"In this final graphic novel adaptation of Stieg Larsson's international bestseller, Lisbeth Salander lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She's fighting for her life in more ways than one: If and when she recovers, she'll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority who have allowed the vulnerable, like herself, to suffer abuse and violence. And, on her own, she will plot revenge - against the man who tried to kill her, and the corrupt government institutions that nearly destroyed her life"--

Review of "The girl who kicked the hornet's nest" on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

The story was as compelling as the previous two novels, with tight, gripping action. I felt drawn in, connected to Lisbeth and Mikael. It was as good as the printed novel. How I dreaded the coming end of the novel...knowing a good story was coming to end.

My only complaint is with the drawing, the rendering, of the characters. The drawn characters seemed cartoonish at times.
