Pay attention while reading these books. Every detail matters. Well done and I really enjoyed every book of the trilogy. Bonus, now there is a fourth.

We miss you Steig
Thoroughly enjoyed this novel, and went to purchase the other two books in the series immediately upon finishing it.
Could not put it down.
I liked the story line. Could have used a little less sex that didn’t add to the story.
LOVE the girl with the dragon tattoo!
Stunning book. Just an incredible read. So well written that parts of the book made me furiously angry. Yes, I got that caught up in it. It will probably become known as one of the best books of the decade.
