A really great book. The plot was thick enough that you didn't figure things out early on, The only downfall is that I found a lot of the same names, or characters by more than one name kind of confused me. This is easily overcome within the first couple of discs. I know the book to be really slow moving, and not a lot of people could stay focused on the pages. The abridged audiobook was the perfect solution to this problem!!
This is an excellent book/CD. The author (Steig Larsson) wrote this book so well that I completed the trilogy. The Millennium-trilogy consist of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo", "The Girl Who Played With Fire", and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest" I am looking forward to the family finding someone (if haven't already) to contine the series. The author died in 2004 before the first book was ever released.
Amazing story telling. I read the two other books and watched all three movies but nothing compares to being able to sit down and crack open a book yourself. Unfortunately it's gotten harder for me to do now that my son is a bit older and craves a bit more attention. Audio discs are a God send for folks like me. I love to read but I love being able to play with my son too. Now, it's a win win situation!
Slow moving and story line did not grab me from the start, so I couldn't finish it. This might be someone else's type of book, but I would not recomend it. When I am realy boared I might give it another shot because it was recomended by other reviewers. Perhaps I just didn't give the author enough time to get farther into the story line.
This book is really book. An excellent audio and riveting plot. The audio offers a thoroughly ugly view of human nature, especially when it comes to the way Swedish men treat Swedish women. In Larsson’s world, sadism, murder and suicide are commonplace — as is lots of casual sex.
