It was hard to get in to, but finally parts came together. Very risque.
Absolutely the best book I have read in a very long time. There's information, action, and the best female character that I think has ever been written. Strange does not always mean inferior or unintelligent. Lisbeth Salander is amazing. Halfway through this book I had to order the next 2 in the trilogy. Only 2 were here in the club, the last one I went and bought on ebay. Each book takes up within days or weeks of the last one. The only sad note is that the author died shortly after turning in these three manuscripts. I would have gladly read anything else he wrote for a long time to come. Highly recommend, but a warning they are very large books in terms of pages, that's a plus for me but maybe not for everyone. You will also notice that some of the spellings of words are the European form and there's lots of long and strange city and street names, it is Sweden after all. But that did not affect my pleasure. It's nice not to be done with a book in 2 days although you will want to be.
it definitely starts out slow, but i fell so in love that i read the first two books in four days. i was on vacation and couldn't put it down, i had to run out and buy the girl who plays with fire. now i'm on a hunt for the hornets nest.. so so sad that Steig passed away (in 2004) and there will not be any future books from him. these are the rare books that will be staying at my home and not being listed on here, so i can re-read them over and over again..
