Book Review (The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest)

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson

I loved this entire series. This is the third and final book of the trilogy.  Unlike the second book which picks up approximately a year or so after the first book, this book starts only minutes after the second book. From the very first page, you are hooked and can't put it down.  The entire series is being made into an American movie so you better read up before it hits the big screens!  I say an American movie because the movies are available but are all in subtitles as the original story was written in Swedish and then translated into English.

Check out the first two books if you are interested in taking on the trilogy before it hits the theaters.

As the finale to Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest is not content to merely match the adrenaline-charged pace that made international bestsellers out of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played with Fire. Instead, it roars with an explosive storyline that blows the doors off the series and announces that the very best has been saved for last. A familiar evil lies in wait for Lisbeth Salander, but this time, she must do more than confront the miscreants of her past; she must destroy them. Much to her chagrin, survival requires her to place a great deal of faith in journalist Mikael Blomkvist and trust his judgment when the stakes are highest. To reveal more of the plot would be criminal, as Larsson's mastery of the unexpected is why millions have fallen hard for his work. But rest assured that the odds are again stacked, the challenges personal, and the action fraught with neck-snapping revelations in this snarling conclusion to a thrilling triad. This closing chapter to The Girl's pursuit of justice is guaranteed to leave readers both satisfied and saddened once the final page has been turned. --Dave Callanan --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
