Praise for Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy:
'I've just spent a few weeks - with all my experienced reader's critical defences swept away by the cyclonic force of a story - reading the three voluminous tomes of Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy, some 2,100 pages, with the same happiness and feverish excitement with which as a boy I read Dumas' series about the three musketeers of the novels of Dickens and Victor Hugo, wondering as I turned each page 'And now what, what's going to happen next?' and slowing down my reading out of the anguished foreboding of knowing that the story was going to end soon and leave me orphaned... Exceptional. Welcome to the immortality of fiction, Lisbeth Salander!' (Mario Vargas Llosa.
'The Trilogy not only comprises the three best thrillers I have ever read; it has given the genre a new dimension - it will never be quite the same again' John Julius Norwich.
'Salander is a unique character in crime fiction... Larsson's books sparkle with wit and playfulness' Val McDermid.
'With the spiky and sassy Lisbeth Salander... Larsson created the most original heroine to emerge in crime fiction for many years' Boyd Tonkin.
'A publishing sensation. Crime fiction has seldom needed to salute and mourn such a stellar talent as Larsson's in the same breath' Joan Smith.
'Intelligent, complex, with a gripping plot and deeply intriguing characters... Larsson would have lit up the fiction lists for a long time to come' Philip Pullman.
