Steven Allen’s Reviews > The Girl in the Spider's Web > Status Update

Decided to take a break from Fantasy and Space Opera. You would think that I would dislike Lisbeth with her penchant for casual sex, but there is something about her that has me rooting for her. Granted, I see the casual sex as a character flaw, making her more human rather than a perfect MC.

I am enjoying this book, the new author captured the essence of the characters very well. If they ever make this book into a movie, I hope the Swedes do it instead of the Americans who royally screwed up the first movie despite having Daniel Craig in it.

I was concerned that this book would be a let-down compared to the other books written by Larsson. So far really well done. Lagercrantz has captured Salander perfectly, her wit and dry humor.
