Format: OverDrive Kindle Book. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Read. Fiction. Literature. Mystery. Thriller. HTML:<p>"A thoroughly gripping read . . . Lisbeth Salander, Stieg Larsson's fierce pixie of a heroine, is one of the most original characters in a thriller to come along in a while--a gamin, Audrey Hepburn look-alike but with tattoos and piercings, the take-no-prisoners attitude of Lara Croft and the cool, unsentimental intellect of Mr. Spock . . . Owes less to the <i>Silence of the Lambs</i> horror genre than to something by John le Carré."</p>. HTML:Michiko Kakutani, <i>New York Times</i>. "The literary equivalent of a caffeine rush . . . Larsson was one of those rare writers who could keep you up until 3 a.m. and then make you want to rush home the next night to do it again . . . Larsson is something like John Grisham [but] Larsson held an extra ace: the creation of Salander.". HTML:<i>Newsweek</i>. "It's over! And I feel the same sense of pleasure and loss that I did when I watched the finale of 'The Sopranos' and the last episodes of 'Battlestar Galactica' . . . Salander is, I promise, someone you will never forget . . . Anyone who enjoys grounding their imaginations in hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of exciting pages about the way we live now ought to take advantage of this trilogy.". HTML:Alan Cheuse, <i>Chicago Tribune</i>. "Larsson has produced a coup de foudre, a novel that is complex, satisfying, clever, moral . . . This is a grown-up novel for grown-up readers, who want something more than a quick fix and a car chase. And it's why the Millennium trilogy is rightly a publishing phenomenon all over the world.". HTML:<i>Guardian</i>. "A heart-stopping showdown showcases one of crime fiction's most unforgettable characters--and cements Larsson's rep as one of its most passionate and original voices.". HTML:<i>People</i>. "Confirms Larsson as one of the great talents of contemporary crime fiction.". HTML:<i>Sunday Times</i> (UK.) "Exhilarating . . . Larsson's was an undeniably powerful voice in crime fiction that will be sorely missed.". HTML:<i>Publishers Weekly</i>. "Fast-paced enough to make those Jason Bourne films seem like Regency dramas.". HTML:<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>. "Larsson's vivid characters, the depth of the detail across the three books, the powerfully imaginative plot, and the sheer verve of the writing make the trilogy a masterpiece of its genre.". HTML:<i>The Economist</i>. "There are few characters as formidable as Lisbeth Salander in contemporary fiction of any kind . . . She dominates the stage like Lear . . . She will be sorely missed.". HTML:<i>Booklist</i>. "Larsson's work is original, inventive, shocking, disturbing, and challenging . . . His novels have brought a much needed freshness into the world of crime fiction.". HTML:<i>Times</i> (UK.) "Fans will not be disappointed: this is another roller-coaster ride that keeps you reading far too late into the night.". HTML:<i>Evening Standard</i>. HTML:<p><b>Coming Soon: The New Book in the Millennium Series!</b><br /> <br /> In the third volume of the Millennium series, Lisbeth Salander lies in critical condition in a Swedish hospital, a bullet in her head.<br /> <br /> But she's fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she'll stand trial for three murders. With the help of Mikael Blomkvist, she'll need to identify those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. And, on her own, she'll seek revenge--against the man who tried to killer her and against the corrupt government institutions that nearly destroyed her life.</p><br /> <br /> <i>From the Trade Paperback edition.</i>.
