even better than the first in this trilogy!

lisbeth and blomqvist have major roles in this book. deeper glances into lisbeth's life are revealed.
once again, the reader is left hanging at the end, eagerly hungering for the final book of the trilogy!
this book is mesmerizing, addictive; difficult to lay the book down.
looking forward to the last of the trilogy, to be tentatively released in early 2010.

larsson had an original style of writing. wish he were around for more. i am so thankful to have had the opportunity to read his books.

Mesmerizing. Well-written. Had difficulty putting the book down! Highly recommended!
There are many interesting characters in the book, their lives all intertwined. The ending left me hanging, waiting to find out what happens next....

Just ordered the second book in the series.
