The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest

The third unputdownable novel in the Dragon Tattoo series - 100 million copies sold worldwide

***********************
The third book in the Millennium series featuring Lisbeth Salander - the global publishing phenomenon

Salander is plotting her revenge - against the man who tried to kill her, and against the government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. But it is not going to be a straightforward campaign. After taking a bullet to the head, Salander is under close supervision in Intensive Care, and is set to face trial for three murders and one attempted murder on her eventual release.

With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his researchers at Millennium magazine, Salander must not only prove her innocence, but identify and denounce the corrupt politicians that have allowed the vulnerable to become victims of abuse and violence. Once a victim herself, Salander is now ready to fight back.

25 fabulous hours

It is rare that a series gets stronger as it goes along, but Hornets' Nest is a terrific finale. When I got to the last part of the book, I sat for five hours straight so that I could find out what happened. It is a great feminist novel, though many readers might not notice...

A great conclusion to a thrilling trilogy

Another really good thriller from the late Stieg Larsson. What a pity that he's lost to us! This one is the third in the wonderful Millenium trilogy, and neatly ties up most of the loose ends. It's well-written, a mix of fast and slow pace, intelligent and tense ... what more could one want? Well, there is something more ... Larsson's left leanings tend to influence this trilogy too strongly, in that pretty much every villain is a rabid capitalist, while every liberal or leftist is totally squeaky clean. Life is never that simple, and some shades of gray would have elevated the writing. But, in the end, I'm not complaining - all in all you did a great job Stieg! The narration by Saul Reichlin is excellent.

I feel sorry for my friends "reading" these books. the Swedish names and places are difficult. Listening to Saul read these books to me was like listening to beautiful music. His wonderful English and beautiful Swedish pronunciation made the books more interesting.
The story however was FANTASTIC!!! I sat and listened to the last 4 hrs twice in a row. It is such a shame to think it will be the end. It would have been fun looking forward to the next adventure of Blomqvist and Salander.

A truly great read

What a fabulous book. The best book of the trilogy. I couldn't wait to find out what happened but was very sad when it was finished. How sad that a brilliant author has been lost to this world.

spell-binding!
