I also did not like the return of sexual violence in this book. I always felt that Larsson was weirdly obsessed with sexual assault, even for Nordic Noir, and one reason that I liked Lagercrantz's books in the series so much was that his trilogy kept sexual violence to a minimum. Smirnoff lingered less on those scenes than Larsson, but it was there and several scenes were rather graphic.

Bland de nya karaktärerna vi lär känna så måste jag ju nämna Svala. En högintelligent 13-åring som inte känner smärta (då kan insatta snabbt räkna ut vem hennes pappa var) och vars mamma är försvunnen. Det är där som Lisbeth kommer in. Som enda tillgängliga anhörig erbjuds hon möjligheten att ta hand om Svala. Lisbeths spontana reaktion är förstås "nej, absolut inte" (av många skäl), men hon bestämmer sig för att i alla fall träffa flickan. Svala är lite som en miniversion av Salander och jag hoppas att vi får följa henne i kommande böcker också!
Avslutningsvis vill jag bara nämna uppläsaren, Reine Brynolfsson. Eftersom det var han som läste in Stieg Larssons trilogi (jag har både läst och lyssnat flera gånger) så kan det vara därför jag också tycker att Havsörnens skrik ligger närmare originalet. Stefan Sauk är uppläsare i Lagercrantzs böcker och även om han gör ett bra jobb så får jag inte samma igenkänning. Brynolfsson gör ett utmärkt jobb här, förutom på en punkt: hans uttal av Kåbdalis. Även om det är en småsak så önskar jag att han kollat med författaren innan inläsningen!
