It turns the whole story on its head in several dimensions. Finally got to meet Klas with Tiina at the book fair in Copenhagen a couple of weeks ago, and he's a fascinating guy. I hope publishers will take the hint and buy rights to more of his books. Also available is The Hurricane Party from Canongate, in their Myths series. As Johnny Carson would say, "Weird, wild stuff."
