Hannibal Lecter emerges from the nightmare of the Eastern Front, a boy in the snow, mute, with a chain around his neck. He seems utterly alone, but he has brought his demons with him. 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. But Hannibal’s demons visit him and torment him. When he is old enough, he visits them in turn. He discovers he has gifts beyond the academic, and in that epiphany, Hannibal Lecter becomes death’s prodigy.

It was a dark and stormy night when Mary Crane glimpsed the unlit neon sign announcing the vacancy at the Bates Motel. Exhausted, lost, and at the end of her rope, she was eager for a hot shower and a bed for the night. Her room was musty, but clean, and the manager seemed nice, if a little odd.

Four decades after it first shook the nation, then the world, William Peter Blatty's thrilling masterwork of faith and demonic possession returns in an even more powerful form. Raw and profane, shocking and blood-chilling, it remains a modern parable of good and evil and perhaps the most terrifying novel ever written.

Lisey lost her husband, Scott, two years ago, after a 25-year marriage of profound and sometimes frightening intimacy. Scott was an award-winning, best-selling novelist and a very complicated man. Early in their relationship, before they married, Lisey knew there was a place Scott went - a place that both terrified and healed him, could eat him alive or give him the ideas he needed in order to live. Now it’s Lisey’s turn to face Scott’s demons, to go to that terrifying place known as Boo’ya Moon.

Better than the movie!
I've always loved this movie, but I'm happy to say I now love the book even more! Kathy Bates is a phenomenal narrator, which is unsurprising, given her gold star acting skills. 10/10 would listen again!

A Classic!
I had only ever watched the movie and with the nearing halloween season and a 5 hour road trip I thought it was the perfect time to finally read (or should I say listen) to The Silence of the Lambs. Even though I knew the story it felt like I was hearing it for the first time! I LOVED how the book dives straight into the story; there is no waisting time! I seriously recommend this listen!!

Okay. I Give Cathy Bates credit for doing her best
Bates was not given much to work with, being that it is a 12 chapter book abridged sooo heavily. A LOT was taken out and some even changed.
I think she did a good job as Clarice and I grew to like her version of Hannibal. She never tried to be like the Hopkins version and in that way made it her own.
I blame all the issues I have with the editors and producers.

It’s Abridged , only 3 hours
I Hate female narrators , Men are better. but I read the book and saw the movie, and its a great story. So I would give Kathy Bates a try, I did not realize it abridged . most of the story is missing , I plan on returning this selection. Amazon does not have the full book available. Don't waste a credit . The full book is ten hours longer .

Is Kathy Bates a robot?
I would have purchased this book regardless of who was narrating it, but the fact that it is supposed to be Kathy Bates sealed the deal for me.
upon starting the book I was shocked to hear what I am almost certain is a robotic voice,not has to be. the mechanic sounding flow ruins it somewhat for me, regardless of how amazing the content is.

Skips so much of the book!!!
Hated this! I wanted to follow along at a faster pace 1.5x for a university class required reading. But the narrator skips whole and sometimes multiple paragraphs. It may make the story smoother for narrating. But it was horrible for following along. Didn't make it past chp 1!!! It was that bad!
