Scandinavian Writers: KO Dahl's "The Last Fix" - 10/7/2010 @ Drew's

Our next selection in the topic of "Scandinavian Authors" is KO Dahl's "The Last Fix." Dahl is one of Norway's better known crime novelists. It's been a long time since we had a whodunit.

Linda will be able to enjoy it on her Kindle; since I'd already bought the book before I got mine, I'm going to read the hardback. Happily, my Kindle 3 #-G  arrived the evening we discussed "The Hunger" at my house.

In the future, we may all have digital books, but I bet it will be decades until all the books we like are available that way. Since I bought my Kindle, I've looked for a lot of books in Kindle format, and have had very little success. Even "Gone With the Wind" isn't available. It's posted on Amazon's website, but has a "pricing information unavailbale" so I couldn't buy it. Happily, a lot of technical software books are available, so I'll load up as my budget permits!
