"Kepler has a direct line to a very dark place in the human soul." (Lev Grossman, Time)

Members Reviews:

Terrifying

Saul Reichlin is a master of foreign-language thriller audio, and he's used to really scary effect in this Scandi-horror with a kick-ass heroine and an even more kick-ass hero. The villain is the most frightening yet in the series. Must-listen

Excellent book

Lars kelper is fast becoming one of my fave authors, the detailed descriptions in his book could easily of been too much but he manages to use them to enhance the tone of the novel - this was a fantastic book with lots of surprises I would highly recommend it on audible as the reader is amazing

Unputdownable!

Well, if I had been physically reading it instead of listening to it it would have been! Nearly listened the whole night through, was so exciting, and atmospheric, which is what I particularly like about Nordic Noir. This is my first Lars Kepler, who I understand is a husband and wife team, after being used to the calmer waters of Henning Mankell and the lovely Wallender. Quite different but equally as good. Would highly recommend, but please note it is the last in a series of Joona Linna books, so try and find one of the others first, annoying coming in at the end of a series :)

Wow

Would you consider the audio edition of The Sandman to be better than the print version?

Have not read the print edition but would not want to miss the fantastic narration

Which character as performed by Saul Reichlin was your favourite?

The policeman was the central character for me

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

The most fantastic story, characters , and narration

Really Enjoyed!

I really enjoyed this book!

I could listen to Saul Reichlin all day & so a great story & Saul Reichlin, makes it a must for me.

I enjoyed the story, it kept my interest & when I needed to rewind, when I was interrupted, the rewinds were short.

Who did it? Who were they? What really happened? What was going to happen? All great for making you read on!

5* from me!
