I spent far too long trying to figure out at what point Larsson stopped writing this and when Lagercrantz picked up - not literally in the chronological sense but at what stage in the whole process. This was because I felt some of the plot wasn't as fleshed out as other parts, and likewise the characters felt a bit picked up and put down as and when it suited the storyline which didn't lend itself to a coherent or involved reading experience. I also felt there was too much telling and not enough showing which I'm pretty sure Mr Larsson wouldn't have let slip through the ahem, spider's web... Still a page-turner and still easy and fun to read.
