Reviews"Lisbeth Salander is back--and maybe better than ever. Karin Smirnoff''s take is both respectful of the past and ready for the future--altogether remarkable." -- Lee Child, author of No Plan B "An absolute incident-packed thrill-ride from start to finish. Karin Smirnoff has taken on the legacy of a legend and done the series justice." --Jo Spain, author of The Perfect Lie "Smirnoff''s writing is wonderfully vivid. If books were birds, this would be a raptor diving towards its prey with brutal agility." --Anna Bailey, author of Where the Truth Lies "Fresh, fearless, faithful, and original. Karin Smirnoff takes on a heady challenge and makes a stylish, exciting, and truly worthy statement. One of the great crime series of our time could not be in safer, more capable hands. I loved it." --Chris Whitaker, author of We Begin at the End "Propulsive . . . Smirnoff adds new maturity and depth to the two leads, offers several jaw-dropping plot twists . . . Fans will find it a worthy addition to the series." -- Publishers Weekly "This seventh book featuring the iconoclastic, anarchic Lisbeth Salander is the first to be written by a woman, and it is all the better for it . . . Stieg Larsson gave his leading character a sharpness and contemporary relevance that echoed around the world . . . Smirnoff manages to recapture that . . . She adds another memorable ingredient: Svala, a gifted teenager who is almost as extraordinary as Salander herself . . . This legendary crime series is, thankfully, back in safe hands." --Geoffrey Wansell, Daily Mail "Smirnoff sustains the series'' trademark interwoven plotlines and no-holds-barred war on predators, but puts her unique stamp on it by weaving a stronger thread of optimism into Lisbeth''s sharp edges." --Christine Tran, Booklist "Engaging and intense . . . Smirnoff maintains the tradition of the Millennium series . . . Her strong vivid style carries the story . . . Kudos to Sarah Death [for her] excellent smooth translation." --Ewa Sherman, Nordic Lighthouse "Letting Karin Smirnoff pick up the baton after David Lagercrantz is a stroke of genius. It is hard to believe anyone could have done it better than Smirnoff." --Upsala Nya Tidning "Smirnoff has created an absolutely brilliant continuation of the series: exciting plot, plenty of action, and a sensitive portrayal of complicated relationships--where the new character Svala is one of the highlights. Welcome back, Salander!" --Femina " The Girl in the Eagle''s Talons is a really, really good crime novel. It is also a serious and successful attempt to keep Stieg Larsson''s commitment alive and let fiction speak profound truths about our time . . . Larsson''s original trilogy featured a strong feminist perspective: the theme of men''s violence against women, and women who strike back, most notably Lisbeth Salander. Karin Smirnoff proves that she is exactly the right writer to inherit this mantle . . . The Girl in the Eagle''s Talons works perfectly with what the series represents." --Skånska Dagbladet "Deeply entertaining, exciting and incredible on a James Bond level . . . I devoured it." --Weekendavisen "It is impossible to put the book down . . . The language is sharp, there is an undertone of dry and icy northern Swedish humor, Smirnoff writes vividly and imaginatively, the story is full of surprises." --Nordjyske "We more than approve of Smirnoff''s debut as a crime novelist . . . What impresses is the thrilling plot, the description of place, and above all the unexpected and, yes, poignant relationship between Lisbeth and Svala." --Svenska Dagbladet "A new beginning that takes Stieg Larsson''s beloved characters seriously." --Norrbottens-Kuriren "Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander are successfully back at work." --Jyllands-Posten
