The press on The Story of ABBA:
"This isn't a run-of-the-mill work. […] It's both a musical history and a foundational course in human nature, where you gain in-depth knowledge of ABBA and are inspired to listen attentively to the group's songs." Svenska Dagbladet

"Music journalism [is] often a difficult balancing act between frivolity and mathematics. It's all the more enjoyable when you stumble upon research as educational and accurate as Jan Gradvall's." Expressen
