El Reino / The Kingdom
TRAS CONQUISTAR A 50 MILLONES DE LECTORES, REGRESA EL REY DE LA NOVELA NEGRA CON UN THRILLER LITERARIO MONUMENTALUNO DE LOS 18 MEJORES LIBROS DE MISTERIO POR ESQUIRE'Una historia absorbente llena de sorpresas y matices. Nesbø es el maestro del thriller moderno.'Santiago Díaz'Sin duda, la mejor novela de Jo Nesbø.'Juan Gómez-JuradoEn lo alto de una montaña, en los páramos de Noruega, hay un viejo caserón habitado por un hombre solitario. Se llama Roy, es experto en pájaros, lleva la gasolinera del pueblo y en cada casa corre un rumor sobre él. Su vida gris se reabre con la vuelta de Carl, su hermano pequeño. No se ven desde que se fue a estudiar a Estados Unidos hace quince años, tras la muerte trágica de sus padres en un accidente de coche.El hijo pródigo trae consigo a su flamante esposa, Shannon, una enigmática arquitecta: han ideado un plan para construir un gran hotel en los antiguos terrenos familiares y podrían hacerse ricos, no solo ellos sino además los vecinos de la zona.Sin embargo, pronto llegan también los malos presagios. Porque es difícil reinventarse en una comunidad pequeña donde todos se conocen, y a los habitantes del lugar les costará olvidar ciertos episodios del pasado. Sobre todo, al agente Olsen, hijo del antiguo alguacil, que desapareció tiempo atrás en extrañas circunstancias.El reino es un thriller gigantesco, adictivo y complejo, que retrata como ningún libro de Nesbø las pasiones humanas, y que ha sido considerado inmediatamente por la crítica una obra maestra.Los lectores han dicho...'Con El reino, Nesbø amplía aún más sus dominios. Si nunca lo has leído, empieza por aquí: pura adrenalina literaria.'Domingo Villar'Jo Nesbø convierte al lector en un súbdito que le seguirá apasionadamente hasta el final de la historia.'Alicia Giménez Bartlett'Este libro es especial en todos los sentidos.'Stephen King'Sin duda, la mejor novela de Jo Nesbø. Es la obra de un escritor maduro, de un escritor que ha calado mucho en las emociones humanas. Hay en ella una especie de luminosidad oscura muy distinta a todo lo que había hecho hasta ahora. El reino es un libro que todo el mundo debería de leer y que va a gustar mucho, mucho, mucho a los fans de Nesbø y a los que no lo son todavía.'Juan Gómez-Jurado'Jo Nesbø se las sabe todas: el autor noruego vuelve a demostrar que controla cada resorte del thriller.'Juan Carlos Galindo, El País'El rey de la novela negra nórdica abandona las convenciones del género en este thriller ambientado en un pueblo de montaña y protagonizado por dos hermanos unidos por una compleja lealtad, un pasado trágico y secretos en el armario. [...] Su mejor libro.'Fernando Díaz de Quijano, El Cultural'Carl y Roy Opgard son bastante más que un mero placebo: droga de la máxima pureza para los aficionados al género negro.'Ismael Marinero, El Mundo'Una brutal historia de emociones y sentimientos, tan inquietante como desasosegante. [...] Una de las novelas más logradas del autor noruego.'Miguel Ángel Oeste, El Cultural'Nesbø es inimitable: [...] un reino custodiado por dos hermanos al que es fácil entrar, pero del que el lector no podrá salir.'Pilar Manzanares, Esquire'Vuelve a confirmarse quién es el rey del thriller.'Financial Times'Una tenebrosa delicia, comparable a las novelas de Ripley.'The Times'Retorcida, violenta, apasionante y muy perturbadora.'Buzzfeed'Nesbø demuestra ser un excelente narrador. Sabe presentar un mundo sombrío con un poderío implacable.'New York Journal of Books'Con una pizca de Lev Tolstoi y otra de Agatha Christie, El reino explora el mal que puede anidar en una familia. De nuevo, Nesbø ha entregado un éxito incontestable.'La Repubblica
