Neither Lisbeth nor Camille will give up until one of them is lying dead.
The girl with the dragon tattoo is finally ready to confront her arch-nemesis, the only woman who is evidently and in may ways her ultimate match. Salanda will not wait for herself to be hunted. When she launches her strike against her it will be a double blow, vengeance for the recent atrocities and the settling of lifelong scores which have been brewing for many years.
For many months now Salander has been closing in on her target and she has moved from Stockholm, changed her newly styled her and removed all of her trademark piercings. She could pass for any one of the many businesswoman who make their way around the city however not all business woman have a Beretta Cheetah beneath their suit jacket. They also do not process the lethal power of being the infamous hacker who carries scars and tattoos to help remind her of the things which she has survived and things that would have broken many others.
In this new episode of the acclaimed internationally continuation of the Larsson's Dragon tattoo series which is a wholly thrilling ride that scales the heights of Everest and plunges to the depths of the Russian troll factories. At the start of the story it begins with the discovery of Blomkvists number at the Millennuim magazine in the pocket of an unidentified homeless man who has died with the name of a government minister on his lips. Blomkvist, at an extreme personal risk, tracks down his old friend and will protect her as far as he can and finds that he is powerless to crush her enemies on his own. For Lisbeth Salander, the personal is always seen as the political and even more deadly.
I have enjoyed this episode of the series, i have found that this could have been a standalone novel as this pulls on all of the major characters histories and gives us more insight into them. I have found that the novel has helped fortify my love of Lisbeth and forge it in my mind that she is my favourite character of the whole series closely followed by the loner Blomkvist. I have found that in this novel the family aspect of the two major characters built on, for example Blomkvist has a fatherly like link to her and this helps to me to see why they are ultimately link forever no matter what the story flings at them. I love the character development in this novel and it touches on the element of sexuality and how fleeting this can be and that it is important not to judge a book by its cover. When reading some of the paragraphs writing about Lisbeth, it make me feel like th author is assassinating her character and does not want her to succeed and this is just why she does. I have found the 400+ pages of the novel of fast paced and engaging writing which had me gripped from page on through to page 424. I would recommend this book to any one who loves the original trilogy.
