Resumen del Editor

'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.

Any additional comments?

THOROUGHLY ENJOYABLE,

How can you go wrong with Hannibal Lector?

Would you listen to Hannibal again? Why?

Yes I would. It is not only well written, but it translates well into an audio book

What did you like best about this story?

that it was unabridged

Which scene was your favorite?

Can't really say the whole book was good

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

see above

Any additional comments?

At least he pronounced a lot of the words correctly as some audible books have mispronounciations

The best book of the series

Would you listen to Hannibal again? Why?

I would definitely listen to this book again. I have read it once in printed form and will likely listen to the audiobook again in the medium term. I believe it to be if not the best, the most interesting book from the Thomas Harris series.

What did you like best about this story?

The characters - with the exception of Clarice Starling almost every character in the book is despicable. They are a very colourful bunch of people to say the least.

What does Daniel Gerroll bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He is a wonderful narrator, his narration of the faceless, lipless and severly crippled Mason Verger was exactly what I would have imagined from the printed version.

If you could rename Hannibal, what would you call it?

A Cheerful Homecoming

Any additional comments?

Love the ending.. which flies in the face of popular opinion. A great and unexpected ending to a wonderful series of stories.

Ridiculously intrusive narration

I have read and enjoyed this book. I was so looking forward to enjoying the Audible version on my runs but I am not sure if I can finish it. The narrators accent is so jarring, it distracts me from the story. This has never bothered me about an audio book before and I really didn't think it would make that much difference but it makes listening so much hard work! Please let me know if there is another version.
