THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO LIVES ON. Lisbeth Salander is an unstoppable force: Sentenced to two months in Flodberga women`s prison for saving a young boy`s life by any means necessary, Salander refuses to say anything in her own defence. She has more important things on her mind. Mikael Blomkvist makes the long trip to visit every week
- & receives a lead to follow for his pains. For him, it looks to be an important expose for Millennium. For her, it could unlock the facts of her childhood. Even from a corrupt prison system run largely by the inmates, Salander will stand up for what she believes in, whatever the cost. & she will seek the truth that is somehow connected with her childhood memory, of a woman with a blazing birthmark on her neck
- that looked as if it had been burned by a dragon`s fire... The tension, power & unstoppable force of The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye are inspired by Stieg Larsson`s Millennium trilogy, as Salander & Blomkvist continue the fight for justice that has thrilled millions of readers across the world. Translated from the Swedish by George Goulding Review: Lagercrantz`s compassion for the underdog adds genuine emotion to his baroque plotting. There is much to admire in the way he has grasped a tricky assignment
- to continue one of the big-gest hits of recent years. Roll on the next ”girl” -- James Kidd * South China Morning Post * Lagercrantz`s excellent second contribution to Stieg Larsson`s Millennium series... twisting plot lines tie together in this complicated, fascinating mystery. As a bonus, readers learn the meaning of the dragon tattoo on Lisbeth`s back. * Publishers Weekly * Lagercrantz doesn`t falter in the mayhem department... Larsson fans certainly won`t be disappointed. * Kirkus Reviews * Lagercrantz`s latest Salander novel, is even bolder
- if somewhat more fantastical... Larsson had grand ambitions for his Millennium series, projecting a total of 10 novels. In Lagercrantz`s hands, the series is realizing grand ambitions of another sort... The Girl Who Takes an Eye for An Eye intensifies the mythic elements of Larsson`s vision. -- Maureen Corrigan * Washington Post * Expertly told, the plot crackles with life -- Geoffrey Wansell * Daily Mail * Some fictional characters prove too popular to die... Such is the case with Lisbeth Salander... Lagercrantz is doing a wonderful job. It would be hard to imagine a sequel more faithful to its work of origin than this one, which emulates the spirit & the style of the original trilogy. -- Tom Nolan * Wall Street Journal * Author Biography: David Lagercrantz was born in 1962, & is an acclaimed author & journalist. In 2015 The Girl in the Spider`s Web, his continuation of Stieg Larsson`s Millennium Trilogy, became a worldwide bestseller, & it was announced that Lagercrantz would write two further novels in the series. He is also the author of the acclaimed & bestselling I am Zlatan Ibramhimovic, & Fall of Man in Wilmslow, a novel about Alan Turing.
