Again, I love this whole series. You know its good when your first thought after finishing is “Darn, too bad the author past away and there won't be anymore books from him nor anymor.e with these characters
Stieg Larsson is an amazing juggler, so many characters and sub-plots, and yet he keeps them all in the air and the reader enthralled. Great read!
Melanjutkan cerita buku sblmnya, Salander dibawa ke rmh sakit, gitu juga Zalachenco. Pada akhirnya Salander harus menceritakan versi kebenarannya sendiri kepada publik, hal yg paling dia takutkan. Dia mengambil keputusan itu atas desakan Mikael juga.
(SPOILERS for the second book in the series, [b:The Girl Who Played with Fire 5060378 The Girl Who Played with Fire (Millennium, #2) Stieg Larsson http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1293976153s/5060378.jpg 6976108])This book picks up right where the second one left off. Lisbeth Salander is in critical condition with a couple of gunshot wounds. There is chaos everywhere with people being investigated and arrested for various crimes. Scandal abounds.Parts of this book were intriguing and compelling and parts were dry and boring. I won't lie: there were bits about the Swedish government that I skimmed over. They were not essential to my understanding of the plot and they were extremely dull. On the other hand, the parts about Salander and her fight for revenge made for very interesting reading. I will miss the character of Salander though I can't say I will miss much else from this series.Additionally, this book has some serious editing issues.
Seems like a whole lot of work to get to the 100 page finale of wonderful courtroom drama writing. And the ending doesn't feel appropriate to the trilogy. Perhaps Larsson intended to write another Millennium epic (concerning Lisbeth's estranged sister?) but this allusion was redacted once he passed away. The style and content of the final chapter just don't fit with that of the other 1600 or some pages of his work.
