Jo Nesbø – a Norwegian musician, economist and writer – is about to release his third book, called “The Devil’s Star”, in America in March.
His writing style is often compared to Stieg Larsson, and his critically acclaimed books offer a fast pace with twists and turns and a dark yet intriguing insight into the criminal mind. His first translation into english, Nemesis, was recently nominated for an Edgars Award in the "Best Novel" category. The Edgars will celebrate the best mystery novelist of 2009, in New York on the 29th of April.
Jo Nesbø has been reviewed in publications all across the U.S., from east to west, and from the New York Times Book Review to the San Diego Union-Tribune, Jo Nesbø gets amazing praise, including a new blurb from Michael Connelly that reads; “Jo Nesbø is my new favorite thriller writer and Harry Hole my new hero”.
The Devil's Star will be available in bookstores everywhere on March 9th, and can also be ordered directly from Amazon.com.
