![]() I could not recommend this book strongly except, perhaps, to previous Lecter fans. ![]() I recall some years ago listening to 'Silence of the Lambs' being narrated by Frank Muller - now that was truly edge of the seat stuff. And his strong Southern American accent simpy cannot cope with the largely European characters he is trying to draw. His is not a bad effort, but he simply does not have the skill to fill in the characters or vary the pace and tension - it is too black and white where colour is called for, and too montone. I have to say that I thought it a mistake to have the author narrate the book. The book is OK, indeed quite interesting in its background detail, but it has neither the pace nor tension of its predecessors. I have to say that I was a tad disappointed. I am a great fan of earlier Hannibal Lecter tales, particularly 'Silence of the Lambs' and this is the main reason why I bought this book. ![]() OK but not a patch on earlier Lecter tales ![]()
