Swedish smackdown

If you're a fan of Steig Larsson's hugely successful Millenium Trilogy, be sure to check out the Times article "The Afterlife of Stieg Larsson". It's a little wordy (eight pages), but offers a great breakdown of the many, many scandals, squabbles, and conspiracy theories surrounding Mr. Larsson's untimely death in 2004. I've never read one of his books, but now I'm mildly tempted--sure, there's always a risk it will turn out to be the adult mystery/suspense equivalent of Twilight, but literary frenzies always make me curious.

I recently read the first two books in the series & really enjoyed them -- in spite of all the financial stuff. Really good suspense.

My mom is geeking out over the newest one (which is quite unlike her). She tells me she doesn't care for the journalist character, but really likes the girl...
