Publisher's Summary

Salander is plotting her revenge - against the man who tried to kill her, and against the government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. But it is not going to be a straightforward campaign. After taking a bullet to the head, Salander is under close supervision in Intensive Care, and is set to face trial for three murders and one attempted murder on her eventual release.

With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his researchers at Millennium magazine, Salander must not only prove her innocence, but identify and denounce the corrupt politicians that have allowed the vulnerable to become victims of abuse and violence. Once a victim herself, Salander is now ready to fight back.

Critic Reviews

"With the spiky and sassy Lisbeth Salander - punkish wild child, traumatised survivor of the 'care' system, sexual adventurer and computer hacker of genius - Larsson created the most original heroine to emerge in crime fiction for many years." (The Independent)

"Complex, satisfying, clever, moral...a grown-up novel for grown-up readers...this is why the Millennium Trilogy is rightly a publishing phenomenon all over the world." (Kate Mosse)

Perfect ending to the trilogy.

Loved it. I say this again for the 3rd time. I love the way Stieg Larsson writes. Many people complain it to be too lengthy and unnecessary but I feel this is the best way I can empathize with each charecter so much. Narration is so perfect. Pure joy listening to these three books.
The pre climax episode is memorable one. I wouldn't forget it. Pretty emotional and thrilling reading it has been.

A Fitting End

Despite unexpected demise of Larsson, the book is a fitting end to Salander's story.

Brilliant : didn’t lost the charm for once

I was sceptical on how the last book of trilogy will be ? can the charisma of “the girl with dragon tattoo” be maintained in third book ? and voila its there - its a punch in face kinda… i was sad that this is finished :-( …
need some more fiction of this sort of

wonderful

I liked this book especially compared to the 2 before this. But the building the story in other 2 books resulted in this mind-blowing book with twist and detailed character backgrounds.

Slow start. Worth the wait. Skip ahead

Slow start. Worth the wait. Skip ahead. You won’t miss out much in the first 5/6 chapters
