The millennium trilogy6/29/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() They are written as two parts of a single arc, and move at faster pace than the first novel. The following two novels, The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, pick up one of the minor plot lines from the first book, and develop it into a full-fledged action story. The narrative winds between the actions of the two characters as their lives become more intertwined and as their investigations progress. Blomkvist is hired by a wealthy industrialist to look into the presumed murder of his niece a case that has long since been abandoned by the police. ![]() The first, and my favorite of the trilogy, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, introduces us to journalist Mikael Blomkvist, who has just been convicted of libel and hacker/investigator, Lisbeth Salander, who has been investigating him. The three novels, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl who Played with Fire, and The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, follow the adventures of two well-developed and intriguing characters Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist. Stieg Larsson's "Millennium Trilogy" is a perfect example of this balance, and was enjoyable no matter what was going on around me. ![]() When I'm travelling, I love to relax with a book that will hold my interest but doesn't require undivided attention. ![]()
