. A great read, I’m really looking forward to book two!
