About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

If no one ever died, what would happen then?

For several days, a bright new star in the sky above Norway has blazed over the restless lives of those below. Tove, an artist, is consumed by intense creativity as she spirals towards psychosis. Line falls in love with a musician named Valdemar and is lured to a secret death metal gig in a remote forest. Geir, a policeman, is investigating a ritual murder but chances upon something more horrifying even than the bodies in the trees – the last bodies he sees, because, as undertaker Syvert is the first to realise, people have stopped dying since the star appeared.

What is haunting the world – and why?

With The Third Realm, Karl Ove Knausgaard expands the spellbinding universe of The Morning Star and The Wolves of Eternity, as a cast of new and familiar characters begins to tell the story in the round. With each thrilling page, the possibility emerges that a malign force is at large, and that perhaps no one is beyond its reach.

honestly something is off with this one. i don't know lack of inspiration or was it supposed to be longer, anyways there's literally nothing of consistance there, and it all starts to plays out very cliche. hope he'll come back, out maybe he's already gone....

that's a low for Karl.

some really captivating chapters and readers, but personally listening whilst walking my dog I did loose track of what was happening at times and how the stories all link together.

loved all the readers
