The Girl Who Lived Twice

A Lisbeth Salander Novel

De: David Lagercrantz, George Goulding - translator

Narrado por: Simon Vance

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series continues: Lisbeth Salander must face the most important battle of her life, and will finally put her past to rest in this thriller that will “leave Salander’s legion of followers clamoring for more” (The Wall Street Journal). • Also known as the Millennium series

Mikael Blomkvist is trying to reach Lisbeth Salander—the fierce, unstoppable girl with the dragon tattoo. He needs her help unraveling the identity of a man who died with Blomkvist's phone number in his pocket—a man who does not exist in any official records and whose garbled last words hinted at knowledge that would be dangerous to important people. But Lisbeth has disappeared. She's sold her apartment in Stockholm. She's gone dark. She's told no one where she is. And no one is aware that at long last she's got her primal enemy, her twin sister, Camilla, squarely in her sights.

Look for the latest book in the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, The Girl in the Eagle's Talons, coming soon!

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A murder mystery inside an espionage conspiracy wrapped in an action thriller—a unique concoction that should leave Salander’s legion of followers clamoring for more.” —The Wall Street Journal

"A quest for revenge and atonement that plumbs the depths of Russian troll factories and scales the heights of Mount Everest." —TIME

"Salander and Blomkvist are just as compelling as ever." —The New York Times

"If this turns out to be, as Lagercrantz has suggested, the final installment in the series, it's going out on a resounding tonic chord ... Salander is what she’s always been: a force to be reckoned with, and one of the most remarkable series leads in the history of crime fiction." —Booklist, starred review

"Not only do the matter-of-fact style and intricate plotting and sexy, chilling atmosphere feel very true to the original novels, but Lagercrantz transcends the source material." —Esquire

"If Lagercrantz strays into Smilla's Sense of Snow levels of unlikelihood in weaving all these threads, he writes economically, and though he works ground he's covered in his two earlier contributions to the series, disbelief suitably suspended, it all makes for good bloody fun. Formulaic, but it's a formula that still works, as Salander and assorted bad guys spread righteous mayhem wherever they go." —Kirkus Reviews

“[An] exciting third addition to Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series ... A tantalizing ending hints at important changes for Blomkvist and Lisbeth ahead. Series fans will be pleased with the thoughtful way Lagercrantz develops the character of their beloved action heroine in this worthy outing.” —Publishers Weekly

"Rest easy, Lisbeth Salander fans—our punk hacker heroine is in good hands." —USA Today

The best of the Lagercrantz Millennium books

I didn't enjoyed either of the other 2 of David Lagercrantz's entries of the Lisbeth Salender story. But, I couldn't dismiss them either. With "The Girl who Lived Twice", I think Lagercrantz finally created a book that I wasn't comparing to the masterful Stieg Larsson the entire time. It's not as good as "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", but neither was "The Girl that Played with Fire" or "The Girl that Kicked the Hornet's Nest" - though those 2 were almost as good!

End of the story?

Not sure if this will continue. I miss the original author’s style. David L is piecing together bits and pieces okay but it is not the same. There are also numerous errors. Overall it is entertaining, just a bit rough in places.

A bit disappointed

There were moments that were excellent, however, it did not capture my attention and imagination as well as did Lagercrantz's earlier efforts. I hope he steps up his game.

Sounds Like The End Of The Series—I Hope Not

I got hooked on The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo when the first 3 books were published. They were riveting, and the movies made in Sweden of the first three books were nothing but amazing. Since Larsson’s untimely death, David Lagercrantz has filled in on the last 3 books with creditable skill. This book did not have the depth or suspense of the earlier books. It seemed to be struggling to have a theme. There was the Sherpa found dead on the street. How does he fit in? There is the continuing feud between Lisbeth and Camilla but there isn’t the same feelings of earlier books. Perhaps that is just because it has all been said. The last text messages between Lisbeth and Mickheil seem to be saying it is time to move on. So maybe this is the last book. I hope not. Simon Vance is a terrific narrator and he portrays the voices with much skill.

Satisfying

There was always a slight delay in the sound at the start of a new “chapter” a bit annoying.
But I enjoyed the story and was satisfied with the way the series ended

Great conclusion

I thoroughly enjoy this whole series and got very attached to the characters. This tied up all the lose ends. Highly recommend if you’ve followed the story line.

Good

All good but not like the first. Good read/listen. Elisabeth seems supernatural at time.

Same old same old is getting old

Nothing much different with the story line and the absence of plot is covered over with a frantic tone that grates on the nerves. I enjoyed the proceeding novels very much and I enjoyed this one too...but not as much.

Don't waste your time or money

This is a poorly constructed story, which features too many characters. Additionally, both Salander and Blomkvist have small roles that make them almost peripheral to the book's story line.

As always, Simon Vance's narration is fantastic, but it can't save an otherwise bad book.

enjoy enjoy

I found the story interesting. I did wish there was more of the character lisbeth. all on all. I'm definitely gonna be continuing to the next book.
