 ... Lecter's named Mason Verger, who is scarred from an outing with Lecter, where he was convinced to remove his face with glass and allow his own dogs to eat it. He plans revenge on Lecter, hoping to capture him and and kill him. What makes the novel what it is is obviously the presence of everyone's favourite villain, Lecter, and whilst I cannot think of him without picturing Anthony Hopkins' savage portrayal, Harris has brought the famed character to life once again with gusto. Also returning is FBI Agent Clarice Star...more

Premium Review Hannibal - Thomas Harris: Great horror novel (338 words)
by - written on 13/09/09 (Very useful, 9 readings)
Rating:

Although it's not really expected that Thomas Harris can strike it rich three times in a row, he has more or less managed that with a worthy successor to his famed novels The Silence of the Lambs and Red Dragon. The book really is quite an entertaining yarn if it somewhat, I mean, VERY, absurd. Still, the novel is written in a tone that never takes this too self-seriously, for Harris is a smart man that knows his audience are smart people. The plot involves numerous crazy moments, but revolves around a former acquaintance of Lecter's named Mason Verger, who is scarred from an outing with Lecter, where he was convinced to remove his face with glass and allow ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review A Book To Get Your Teeth Into.... (625 words)

Rating:

After all the hype surrounding the year 2000 movie of Hannibal, it is very easy to overlook the fact that it was based upon one of the best thriller books written in recent years. In my humble opinion, the film did no justice for this fantastic book, and any fans of Doctor Hannibal Lectar out there who rely on the movie world for their kicks need to get their reading glasses on. Hannibal is the third book in the trilogy surrounding Dr Lectar, written by the fantastically talented Thomas Harris. The book takes up seven years after The Silence of the Lambs finished. Hannibal Lectar has been on the run for 7 years since his escape from custody for several ...  Read the complete review

Rating:

I always swore I would never watch the movie… just as I said I would never watch Silence of the Lambs - I’m easily scared, and thought that it would have me hiding under my pillow at night, waking up in a cold sweat and all the other things that movies like Psycho had me doing. That was until I started dating a horror fanatic. Since then, I’ve got to know in intricate detail the backs of the cushions in our living room - good things to hide behind during a scary scene. He convinced me to watch silence of the lambs, and I was astounded when, I actually enjoyed it, and wasn’t overly scared by the whole thing (much to his ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Yummy (363 words)

Rating:

Admittedly, expectations for this long, immensely grim novel had been raised far above what any book could probably stand, but Thomas Harris' defiantly gothic horror sequel to 'Silence of the Lambs' is a masterpiece of suspense. Much of the emphasis is on the deeply unpleasant - the disgusting child molester Mason Verger (whose face was destroyed by Lecter) homes to avenge himself on Lecter by feeding him to specially reared monster pigs, while Lecter carves a bloody trail through Italy before finally returning to the US for a reunion with Clarice Starling. It isn't a conventional serial killer novel by any means, and many fans of the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Hannibal - Thomas Harris: Hannibal by Thomas Harris - Arrow Books (161 words)
by - written on 03/08/00 (Very useful, 6 readings)
Rating:

This eagerly awaited sequel to the highly successful Silence of the Lambs is a must for your holiday beach/airport departure lounge reading. From the opening lines through to its conclusion it is compulsive reading. Dr Hannibal Lecter, who escaped from custody at the end of the first book, re-surfaces after seven years on the run and is as cunning and nasty as ever. Clarice Starling, the FBI Special Agent who with some help from Dr Lecter, became infamous for her involvement in the arrest of the serial murderer Jame Gumb and the safe release of his high profile captive, has more than a passing interest in the doctor's whereabouts and recapture - but a few ...  Read the complete review
