It's not for nothing that this book holds the title for the best thriller ever! I recently picked up Red Dragon, the first book I've ever read by Thomas Harris - after years of being a Hannibal fan solely through film and TV - and I loved it. It's dark, it's gritty, it's short! -... Continue Reading →
Book Review: Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
Whoa! I don't know what I expected, but it definitely wasn't this. I've been fascinated by Hannibal Lecter since I was a young teen and first saw Silence Of The Lambs sometime in the early 2000s. Since then I've seen every movie, adaption, remake TV series I've ever come across based on the incredible characters... Continue Reading →
Book Review: Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson
I'm almost annoyed that I haven't read this sooner, it's that good! I'm not just talking about this book, but the whole of the Mistborn series in general. Considering that Brandon Samderson has been a name that has been whispered about for a while, it's weird that I didn't grt around to reading him sooner,... Continue Reading →
The Best Writing Advice I Ever Got

It’s Finally Here! – Book Release: Fjordbeist by Trygve Sikveland Røysland
I've waited so long to say this - but my Norwegian Young-Adult Fantasy debut is finally here! Back when I started writing my first novel in 2015, I never imagined I'd be sitting here, 10 years later, releasing my first book in Norwegian. Even though it's my mother tongue, the language I first learned to... Continue Reading →
Book Review: The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson
Another, even better trilogy? I don't remember who got me onto Brandon Sanderson books in the first place, but from the moment I read the first book in the Mistborn series, The Final Empire I was hooked. I followed up with Skyward, got all the four books in his super successful secret kickstarter, and have... Continue Reading →

Book Review: The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson
An incredible end to an amazing series! I have no idea when I first heard of Brandon Sanderson, but I know it started with whisper of this fantastic fantasy author. Probably the same way I began hearing about George R. R. Martin when Game of Throne first aired back in the day, I started hearing... Continue Reading →
