Red Dragon

Hannibal Lecter, Book 1

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.

A native of Mississippi, Thomas Harris began his writing career covering crime in the United States and Mexico, and was a reporter and editor for the Associated Press in New York City. His first novel, Black Sunday, was published in 1975; followed by Red Dragon, in 1981; The Silence of the Lambs, in 1988; Hannibal, in 1999; and Hannibal Rising, in 2006. All the Hannibal Lecter books have been made into films, most notably starring Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster. Sky has also produced a television series based on the notorious mass murderer, starring Mads Mikkelsen, Laurence Fishburne, and Hugh Dancy.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The best popular novel published since The Godfather." (Stephen King)

"Completely gripping." ( Time Out)

"Something out of the ordinary for strong nerves and stomachs, an intricately crafted chiller." ( Observer)

Thrilling!

I can’t believe it took me so long to get to this book, it was so good I couldn’t stop listening. I usually try and spread a good book over a week or so but I devoured this book in only two days

Great book, generally good reading

Red Dragon is a horror classic, a groundbreaking procedural, just about ground zero for the modern serial killer novel.

Alan Sklar’s performance is generally solid, but like a lot of male readers he tends to make the female characters unnecessarily whiny.
