3.51 AVERAGE


Even though this was not written by the original author I thought it fit the series beautifully. Loved delving back into this world.

The story itself was good but the climax scene . . .she drives through a window with a motorcycle. . .twice?

Serait-ce (enfin) le dernier de la série ? Le tome 5 laissait bien sur présager une suite, mais ce dernier volume m'a semblé bien poussif.
Encore une double histoire, un complot politique basé sur le chantage, et l'évolution des tourments de Lisbeth Salander. Et pourtant, on sent le livre plus calibré pour une adaptation cinématographique que pour être un vrai roman.
Les tourments psychologiques sont effleurés, voire balayés, et les personnages changent d'avis en un battement de cil.
Enfin bref, encore une fois, je me suis laissée prendre au jeu du suspense du roman, et j'ai voulu connaitre la fin (car il semble bien qu'il s'agisse d'une fin), mais on ne parle pas ici d'un grand ouvrage...

im actually so upset i thought this was the 5th book BUT ALSO THATS HOW IT ENDS????? no??

better than his other attempts at this series. much more focused and mysterious, though the story had little to do with salander and blomkvist . wrapped up way too quickly but still a good time
adventurous dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Certainly a much better book than the abysmal 5th in the series but still not quite at the heights of the original trilogy.

Enjoy the series.
not as fast-paced as previous books

I’ve enjoyed all of the Millenium series, even despite the change in author. I find it very easy to slip back into Salendar’s world. Another great plot and I hope there’s more to come.

It was enjoyable but not as good as the previous ones. I felt the two story lines were running concurrently, but it felt quiet forced how they eventually joined up together. Normally it feels more natural. This time I felt like it was rushed and messy.
