Reviews for series "Brilliantly written…the characters are superbly drawn and the story grips from first to last - 5 stars - Mail on Sunday ... absorbing and exciting - highly recommended - The Literary Review. 'Intelligent, complex, with a gripping plot and deeply intriguing characters' Philip Pullman, Guardian. 'In her (Salander) Larsson has created a heroine unique to detective fiction. Where else can you find a bisexual female detective with punk-era fashion sense who just happens to be an expert computer hacker?' Independent. “...Conscious of the way crime and other networks transcend national boundaries, it’s a very modern novel. What makes it outstanding is the author’s ability to handle dozens of characters and parallel narratives without ever losing tension. Larsson was a fantastic storyteller.” -Sunday Times “The best thriller I’ve read in ages . . . If you want a book to take on your lifetime trip on the Trans-Siberian railway, The Girl Who Played With Fire is the one.”-Evening Herald “Umberto Eco transposed Sherlock Holmes to a different time and genre and imported learning from history, theology, philology and other disciplines. Larsson’s [books are] likewise an enjoyable and instructive compendium of pop-culture references and academic knowledge . . . Salander is recognisably a Lara Croft for grown-ups-a female Terminator . . . [She is] the huge pleasure of these books, a fascinating creation with a complete and complex psychology.”-Guardian The thriller of the decade - Evene.fr. 'Brilliantly written and totally gripping' Minette Walters.  "The ballyhoo is fully justified…At over 500 pages this hardly sagged…The novel scores on every front - character, story, atmosphere" - The Times "A publishing sensation, an accomplished crime writer who seemingly came from nowhere…a memorable debut and deserves most of the hype with which it is being published in this country… Crime fiction has seldom needed to salute and mourn such a stellar talent as Larsson's in the same breath" - Sunday Times “The essential first step to appreciating Stieg Larsson is to rid yourself of any fixed image you have of Swedish crime fiction. If Mankell is Swedish gloomy, Larsson is Swedish noir. Very . . . Lisbeth is a heroine like no other in crime fiction . . . Her mental and physical strengths are beyond those of ordinary humans. Yet Larsson’s writing manages to make her intriguing, admirable and even sympathetic. . . The Girl who Played with Fire becomes an absorbing, exciting and bloody multi-layered chase . . . A riveting read.” -Times "As vivid as bloodstains on snow - and a perfect one-volume introduction to the unique strengths of Scandinavian crime fiction" - Lee Child "…this remarkable first novel by the Swedish journalist Stieg Larsson…has been a huge bestseller in Europe and will be one here if readers are looking for an intelligent, ingeniously plotted, utterly engrossing thriller that is variously a serial-killer saga, a search for a missing person and an informed glimpse into the worlds of journalism and business…It's hard to find fault with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo... It's a book that lingers in the mind." The Washington Post About the Author Stieg Larsson, who lived in Sweden, was the editor in chief of the magazine Expo and a leading expert on antidemocratic, right-wing extremist and Nazi organizations. He died in 2004, shortly after delivering the manuscripts for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest.
