I continue to really like the Harry Hole series, and have recommended it to more than a few friends. I have to say though that The Snowman is just not a favorite in the series. Somehow seemed melodramatic, and really tested the limits of what I was willing to believe. That said, it is a page turner.

I was introduced to the series through The Leopard, the book following The Snowman, and that is the one that got me hooked. Great series.
