Using improv techniques as the basis, he shows how those same concepts can be applied at the gaming table, by both players and Game Masters, to move from the highly-structured play style involving heavily-scripted plots and railroad-y stories to a more organic flow of narration based on the ideas thrown out by the participants at the moment. It isn't all-or-nothing, as Walmsley gives ideas on how to transition from one style to the other via the use of certain techniques before others. I found the tone very conversational and approachable, almost a transcript of a seminar or lecture (an audio version might not be a bad idea). The presentation of the concepts is such that anyone can pick it up without needing to know anything about acting or improv, and the examples using actual games show how to apply all the theory being dished out. I only see two drawbacks with the book. First, it is a very sparse book; the content is fantastic, but it feels as if it was stretched out via blank spaces and large fonts to fill up the 80 or so pages. It makes it very easy on the eye, admittedly, but it also felt like there was a lot of wasted space. Second, while it does contain examples, I found myself wanting more: show me more ways to apply the theory, more ways in which things can go wrong then turned back on track with these techniques. More uses of the latter would address my opinion of the former (a revised edition, perhaps?). That said, I liked the book a lot. It's a great pamphlet to give someone who wants to do more with their game, try out new techniques (dare I say, evolve their style) to read and digest, and in fact I may be doing just that. Kudos to Walmsley for a great primer to more free-form roleplaying. Go, and play unsafe. (less)

The plot is interesting in that much of the suspense of this thriller has to do with events decades in the past, so there's a nice mix of investigation, anecdotes, and piecing-together-the-puzzle before it all explodes into action in the current timeline. By the time the mystery of the Vanger family is laid out in front of Blomkvist (and you), you're hooked, period.
The English translation title may leave you scratching your head at times wondering where the heck is this girl. Keep in mind the original title, "Men Who Hate Women," and the novel will make a whole lot more sense.
I liked the characters, liked the story and had no issues whatsoever with the fact that it is set in Sweden. The novel gets very rough in parts, so I would recommend it to anyone who likes thrillers with that minor warning. Looking forward to the next book in the Millennium series.(less)

It's a good story and Dick is a great writer, achieving a monotone in the narrative that echoes the desolation felt by all the characters. Ultimately, however, I just couldn't empathize with any of them; it really did not matter what their fates were at the end. I think that Blade Runner tells a better treatment of the same story, but that may simply be a matter of which one is more entrenched in my brain. A good novel, nonetheless, and I'm glad I finally read it. (less)
