      Interesting plot, basically true to life. Engaging characters. Worth reading. All three of the series, really.
    • 5/5
      I have read the complete trilogy translated to the English from Swedish (good translation). The entire body of the trilogy is very detailed which added to the enjoyment of the read. I am thankful to a Norwegian friend who recommended these works of historical fiction.
    • 5/5
      It was a good story. I would be interested in reading book 1 and 2
