Ever since Stieg Larsson shone a light on the brilliance of Swedish crime writing with his critically acclaimed and internationally bestselling novel, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, readers around the world have devoured fiction by some of the greatest masters of the genre. In this landmark publication, Sweden’s most distinguished crime writers, including Stieg Larsson himself, have contributed stories to an anthology that promises to sate the desire to read about the dark side of Sweden.

With an introduction by Swedish crime authority John-Henri Holmberg that traces the evolution of the genre from the late nineteenth century to the present-day, this volume includes a never-before-translated story from Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, the husband-and-wife team that brought Swedish crime to a worldwide audience for the first time in the 1960s and 70s; a brilliantly orchestrated piece in which Henning Mankell’s Kurt Wallander meets Håkan Nesser’s Van Veeteren; and stories from writers who will define the next wave of Swedish crime fiction.

Containing seventeen stories never before published in English, A Darker Shade of Sweden delves into the deepest shadows of this captivating place and shows why Swedish crime has kept readers enthralled for decades.

5つ星のうち5.0 Best book of the year

This a collection from different writers so the styles and formats vary. It is an excellent collection though, lots of great writers and new stories. There is also a lot of history about the authors and the formation of the crime/thriller genre in Sweden. Must have for any fan of Scandinavian crime fiction.

Fantastic collection of short stories - great as an introduction to Scandi Noir, also useful as a pointer to some new writers for those familiar with the genre.

I have not yet read all the short stories, however so far I am finding them very good. I enjoy the short story as I get time to read the whole thing in one sitting! the Swedish names can be a bit tricky however no one knows if my pronounciation is correct so it doesn't matter!

5つ星のうち4.0 Excellent stories!

All the stories in this anthology were excellent, in a wide range of styles and moods. The tales ranges from creepy, horrifying, and darkly humorous- sometimes several of these at once!

I very much recommend this for the stories themselves.

Unfortunately, the background information supplied by the editors was excessively long, and frequently repetitious. The introduction to the book as a whole is a detailed but condensed history of Swedish crime fiction and authors; it is hard to read, since it id pretty much and info-dump. Similarly both the introduction to and the end-notes of each story cover ground from the introduction, and usually repeat those same facts in both places. Lots of cut-and-paste! and extremely long and tedious to read.

I suggest skipping all the editorial notes, and just enjoy the stories.

5つ星のうち4.0 Just when you thought you knew all about Swedish Noir.

An anthology of Swedish writers that brings you gems from the established greats and wellknown translated authors but also shows less familiar and interesting ones who would have a great deal to offer if their work was widely available in English.
I really enjoyed Åsa Larsson's "The Mail Run" and Johan Theorin's "Revenge of the Virgin". But the quality of this book is the background information on the writers and their work. So the biography and short stories from Veronica von Schenck and Katarina Wennstam have piqued my interest and whet my appetite for more - please.
Just when you thought you knew all about Swedish Noir.
