Both this and the second book in the series, The Girl Who Played with Fire, have received widespread critical acclaim, and postuhumously Larsson has become a bestselling and award-winning novelist. The final book in the trilogy, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest, will be released in September 2009.
