You don't have to read German ...

... to enjoy Krimi-Couch (denn Lesen ist spannender), an attractive and wide-ranging German crime-fiction Web site. The Krimis nach Regionen link, for example, offers comprehensive lists of crime fiction by region. Its categories include crime fiction from the Benelux countries, the Middle East, and Africa, for instance; I've already found an author or two whose work I'll look for.

The subject of translations and their availability in the English-speaking world comes up on crime-fiction blogs from time to time. It's interesting to see which translated authors German readers get to read.
