Finally, the third book in the Millenium Trilogy from Sweden’s Steig Larsson. Larsson wrote the three edge-of-your-seat crime novels before dying unexpectedly of a heart attack in 2004, so he didn’t live to see the truly international publishing phenomenon that his books have become.
The first two have been bestsellers throughout 2008 and 2009 for Dymocks, and volume three is being published in English for the first time on October 1st, 2009.
It completes the gripping tale of Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist, whose lives have intersected with violence and corruption and will never be the same again. Larsson has created not only a thrilling crime mystery, but a cast of extraordinary characters that will find their way into your head. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself thinking about them long after you’ve finished reading.
If you haven’t read the trilogy, start with the first book, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. For purchase information, see the Dymocks Website.
