Stieg Larrson anyone?

Posted by DevillEars on January 6, 2010 at 09:39:19:

~2 years ago, I stumbled across a new book by an author of whom I'd never heard.

The author's name was Stieg Larrson
The title of the book? The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

After a thoroughly enjoyable read I leapt at the keyboard and invoked the the dark lord, Google, to track down this author in order to find out what else he had written.

Oh woe! Stieg Larrson WAS a full-time journalist before he died. Also before he died, he tried his hand at being a part-time author and only managed to write three novels before departing for journalist heaven.

None of these novel were published until after his death and then the fornicating publishers decided, for the English market, to drag out the releases to one per year - to be released in time for Christmas.

Late 2009, the third and final novel was released.

I have all three and can strongly recommend them!!!

1) The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
2) The Girl Who Played With Fire
3) The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest

This has, for me, been the most significant book discovery of the last 10 years!!
