>Totally unrelated to the topic, have you read anything by Jo Nesbo? I have been tearing through them. I have never been anywhere near Norway but his descriptions, especially of Oslo, are so specific that I feel like I have been there. It's the same way Ian Rankin is about Edinburgh. They even have similar protagonists.
If it's unrelated to the topic, don't post it. There's Chatter forum for such crap.
