   No current Talk conversations about this book.   Mark_Feltskog | Dec 23, 2023 |  Great read. (  ) cjyap1 | Aug 29, 2023 |  ) Jonathan5 | Feb 20, 2023 |  ) judithrs | Nov 14, 2022 | The story was interesting with its revelations of Lisbeth's early days; I wonder if the author made all this up, or if the original author, Stieg Larsson, left notes about it. I guess it really doesn't matter, since it's all fiction anyway. As a fan of the series, I enjoyed the book although it was somewhat confusing at times because of a lot of time shifts. Sometimes, I wasn't sure in what time period things were happening. But, I could usually guess, and generally I figured out what was going on. ( ) MartyFried | Oct 9, 2022 |
 The reader is repeatedly told that Salander and Blomkvist are driven by a desire for justice, but because we spend so little time in close-up with the book’s heroine, it is not convincing. There is a sluggishness to the plotting and much of the tension relies on orchestrated interruptions and delays, which irritate. Lagercrantz has all the elements of the Millennium series at his disposal, but the adrenaline is missing: it feels as if one has gone to a restaurant, ordered a rare steak and been served soggy fish fingers instead.
