<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>He is one of the most haunting characters in all of literature. At last the evolution of his evil is revealed. </b> <p/> Hannibal Lecter emerges from the nightmare of the Eastern Front, a boy in the snow, mute, with a chain around his neck. <p/> He seems utterly alone, but he has brought his demons with him. <p/> Hannibal's uncle, a noted painter, finds him in a Soviet orphanage and brings him to France, where Hannibal will live with his uncle and his uncle's beautiful and exotic wife, Lady Murasaki. <p/> Lady Murasaki helps Hannibal to heal. With her help he flourishes, becoming the youngest person ever admitted to medical school in France. <p/> But Hannibal's demons visit him and torment him. When he is old enough, he visits them in turn. <p/> He discovers he has gifts beyond the academic, and in that epiphany, Hannibal Lecter becomes death's prodigy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"There are images of morbid beauty here....
