"This is the first time I have read anything by Steig Larsson and I enjoyed this book very much. It kept my interest throughout. I will read his other books. I recommend it."
"The book was good but a bit long. There are three stories in one however there is plenty of grist that could have been left out to shorten the story. There were a few suprises and the book other then the length was good. I am now reading another of this writers books, The girl who played with fire. If he continues this long style this may be my last read of his work."
"I'll be honest up front: This is not your typical American mystery. But if your mind is open enough for something a bit different, you will find this book very exciting and tough to put down. Larsson wrote three novels (with the same characters), submitted them, and then passed away. That is so sad, because he was one of the world's best story tellers. My recommendation is that you read this one and the other two also. I've read two, and am very impatiently waiting for the third."
