[edit] Comment

Importance: has become international best-seller, references historic crime novelists, is a contemporary epic, award winner (Sweden), etc. Weakness: needs more reviews than one, and will add reference to the trilogy being in train for films. Julia Rossi (talk) 05:11, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Done. Julia Rossi (talk) 08:26, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Somewhat problematic statement

Salander, sullen, single-minded and sometimes vicious, is also incorruptible, a complete contrast to even the good guys in Larsson's world.

Is this supposed to be a joke? After reading the book, I have a hard time seeing Salander as "incorruptible", especially when contrasted to the "good guys". She does, after all, personally make off with quite a bit of Wennerström's money (which was held in Cayman Islands bank accounts, bearer bonds, etc.). Deepmath (talk) 08:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
