Gert Nygårdshaug is in my opinion a more sophisticated and challenging writer intellectually. He has a literary high level in his novels, while he also shows the ability to make "impossible" plots that are credible . It is a delight to read these books whether you are interested in ancient history or not.
The good crime authors in this country can be counted on one hand. Gert Nygårdshaug is one of them
