The Girl In The Spider's Web

He does it right. He develops the characters and situations and introduces new characters and situations that fit. He does two good things with Bublanski. He adds an appropriate comic book connection. The story of Lisbeth's criminal family is not over yet.

This text is not based on any manuscripts left by Larsson so I hope that someone else will develop them. Two parallel Millennium universes.

One minor difference: Lagercrantz's text is less dense. It concentrates less information into each square inch of the page. But that does not prevent this novel from being an authentic continuation. I hope that Lagercrantz writes more. He plants clues that more will come: the sister and another brother.
