NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • Lisbeth Salander returns in a trailblazing continuation of the bestselling Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series • Also known as the Millennium series

“Lisbeth Salander is back—and maybe better than ever. Karin Smirnoff’s take is both respectful of the past and ready for the future—altogether remarkable.” —Lee Child, author of No Plan B

“An absolutely brilliant continuation of the series: exciting plot, plenty of action, and a sensitive portrayal of complicated relationships—where the new character Svala is one of the highlights.” —Femina

Change is coming to Sweden’s far north: its untapped natural resources are sparking a gold rush, with the criminal underworld leading the charge. But it’s not the prospect of riches that brings Lisbeth Salander to the small town of Gasskas. She has been named guardian to her niece Svala, whose mother has disappeared. Two things soon become clear: Svala is a remarkably gifted teenager—and she’s being watched. Mikael Blomkvist is also heading north. He has seen better days. Millennium magazine is in its final print issue, and relations with his daughter are strained. Worse still, there are troubling rumors surrounding the man she’s about to marry. When the truth behind the whispers explodes into violence, Salander emerges as Blomkvist’s last hope.

A pulse-pounding thriller, The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons sees Salander and Blomkvist navigating a world of conspiracy and betrayal, old enemies and new friends, ice-bound wilderness and the global corporations that threaten to tear it apart.

could have been better

I have been a big fan of the Lizbeth Salendar books and have enjoyed listening to them repeatedly. Like other readers I was disappointed. The story development was disjointed and hard to follow. The characters were not fully developed or as vivid as in the Stieg Larson books. The flashbacks also were confusing. Would be willing to give this writer another try. I think I will listen to it again. It might come together a bit more.

Almost

But not quite as good as the previous books. I liked the story but it needed more …something, and a better ending.

Choppy

This last book is not quite as good as the rest of the series. This one jumps around with too big a jump in narrative.

Great book and book series

I really like that Elisabeth is growing in this book you can see how she was brooding her horizons.

More confusing but good

Just need to listen more closely that the other books. Many characters and some time jumping.
