I'm not going to lie if you asked me which author would be the first author to sell 1 million copies on Amazon's Kindle I would have said J.K Rowling or Stephanie Myer. If you had asked me I would have been sadly mistaken. That honor went to Swedish author Stieg Larsson! I'm a bit of a book worm and I had never heard of Stieg Larsson but he is the author of the Millennium Trilogy which includes the books "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo", "The Girl Who Played with Fire" and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest".
i know Karim , i've never heard of him until recently which is a shame, .... am going to read his books soon :)
it's so sad that he died before even releasing his best-selling trilogy :(
YES.. I am actually reading his first book " The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" and it is really interesting, funny thing also is that I'm reading it on my Kindle, just got it about a month ago. Fantastic, both of them, the Kindle and the book. Deserves it.
thanks for sharing this bit of info...i've never heard of this author and i hope i will be able to buy the book and download it to my kindle...thanks karim
Kindles are stupid, go read real books.
Stieg Larsson is a very popular Swedish writer, his books is of course very popular in Sweden and in other countries also. The books are going to be made into Hollywood films now, so they are very popular. I've actually read the first two books, and I can tell you that they are very interesting and good. Its a sort of criminal drama with a journalist and a very odd, but a very smart female computer hacker, and they investigate and solve crimes together. I really recommend you to read these books, because they keep you intrigued under the whole time while reading the books. Its really a shame that his books became known and famous after his death... I want to thank Waleg for being a good magazine with interesting articles :)
