Our reviews for The Girl Who Played with Fire
The Girl Who Played with Fire
Stieg Larsson's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo has been a publishing sensation: literary thrillers by dead Swedish authors don't tend to sell very well, but The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo sold by the bucket-load, and was critically acclaimed to boot. The Girl Who Played with Fire is the follow-up to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and is, if anything, an even better book than its superb predecessor.
Journalist Michael Blomkvist hasn't seen hide nor hair of the increasingly enigmatic Lisbeth Salander since she disappered nearly 2 years ago (after the events of the Vanger case told in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo). But then Salander is suddenly all over the headlines: she is, it seems, the prime suspect in three killings. Blomkvist, of course, believes none of this, and so he must get involved. In truth, neither he nor anyone else, it seems, knows the real Lisbeth Salander, and it is only by finding out that Blomkvist can get to the bottom of the case.
An absolutely riveting, top-notch thriller. Not to be missed.
