Publisher's Summary

'It is an axiom of behavioural science that vampires are territorial while cannibals range widely.'

Hannibal killed nine people before he was caught. And five on his escape. Two of his victims survived - one of them is in an asylum; but the other craves revenge.

Mason Verger, a paraplegic confined to a respirator since his encounter with Dr Lecter, can move only the fingers of his crippled right hand across the soft blanket that covers his lifeless body. But Verger is very rich and very influential, and his reach extends into the echelons of power around the world.

His need to find Lecter is insatiable. In Clarice Starling he has the perfect bait. As gripping and terrifying as any reader or listener of Silence of the Lambs would expect. Simply unforgettable.

Masons voice...

Almost couldn’t finish because of the readers Mason voice. So bad, so hard to understand and so no necessary

Harris delivers

As usual, these tales wont let you down. Crime, Drama, eating people - its all very thrilling stuff and something you don't want to miss out on.

better than silence of the lambs

great story, gripping till the end. Voice performance of Mason was often very hard to understand which detracted from the overall experience

All great except...

the voice for Mason Verger was AWFUL. I understand getting into character, but oh my gosh you cannot understand it at all.

Great Book, One Chapter Out of Order

Great book, excellent reading, but one chapter was read in the wrong order, which would have been confusing to anyone who didn't know the story

Last of the Hannibal books in chronological order

The end to the Hannibal series with an odd finish. Took a while to get used to this narrator who was no comparison to Thomas Harris narrating in one of the previous books.
Kept me interested to the end.

Chapter 11 and 12 are mixed up

Last 8 or so minutes of chapter 11 should be at the end of chapter 12- it’s the conversation with Barney. That’s all.
