I was not expecting to like this one all that much. Oli is hardly my favorite character and I wasn't excited to follow him for a whole book. Little did I understand that he is the himbo supreme. Black Skies reads like a super raw American crime novel, like McBain, but it also has a thematic cohesiveness that adds a ton of power to it. Now, onto Strange Shores. Eastward!
Well, not actually about Erlendur.
This feels as though the author wanted to get inside the head of one of his side characters - Erlendur's colleague Sigurdur Oli.
Not the best in the series, but it drew me in.
This was my first time sampling this author's work, and I've started rather late in the series. Whilst I disliked the main protagonist, overall I enjoyed the book, found it gripping with many plot twists. I shall definitely add it's predecessors to my lengthy want-to-read list.
