I have been a big fan of the Millennium series from the start.  It can be tough when a new author continues a story where previous authors have left off, especially when the original trilogy was executed so well, but I thought this was a decent attempt.  I enjoyed the plot and introduction of Lisbeth's niece, but I had wished that there had been more back and forth between Lisbeth and Blomkvist as seen in previous books.  I think this book was set up to continue into a third trilogy and beyond so I am interested to see where that may go.
