"A hero for the Millenium"
I am a longtime Audible customer with hundreds of listens and this series engaged me on every level.First and formost it is a page turner a great thriller. The depth that makes it great is Salandar's heroic journey which is the stuff of dreams the glory of retribution - especailly, for anyone who has suffered abuse-- physical, psychological violations at the hands of those entrusted to care for us. The series explores the pervasive institutional abuse of socety that can at times exact the most terrible devastation . Without one word that preaches we see through Larson's tightly woven mystery the world that hides in plain sight. The monsterous failing and insensitive bureacratic systems that can be criminal- inflicting pain and at times life long suffering to those it is asked to protect. Lisbeth is a phoenix, a revelation. The most daunting aspect of this duly praised series is the sad reality that the author did not live long enough to reap the rewards of this stunning effort. I hope that there is more of Larson's work in a computer somewhere, so that I can spend more time in Larson's light and with his flesh and blood super hero.
