Item description from seller

The first G.B. editions and first U.S. edition of five novels by the award-winning Norwegian crime writer Jo Nesbø, with the original unclipped dust wrappers. Five crime novels by the multiple-award winning Norwegian author Jo Nesbø. These are: The Snowman (the first G.B. edition, fourth printing, published in 2010 by Harvill Secker, trans. by Don Bartlett), The Leopard (the first G.B. edition, second printing, published in 2010 by Harvill Secker, trans. by Don Bartlett), The Devil's Star (the first U.S. edition, second printing, published in 2010 by HarperCollins, trans. by Don Bartlett), Phantom (The first G.B. edition, fourth printing published in 2012 by Harvill and Secker, trans. by Don Bartlett), and, The Son (The first G.B. edition, first impression, published in 2014, by Harvill Secker, trans. by Charlotte Barslund).Each with the original unclipped dust wrapper.With a map of Oslo forming the front and rear pastedowns of 'The Son', and a map of Oslo city centre after the printing information to the front of 'The Snowman', 'Phantom', 'The Leopard', and 'The Devil's Star'.Jo Nesbø is one of most important figures writing in the genre of Scandinavian crime fiction, having sold over fifty-million copies of his novels worldwide by 2021 and been translated into over fifty different languages. His work is layered and violent, often following the gripping entanglements of an obsessive and morally complex detective character named Harry Hole. In the original cloth bindings in the original unclipped dust wrappers. Externally generally smart, with shelf wear to the extremities, and the occasional closed tear to the fly leaves. The odd handling mark to the wraps. One minor tidemark causing marginal discolouration to the rear at the head of the spine of 'The Son'. Internally, all firmly bound with lovely bright, clean pages. Slight toning to 'The Devil's', 'The Snowman', and 'The Son', as well as some very light, minor tidemarks to the text block's bottom edge between pp. 302-327 of 'The Leopard'. The odd mark to the fore edges. Near Fine.…
