LISBETH SALANDER - Pierced, tattooed and garbed in extreme punk attire, computer hacker Salander is the touching, vulnerable but mightily determined heroine of the late Swedish author Stieg Larsson’s acclaimed and best-selling MILLENNIUM series. The final book to be published was THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET’S NEST. Not a heroine cut from the usual detective cloth but a truly memorable one.
Sarah Broadhurst's view...
One of the major success stories to recently come out of Sweden. It’s the second part of the Millennium Trilogy which began with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and it is quite exceptional. Sadly the author died just after completing the text and never saw it published, let alone be able to bask in its success. This in hardback was the first ever book in translation to hit the top of the bestseller lists. It’s dark, complex and engrossing. A must read.
Comparison: Hakan Nesser, Henning Mankell, Arnaldur Indridason.
