About this listen

The sixth in the Millennium series featuring The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - more than 100 million copies sold worldwide.

"What are you going to do now?"
"I will be the hunter and not the hunted."

Lisbeth Salander's mentor and protector Holger Palmgren is dead, and she has been gone from Stockholm since his funeral. All summer, Mikael Blomkvist has been plagued by the fear that Salander's enemies will come after her.

He should, perhaps, be more concerned for himself.

In the pocket of an unidentified homeless man, who died with the name of a Swedish government minister on his lips, the police find a list of telephone numbers. Among them, the contact for Millennium magazine and the investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist. Following the scorched trail of her twin sister Camilla to Moscow, Salander nevertheless continues to watch over her old friend. Soon Blomkvist will need her help. But first, she has an old score to settle; and fresh outrage to avenge.

The next episode in David Lagercrantz's acclaimed continuation of Stieg Larsson's Dragon Tattoo series is a thrilling ride that scales the heights of Everest and plunges the depths of Russia's criminal underworld. In a climax of shattering violence, Lisbeth Salander will face her nemesis.

For the girl with the dragon tattoo, the personal is always political - and ultimately deadly.

Critic reviews

"A murder mystery inside an espionage conspiracy wrapped in an action thriller-a unique concoction that should leave Salander's legion of followers clamoring for more." (Tom Nolan)

"Salander and Blomkvist are just as compelling as ever." (Michiko Kakutani, New York Times)

"Not only do the matter-of-fact style and intricate plotting and sexy, chilling atmosphere feel very true to the original novels, but Lagercrantz transcends the source material." (Benjamin Percy, Esquire)

Did the editor change

I have really enjoyed this series but this book was not of the same caliber. it was almost like the editor had changed it did not flow. Well performed though Saul does a great job.

Not a fan of this one

Normally these stories are great but I found this one quite long and difficult to follow. A number of threads in this story that work to create the final outcome but it is too clever and quite political

If you like this series you will like this book

If you like this series you will like this book, at least I did. I thought the authors were creative, combining mystery and suspense which kept me interested. And of course you can't go past the excellent narration from Saul Reichlin. This one went into the top tier in my library.

I liked it!

That’s it - it follows the original story close enough and the delivery is exactly the way I (as a South African non-native english speaker) thought it should sound! Thoroughly enjoyed all three!

Cannot better Stieg Larsson

As a fan of Lisbeth, this novel is not really about her at all. In my opinion her role in it is small, predictable and weak. It’s about another plot line altogether and misses the passion that, I believe, Stieg Larsson had for foregrounding Lisbeth, raising gender and neurodiversity issues.

Weakest of the bunch but still...

I was hesitant to read this book, afraid that it'll ruin my favorite series. It wasn't that bad but it definitely is the weakest. There are some plot holes and logical errors and moments where the characters actions are inconsistent. But there are some good bits and as a lover of the series I found a way to enjoy it.

Great ending to the 2nd trilogy

Great story and ending. I liked the twins story more though but overall superb. Voice acting was excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent story

I like the story. I almost finished the book in one session. It is written in a way that the previous books context is not that important.

Sadly disappointing

This is the sixth book in the Millenium series. Lisbeth prepares for the final battle of justice for her past wrongdoings, aided by Mikael.

I followed the series with much hope as I loved the story, characters and plot development, but have been sadly disappointed. The first was epic, a reread in my books, the second and third were ok, but the last three, including this one, were not great. I listened to them all to complete the series but I would, unfortunately, not recommend the final three.
