Jo Nesbo Books in Order
Jon "Jo" Nesbø is a Norwegian novelist and musician. His books had sold over 50 million copies worldwide by 2021, making him the most successful Norwegian author to date. He first came to prominence as the singer, rhythm guitarist and principal songwriter of country-pop band Di Derre, when their second album became a big hit in Norway, almost selling enough to make double platinum. The album was initially titled Kvinner & Klær, but had to be renamed and re-released as Jenter & Sånt after the eponymous Norwegian women's fashion magazine filed a complaint.
