I really enjoyed listening to this book but I'm glad I didn't try to read it. So much more comes across when a book is read to you using the correct expressions & accents.

An excellent story but not for the sqeamish. The book contains a brutal rape and a number of really grisly murders. Larson tends to be a bit heavy-handed on minor details throughout much of the book but mercifully includes just enough details of the more gruesome events to fully grip the horror without grinding the reader's face in it. Lisbeth Salander is truly one of the most unique and intriguing characters in modern fiction. The narration is well-performed, as well. The book is gripping, surprising, and inventive.

I love this trilogy and seem to visit it once a year...movies, books, and CDs. This was a very good reading of the story and it kept me engaged throughout...even though I know the ending.
