Wow! Just got an email that David Lagercrantz, the Swedish writer who penned the wonderful 'The Girl in the Spider's Web', a continuation of the late Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy, is going to be in town on Tuesday to sign 'The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye'.
Larsson's trilogy, which began with the posthumously published 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo', has sold 80 million copies worldwide, and deservedly so; Larsson was an incredibly gifted writer, and his heroine, Lisbeth Salander, one of the most original and memorable characters in recent literature. Lagercrantz's first continuation novel was brilliant, and fans of the Millennium series have been seriously jones-ing for another.
