laurakath 's review for:
Hannibal Rising
by Thomas Harris
As the last book of the Hannibal series I was expecting a better ending to the series, not essentially the story and yet this wasn't delivered. Though I have to say that Thomas Harris' imagination is quite interesting, his writing on this book didn't live up to it. It was slow, simple and not as good as the previous ones. I believe that he was trying to please readers demanding for some kind of background on Hannibal Lecter and that this book was done more for pressure than for pleasure.
Nevertheless, I was able to enjoy and discover where all of Lecter's anger and need of revenge came from.
If you read the other three books, and haven't watched the movie, read it... Otherwise just go ahead and watch the movie again and grab another book... Save yourself from unnecessary characters and settings.
"Would you like to remember everything?" Mr. Jakov said.
"Yes."
"To remember is not always a blessing."
"I would like to remember everything."
"Then you'll need a mind place, to store things in. A palace in your mind."
"Does it have to be a palace?"
"It will grow to be enormous like a palace" Mr. Jakov said.
