The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets' Nest: Stieg Larsson

[poliphilo]

A very big book in which very little happens. A not very interesting conspiracy is invesigated by a host of not very interesting policemen and PIs. Lisbeth Salander- Larsson's most (only?) interesting character spends about 500 pages in hospital. When she perks up so does the action.

Steig Larsson, a fortyish crusading journalist, wrote a character who was a fortyish crusading journalist who was oddly irresistible to women.

HE'S a fortyish crusading journalist who is irresistible women. SHE is an institutionalized violent crazy genius hacker.

They fight crime.
