The Girl in the Eagle's Talons by Karin Smirnoff

3.0

Lisbeth Salander returns in another Millennium Series book this time by Author Karin Smirnoff. Lisbeth and Mikael are back to tackle corporate greed and government corruption while dealing with old enemies and new friends. I think Stieg Larson is a lot to live up to and I'm not quite sure Smirnoff did that. The plot itself is slightly confusing, told from different POVs. Very slow in the beginning and once it does pick up, it just didn't have the same drama as we are used to in the Dragon Tattoo series. The writing isn't great, but I couldn't tell if that was just because of the english translation. Lisbeth herself, also seemed like a different character. Missing a lot of the grit from the first 3 books.
