Advantages: Finished the trilogy nicely, all lose ends tied up.

Disadvantages: Lacks some of the detail with regards to relationships that made the first 2 so good

This is the third book in stig laarsons trilogy and I made sure it was on the top of my christmas list. You need to have read the first 2 books ( no mean feat as they are 500 pages each!) to even have a clue as to what is going on.

Again the book follows Lisebeth Salander as the main character. I have to say that I enjoyed this book because it provided answers and tied up lose ends but I didn't think it was as good as the first 2. The references to sweedish towns and organisational structures (fictional or otherwise) made is difficult to follow the plot in some cases. The relationships between the main characters Lisbeth, Michael and Erika weren't as well developed in this and for this reason the book felt a bit rushed. There is a nice relationship between Lisebeth Salander and her Doctor but this only plays a small part in the book.

Maybe its because I had such high hopes but I did find the book dissapointing - but then if you have read the other two you can't not read this one - you will make your own mind up.

Summary: If you have read the other 2 you will want to read it to get closure!
