Stieg Larsson’s Millenium Triology was published after his untimely death at the age of 50 from a heart attack. Wikipedia has a discussion of his death and whether it was related to the fact that he lived under death threats for his work against right-wing extremism. His biography in Wikipedia shows him to be a man of action.

“The Girl Who Kicked” is number three in the trilogy and seems to me to be the least interesting of the three. It is largely procedural. It ties up some but not all of the details from the second book “The Girl Who Played With Fire”, thus leaving room for more installments which Larsson had planned and partially written. I read number three in a paperback purchased in England.

So far the Swedish filming of the first two books was well worth watching. Needless to say, if Sweden films the third novel, yours truly will be eager to watch it.
