内容説明
Lisbeth Salander is a wanted woman. Two Millennium journalists about to expose the truth about sex trafficking in Sweden are murdered, and Salander's prints are on the weapon. Her history of unpredictable and vengeful behaviour makes her an official danger to society - but no-one can find her. Mikael Blomkvist, editor-in-chief of Millennium, does not believe the police. Using all his magazine staff and resources to prove Salander's innocence, Blomkvist also uncovers her terrible past, spent in criminally corrupt institutions. Yet Salander is more avenging angel than helpless victim. She may be an expert at staying out of sight - but she has ways of tracking down her most elusive enemies.

: Treva Treat None - 2010年3月21日Fabulous, intelligent, exciting reading
I love these books! "The Girl Who Played with Fire" is the second of the trilogy, the first being "The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo." The writing is intelligent, intriguing, and talk about a page turner! Whooo. The main character, Lisbeth Salinger, is unlike any character you've ever met, and she's difficult to get to know, but strong and most admirable. Each book is self-contained, full of mystery, with an exciting plot, strength of characters, and even includes details of Sweden you may never have read about. Simply great reading, so different and so beautifully written. I am heartbroken that the author did not live to receive his accolades for these spellbinding, adventurous and finely executed novels.

Cannot wait for the third book of this triology to come out in May. Very interesting type of mystery that you really don't want to end! This is the second book. First is "The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo".
: Ella72 NY, NY - 2010年3月17日LOVED IT!!
So I purchased this book after reading the "The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo", which I loved. It's such a great page turner. I don't read mystry novels, but after reading these two I might get in to more. Can't wait for the third book to come out already pre-ordered it. If you're not sure you want to buy this one don't think any further and just purchase the book. ENJOY!
: T NC - 2010年3月16日A worthy second effort
To follow the style of the original title of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," I think this book should have been named "A Woman Who Hates Men Who Hate Women." Too convoluted? Yes, but oh so true to the story!
On the surface, "The Girl Who Played with Fire" is about sex trafficking and prostitution in Sweden and high-ranking men who abuse underage girls. But, just like the first novel, it's not quite that simple - the story gradually morphs into a tale of sexual prejudice, abuse of power, and governmental conspiracy. And even more, this book is about Lisbeth Salander, her past, her roots and the events in her life that made her who she is - a violent vigilante who hates men who hate women.
It is a great book, much more so in the second half than in the first. We get to know and understand Salander much better, her personal story is painful and at the same time inspiring, her violent crusade against abusers is compelling.
However, as much as this book is a page-turner, the flaws can't be overlooked. The novel has a slow start - too many pages are dedicated to exploring everyone's sexual preferences/histories/partners/encounters, "testing" of Salander's newly acquired breast implants, etc. This part should have been trimmed down. Do I really need to know that Erika prefers doing IT with two men? Don't think so. The other thing that is even more apparent in this book is that Larsson has a habit of repeating himself, narrating the same events several times by multiple characters. Editing should have taken care of it. And my final qualm, this novel just seems a little incomplete, there are some loose ends left and it definitely lacks an epilogue that would tie the story together.
Regardless of the flaws, "The Girl Who Played with Fire" is a worthy sequel and I think fans of the first book will enjoy the second just the same. I did and am now anxiously awaiting the release of "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest."
: Nyghtewynd St. Louis, MO - 2010年3月15日Entertaining (If a Bit Wordy...)
As someone who doesn't read a lot of fiction, I highly enjoyed Larsson's tale of the convoluted life that is Lisbeth Salander. The author does an excellent job at building a noir atmosphere that fits the plot, and Larsson's habit of quickly switching the third-person narration from character to character is manageable by the reader. While the plot includes some dead ends and some false information, it's still easy to find a rooting interest in the story, and the last 100 pages or so are impossible to put down.
That being said, there are a couple of flaws that keep the text from being fantastic. Larsson apparently attended the Stephenie Meyer school of exposition, which means that the center of the book tends to be dragged down by its own minutia. Similarly, the heroine (Lisbeth Salander) is such an engaging person that, when she disappears, the plot also slows to a crawl.
Overall, Larsson produced an entertaining, if long, read that keeps your attention and draws you in to a world where you're not going to be able to wait for the final book of the trilogy.
