This was an attention-maintaining read, but I would say the tv show is more compelling. Will Graham is definitely more likeable in the show. However, I also still appreciate the characterization of him in the book. Hannibal is truly barely in this so that was a little disappointing. I also wouldn’t say this was very thrilling. Still, it was well written.
