"You still wake up sometimes, don't you? Wake up in the iron dark with the lambs screaming?"
The above lines from the book 'The Silence of the Lambs' have sent shivers down the spines of readers, young and old.
It has even inspired major Hollywood motion pictures starring the likes of ANTHONY HOPKINS and JODIE FOSTER!!!.... aaaaaaaand since we know how much you are interested in these stars, we have no qualms about using their names here to glue your eyes to this page for the next 2 minutes!
After all - All's fair in love with books!
The Silence of the Lambs is a MUST read for horror buffs. The book, written by Thomas Harris, is the second in a series of three books - 'Red Dragon' and 'Hannibal' being the first and third respectively.
The Behavioral Science Division of the FBI seems to be fighting a losing battle in trying to catch a highly dangerous serial killer on the loose whose favorite targets are large women ;)
The one man who can provide a clue to the killer (if he can be made to do so) is Dr. Hannibal Lecter - gentleman, genius and a psychopathic, cannibalistic serial killer who's locked up in an asylum for the criminally insane!
Enter : Clarice Starling, a trainee investigator trying to trace the criminal by getting under the skin of the victims while forgetting the safety of her own....
Now, we'll leave it to you to find the rest of it.
Thomas Harris has an incomparable way of keeping you glued to the pages with his intricate character descriptions, especially that of the haunting Dr. Lecter also known as 'Hannibal, the Cannibal'.
We plunge unconsciously into the dark realms of criminal psychology and the even darker depths of good and evil at such a fast pace that it leaves the 'excit-o-meter' running wild.
This is a book you simply can't put down when you come across lines such as:
Here's one pure, absolutely scary thriller which will give you goosebumps at the least, and a couple of sleepless nights at the most.
