The Lion Has Many Ears (2010)

The Lion has Many Ears is a second novel in a crime series using the Icelandic Sagas as a model. This time the author plays with themes from Laxdaela Saga and recreates it in a modern context. This novel is a follow up of Cold Blood, nominated for the Icelandic Literature Prize in 2007, resetting scenes from Niall’s Saga in a contemporary setting. In these stories the traditional crime fiction format is beautifully interlaced with the Icelandic traditional Saga and Icelandic fate in the past and present. • Nominated for the Icelandic Literary Prize 2010
