So apparently I’ve become a reviewer for Aschehoug, a pretty big Norwegian publishing house. “How did you manage this splendid feat?”, I hear you ask with a trembling, yet avidly impressed voice. Well, truth be told, I didn’t actually manage it.

They just took a review of mine without asking and posted it on their agency website. The review in question is of the Norwegian science fiction tale, “104” by Christopher F-B Grøndahl, which I posted on the 17th of November, 2007. Now don’t get me wrong: I’m not mad about this or upset or anything like that. In fact, the only feeling I have towards this issue is that I felt like they should have asked me (I would naturally have said yes).

They are linking and naming me, so it’s not like they’re impolite about using my work. It’s actually kinda cool being an undercover book reviewer, though it would be even cooler if someone had told me about it.
