Critics Review

Lars Mytting writes with an insight, empathy and integrity few others can match – Jo NesbøLars Mytting has written “The Hekne Tapestry” at the height of his powers. He may have told the story he always dreamt of telling. And what a story that is! This novel is in a class of its own, for both Mytting’s standards and those of all books published this year” – Preben Jordal * Aftenposten *Mytting writes about people of flesh and blood; he combines the language, the psychology and the social in one artistic unit […] And above all; he mesmerizes the reader with his huge register of feelings. I’m already looking forward to book three. – Stein Roll * Adresseavisen ****** *

The Reindeer Hunters … hints at the magnetic pull of superstitions that thread beneath the conscious mind like“veins of silver and slag” . It also maps an age of rapid change… [A] craftily woven tale steeped in rich local dyes

– Boyd Tonkin * Financial Times *Mytting weaves a compelling saga of love, both lost and found, and of a country in the midst of change. – Nick Rennison * Sunday Times *
