Red Dragon

De: Thomas Harris

Narrado por: Alan Sklar

A quiet summer night...a neat suburban house...and another innocent, happy family is shattered -- the latest victims of a grisly series of hideous sacrificial killings that no one understands, and no one can stop. Nobody lives to tell of the unimaginable carnage. Only the blood-stained walls bear witness.

All hope rests on Special Agent Will Graham, who must peer inside the killer's tortured soul to understand his rage, to anticipate and prevent his next vicious crime. Desperate for help, Graham finds himself locked in a deadly alliance with the brilliant Dr. Hannibal Lecter, the infamous mass murderer who Graham put in prison years ago. As the imprisoned Lecter tightens the reins of revenge, Graham's feverish pursuit of the Red Dragon draws him inside the warped mind of a psychopath, into an unforgettable world of demonic ritual and violence, beyond the limits of human terror.

Enjoyed Michael Mann's film, now know source

Knew Graham's story from Manhunter, now enjoyed entire story from the author. Very highly recommended.

Just as good as the first time I listened to it

It must have been ages since I listened to the book back when I had it on CD but I had to give it another listen because I wanted to jog my memory a bit before watching Hannibal on network TV. Season 1 was good, Season 2 not so good, so I went back to the original material including this one.

amazing

it was a fantastic book. I loved it. story is really good and gripping highly recommend it.

You're going to enjoy this book!

Very entertaining! The narrator is especially talented (scared the piss out of me at some parts) I loved it!

Classic thriller. Didn't disappoint.

Enjoyed it as much as I suspected I would being familiar with the story. I enjoyed the pace and tone of the narrator.

Solid Story

Good story, and I really appreciate actual strong female characters. I didn't watch the movie so I came in blind. I will definitely enjoy listening to this one again.

great book

loved the story from beginning to end. well written and great narration. will read more.

Revisiting a classic

I’ve read this book about 10 times and it never gets old. A great audio version, well narrated and as beautiful as ever.

Good read

This is the second book Crime Mystery book I’ve read and much like the first one this one takes some time to get rolling.

Once you get through I’d say about the first quarter of the book it really starts getting interesting, I started reading this book in Mid-March 2020 amid the Corona Virus pandemic. On normal occasions I read durning my lunch breaks and finish the chapter or hour which ever is more at night. This book (once the story took off) compelled me to start reading during breaks between customers at work.

The only negative I have about this particular story isn’t with the book itself but with the audiobook, it took some effort to listen to it with the monotoned voice of the narrator, but that was easily fixed by increasing the speed of the narration.

Soo goood

Gripping and thrilling look into mental health. I love the way the book jumps perspective without confusing the reader
