A Lisbeth Salander Novel, Continuing Stieg Larsson's Millennium Series

The Girl Who Lived Twice

This book was far more interesting than the previous two books in the series. The writing was easy to get into and the plots meld together easily. The story stood on its own while combining the storylines of the previous books. That being said it felt like this book did what the previous two books should have done; it told its own story while moving the main story forward. The action in this book separates itself from the grounded in reality aspect of the original trilogy. Despite all of its problems, I do still hope for more books in this series, even if it’s written by another author.

New York Times Bestseller National Bestseller The sixth Lisbeth Salander story--the crime-fiction phenomenon that has sold more than 90 million copies worldwide. Lisbeth Salander--the fierce, unstoppable girl with the dragon tattoo--has disappeared. She's sold her apartment in Stockholm, gone silent electronically, and told no one where she is. And no one is aware that at long last she's got her primal enemy, her twin sister, Camilla, squarely in her sights. Mikael Blomkvist needs Salander's help unraveling the identity of a man who lived and died on the streets in Stockholm--a man who does not exist in any official records and whose garbled last words hinted at possible damaging knowledge of people in the highest echelons of government and industry. In his pocket was a crumpled piece of paper with Blomkvist's phone number on it. Once again, Salander and Blomkvist will come to each other's aid, moving in tandem toward the truths they each seek. And in the end, it will be Blomkvist who will make it possible for Salander to face the most important battle of her life and finally put her past to rest.

My stance to the continuation of the Millennium series has coloured my perception of the continuation of the trilogy, in additions to my perception of the interviews with Lagercrantz. I'm of the opinion that Larsson's writing cannot be replicated; both the feeling and the characters, which has been portrayed different (which also was expected) throughout the continuation of the series with The Girl in the Spider's Web, The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye and The Girl Who Lived Twice. Throughout the books, and especially at the end of this contracted continuation of the series, it is plainly obvious how different Lagercrantz have made the feel of Millennium. But Lagercrantz can spin and weave a tale, even though the ending of this seemed a bit too anticlimactic.

I was pleasantly surprised after the last book. I actually wondered if half the trouble of the last one was translation, since the formatting in the book was off sometimes too. It seemed like a half assed effort all around. Luckily this book has two things the previous one did not: A coherent, decent mystery and plot, and the good flow. This made it less of a chore to read as it was far less boring.

I still feel like this trilogy deeply misunderstood fundamental aspects of Lisbeth and Micke. It’s toned down. Less political, very little to none character growth, and less feminist. As with the others I would call this one toothless. The plotting is not great, but serviceable. It’s an alright commercial fiction book, which yet again, didn’t pay much attention to Lisbeth. It is however, a much better effort than the last two books and I recognize that and appreciate it.
