'Lilja Sigurdardottir is brilliant at plotting and I love how she brought together all the different strands (both from this novel and the previous novels in the series) in an intelligent way that kept me engaged in what was happening the whole way through.'

*know and love! #Iceland #IcelandicNoir #BookSky #FictionInTranslation
Some of my favourite #IcelandicNoir reads here! #BookSky 🇮🇸 #FictionInTranslation
It certainly is ideal 'snuggle up warm with a chilly #IcelandicNoir book' weather for sure! I certainly shan't be staying too far from the sofa today! 💙📚🇮🇸 #amreading
Cover of the Lilja Sigurðardóttir Book 'Black as Death' with title and author name in yellow font and an image of a woman in a yellow puffer coat with her back to us, in a wintry scene
Cover of the Ragnar Jónasson book 'Snowblind' with bonus prequel 'Fadeout' showing a wintry scene with a car driving towards a stationary figure
Today's the day! Not one but TWO brilliant slices of #IcelandicNoir hit the shelves (& the Snowblind spredges edition is to die for!) thanks to lovely @orendabooks.bsky.social! #BlackAsDeath ends the Áróra series, and #Snowblind, esp with fab prequel #Fadeout, starts the #DarkIceland! Go get'em! 💙📚🇮🇸
Cover of the Ragnar Jónasson book 'Snowblind' in a gorgeous 10th anniversary edition with a prequel 'Fadeout'. The book is dark teal with white frosty writing and a wintry scene. The sprayed edges are navy and teal frosting
I might have to store this beauty backwards on my shelf as those spredges are just too good to hide! Just 2 days left till you can get your mitts on a #Snowblind anniversary edition 🤩❄️ For many of us it was our 1st foray into #IcelandicNoir, & now it comes with a fab #Fadeout prequel 💙📚 #DarkIceland
My first #IcelandicNoir too, and in 2016 - then we visited Sigló because of it! I love this reissue, it's such a beautiful book 😍
How gorgeous a tome is this?! And the prequel #Fadeout is a great intro to #AriThór as well 🤩 If you're into #IcelandicNoir, Siglufjörður, #AgathaChristie -style locked room thrillers, Iceland, #FictionInTranslation or just having a bloody lovely looking book on your shelves - this one's for you! 💙📚
Hey A.C! Yes, like you I'm loving seeing more #IcelandicNoir on our shores! Corylus have loads of great ones to choose from, Jón Atli's #Broken is fab, Stella Blómkvist is great fun, quite racy, Óskar Guðmundsson's ones are darker, Sólveig Pálsdóttir is a great observer of people - I love them all!
Another exciting release from @corylusbooks.bsky.social, tr. @graskeggur.bsky.social ! Check out the blog tour for A Lethal Legacy below! #Iceland #IcelandicNoir #BookSky 🔎💀📚💙 I have a name quirk that meant it took me a while to get the sisters straight in my head but once in I really enjoyed it! 🤩
Without the hard work and talent of @graskeggur.bsky.social, I would not have been able to read so many of my beloved #IcelandicNoir books! #Translation #translators
(2/2) recently on @hobeckbooks.bsky.social podcast interview with Quentin about his entry into reading Icelandic during his time on the fishing boats 🥰 Check out #Broken and loads of other #IcelandicNoir books translated by Quentin from the lovely @corylusbooks.bsky.social! #SupportAnIndie 💙📚
Wúhú! My fave translator - he brought me my first #IcelandicNoir ( #Snowblind - look out for the fab 10yr anniv edition with gorgeous spredges AND bonus prequel #Fadeout!), and many, many since, including his own wonderful Gunnhildur series! Hours of pleasure thanks to Quentin & others like him! 🇮🇸💙📚

I reviewed "Murder Tide" in July: www.angryalgonquin.com/murder-tide-...
A 4 pane collage showing the book covers of Jon Atli Jónasson's Broken, Stella Blómkvist's Murder Tide, Ragnar Jónasson's Snowblind (with Fadeout prequel) & Lilja Sigurðardóttir's Black as Death
Here's an #AwesomeFoursome for #BuyABookDay that'll also happily #SupportAnIndie! Preorder from @orendabooks.bsky.social Ragnar Jónasson (9/10)& @liljawriter.bsky.social (23/10) & if you need an #IcelandicNoir fix NOW @corylusbooks.bsky.social have you covered with #Broken & #MurderTide! 🇮🇸 #BookSky
I can't TELL you how excited I am about this 10th anniversary special edition of #Snowblind, my 1st ever #IcelandicNoir - now with prequel #Fadeout, that I was expecting to be a short story BUT LOOK HOW BIG IT IS! Also, the intros from Anthony Horowitz & Ragnar made me pick up Nine Ways to Die (1/2)
Look at this beauty 🤩 Ari Thór was my 1st ever #IcelandicNoir & I've never looked back - now #Snowblind is 10yrs old, like our visits to #Iceland 😊 When we did the Ring Road on our 2nd visit, we included a stop in Siglufjörður, so I could visit Ari Thór's police station! So excited for #Fadeout! 💙📚
If you like #IcelandicNoir, @hobeckbooks.bsky.social have had an #AwesomeFoursome of interviews with 3 @corylusbooks.bsky.social authors (Jónína Leosdottir, Jón Atli Jónasson & here, Sólveig Pálsdóttir) & their translator (& author himself!), @graskeggur.bsky.social! Give'em a listen & buy books! 💙📚
