Jan: I don't know when exactly the books were written, but the author died in 2004 with the 3 books unpublished. IE was very popular until 2003, so may be it fits?#7: Jan Wolter (jan) on Sep 11, 2009 [SPOILER]
The spanish translation was also faulty and as Mario Vargas Llosas (a significant Latin American novelist) said it's structure is defective, but to the reader it doesn't matter because the novel is so engaging and the characters are so powerful that you just want to keep on reading.

I totally agree with you Jan. By the way is Lisbeth Salander (at least in spanish).#9: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Sep 12, 2009
Salander in Swedish too.#10: Barb Edwards (babarann) on Sep 12, 2009 [SPOILER]
I often choose to read books by English authors in English as the translations annoy me. There are always errors. The same goes for TV... It's never dubbed here (except for children's shows, mainly cartoons), we get subtitles instead and there are always errors. Even my kids get annoyed by the faults and errors, and they too read books in English instead of Swedish when possible. Unfortunately, books in their original language are often more expensive than the translated ones, and less likely to be found in the library, and I read a lot, too... And I don't like to part from my books, either. It's getting expensive, and we have books everywhere in our house now. Literally.

I'll have to check out the books. :)#17: Jan Wolter (jan) on Jan 28, 2010
The third book is available for pre-order at Amazon.com.#18: Sarah Andrews (sarah) on Oct 4, 2010
I've read the first two in paperback (English); the third hasn't come out in paperback the last time I checked, but it probably is now. Great series!!! Never expected to see it in a puzzle so that was a nice surprise.#19: Jota (jota) on Oct 5, 2010
Thanks Sarah.#20: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Sep 22, 2020
