2017., Adult, Viking Call No: MYS Fic Lag Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: Millennium Volume: 5Summary Note: "Lisbeth Salander, the girl with the dragon tattoo, the brilliant hacker, the obstinate outsider, the volatile seeker of justice for herself and others--even she has never been able to uncover the most telling facts of her traumatic childhood, the secrets that might finally, fully explain her to herself. Now, when she sees a chance to uncover them once and for all, she enlists the help of Mikael Blomkvist, the editor of the muckraking, investigative journal Millennium. And she will let nothing stop her--not the anti-Muslim gang she enrages by rescuing a young woman from their brutality; not the deadly reach from inside the Russian mafia of her long-lost twin sister, Camilla; and not the people who will do anything to keep buried knowledge of a sinister pseudoscientific experiment known only as The Registry. Once again, Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist, together, are the fierce heart of a thrilling full-tilt novel that takes on some of the most insidious problems facing the world at this very moment."--From publisher.

2007., Actes Sud Call No: FR MYS Fic Lar Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: Millénium Volume: 3Summary Note: Le lecteur du deuxième tome l'espérait, son rêve est exaucé : au début du troisième, Lisbeth n'est pas morte. Ce n'est cependant pas une raison pour crier victoire. Soyons réalistes : très mal en point, Lisbeth va rester coincée des semaines dans une chambre d'hôpital, dans l'incapacité physique de bouger et d'agir. Coincée, elle l'est d'autant plus que pèsent sur elles diverses accusations qui la font isoler par la police. Un ennui de taille : Zalachenko, c'est-à-dire son père qui la hait et qu'elle a frappé à coups de hache, se trouve dans le même hôpital, un peu en meilleur état qu'elle... Et, soyons réalistes encore : il n'y a aucune raison pour que les activités souterraines de quelques renégats de la Sûreté ne continuent pas et que, pour rester cachés, ces gens de l'ombre n'aient pas intérêt à éliminer ceux qui les gênent ou qui en savent trop. Côté forces du bien, on peut compter sur Mikael Blomkvist, qui d'une part aime beaucoup Lisbeth mais ne peut pas la rencontrer, et d'autre part commence à concocter un sacré scoop sur les secrets d'Etat qui pourrait par la même occasion blanchir à jamais Lisbeth et l'autoriser à vivre en paix avec elle-même. Mikael peut certainement compter sur l'aide d'Armanskij, reste à savoir s'il peut encore faire confiance à Erika Berger, passée maintenant rédac chef chez la grosse concurrence...

2010., Viking Canada Call No: Bio L333b Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: Five years after his death, Stieg Larsson is best known as the author of the Millennium Trilogy, but during his career as a journalist he was a crucial protagonist in the battle against racism and for democracy in Sweden, and one of the founders of the anti-facist magazine Expo. Kurdo Baksi first met Larsson in 1992; it was the beginning of an intense friendship, and a fruitful but challenging working relationship. In this candid and rounded memoir, Baksi answers the questions a multitude of Larsson's fans have already asked, about his upbringing; the recurring death threats; his insomnia and his vices; his feminism - so evident in his books - and his dogmatism. What was he like as a colleague? Who provided the inspiration for his now-immortal characters (Baksi is one of the few who appears in the trilogy as himself)? Who was Lisbeth Salander?.
