Lisbeth Salander ... is one of the most original characters in a thriller to come along in a while."-Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Larsson's vivid characters, the depth of detail across three books, the powerfully imaginative plot, and the sheer verve of the writing make the trilogy a masterpiece of the genre."-The Economist "The literary equivalent of a caffeine rush....

The pulse quickens." -The Boston Globe "A wild, careening ride." -The Philadelphia Inquirer "The action is wham-bam from the start.... [with] an eye-popping surprise ending."-St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Fully lives up to the excellence of the previous two and ... brings the saga to a satisfactory conclusion.... A modern masterpiece." -The Washington Post Book World "Satisfying.... [Lisbeth Salander] bursts off the page, a vibrant, forcefully 'real' character."-The Plain Dealer "Enough twists to keep even the most astute reader guessing." -The Denver Post . |
