Description

The stunning third and final novel in Stieg Larsson’s internationally best-selling trilogy

Lisbeth Salander—the heart of Larsson’s two previous novels—lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She’s fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she’ll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of her friend, journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. And, on her own, she will plot revenge—against the man who tried to kill her, and the corrupt government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life.

Once upon a time, she was a victim. Now Salander is fighting back.

THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET'S NEST Sep 05, 2010
Having read the first two books of this trilogy I thought perhaps this last
one would be anticlimactic. Not so. It was as riveting as the others. The characters, especially Lisbeth Salander, are more fully developed and all is tied together to explain who she really is. In the end I felt like I lost a friend...no more Stieg Larson books.

Good book series Sep 05, 2010
the third book in a trilogy, for maximum reading pleasure, you really should read the first 2 before this one.

Good Site Sep 05, 2010
This book arrived in a timely fashion and was in excellent condition. The price was very competitive, so I would definitely use this site again.

Excellent Sep 05, 2010
As usual Stieg's last book is so exciting, I can't put it down. Many more new characters
and the mystery deepens. The only mysterys I have ever liked. He was one in a million.

Third book in Millennium Trilogy
4.5/5 stars

Summary: Lisbeth Salander is finally found and will be going on trial shortly. Mikael Blomkvist, a journalist and her loyal friend, is out to clear her name and uncover a scandal that will rock Sweden's government. These are the two main threads of Larsson's massive tome, the conclusion to the Millennium trilogy.

Thoughts: I was super excited to get this because I thought I would have to wait until it was in paperback. But once my mom started reading the books, she bought the third one. My sister read it first (very slowly because she wanted to spite me!) and then I got it. Like the previous books, it had a slowish start but picked up toward the end. This time the end is centered around Lisbeth's trial, where she is being examined over multiple counts. I won't go too much in detail because I want you to read it for yourself.

There is also a good short summary of what the books are about: women who are abused and the men who enable that. I was frequently brought up short by the awful things done by men toward women, specifically because the abusers were men and the victims were women and how the system which should have protected them looked the other way or actively worked to cover it up.

I actually thought this book had a lot less of the content I found distasteful in the first two books: the drinking, swearing, and sexual content all stood out much less.

Overall: A good conclusion to the Millennium trilogy.

Cover: I do like the silver a lot but the hornets freak me out.
