This article relates to He Who Fears The Wolf
Karin Fossum, sometimes dubbed Norway's Queen of Crime, is
the author of many novels, two collections of short
stories, one book of poetry and
one non-crime novel. She made
her literary debut in Norway
with a collection of poetry in
1974. Her crime novels
featuring Inspector Sejer have
been translated into sixteen
languages but
Don't Look Back was the
first to be published in the
USA.
He Who Fears the Wolf is
just out in the USA in paperback and When The Devil Holds the
Candle has just been
published in hardcover.
If you're already a hardened fan of
the series and happen to live in
the UK (or choose to buy your
books online through an
international distributor such
as Amazon), you can also get your
hands on number 4 in the series,
Calling Out For You, and it
looks like the 5th, Black
Seconds, will be out in the
UK in 2007.
When asked what it feels
like to be published in 16
different languages she responds
modestly saying "It feels
strange. I look upon them as
small, quiet stories"
This "beyond the book article" relates to He Who Fears The Wolf. It originally ran in September 2005 and has been updated for the
