Thomas Harris, Hannibal

This Hannibal book is of a great standard of writing. Once i started to read it was very hard to put the book down. Hannibal unlike Silence Of The Lambs has greater depth to the story showing more of Hannibal's life past and present. At the end of Silence Of The Lambs Hannibal dissaperars without a trace, now he is hiding out in Paris he has had cosmetic surjery to his face so he is not so recognisable. Hannibal still keeps in touch with Clarise and follows her stories in the papers. Hannibal is on the FBI's most wanted list but they are struggeling to track him down and decide to use Clarise as bait. There is also someone else very interested in finding him, a man he had a run in with long ago. He is rich and will go to any lengths to find Hannibal, needless to say he found him before the FBI did. He had a plan to feed Hannibal alive to wild boars, but Clarise got in the way of his plans and he decides that she should be the one to test out Hannibals punishment. As she is being fed alive to the wild boars Hannibal swoops in to save her. The Hannibal book has a rather different ending, you will have to read the book to find it out, I don't want to spoil it for you now do I.

I would recommend this book to anyone, it is well worth the price and a great read.
