This is a brand new Suntup Press edition of Red Dragon signed by Thomas Harris. Only 250 of this will be made and this is for # 156. This should be released sometime this summer and will be sent upon receipt. Hailed by critics as gruesome, graphic, and all too realistic, Red Dragon by Thomas Harris was first published in 1981 and marked a turning point in the way crime novels were written. The first novel in Harriss widely acclaimed Hannibal series, Red Dragon added a sense of realism to the crime novel while injecting it with a heavy dose of horror.
Harris took criminology classes to prepare for the novel, while working closely with FBI Behavioral Science agents. His extensive research was poured into creating one of the most iconic villains in history: Hannibal Lecter. In Red Dragon , former FBI profiler Will Graham comes out of retirement to apprehend a serial killer known as The Tooth Fairy, but to do so he must enlist the help of Lecter, a brilliant psychiatrist and cannibalistic serial killer with whom he has a dark past. Harris writes his villains with a profound complexity.
This, combined with his attention to the detail of FBI and police operations, added harrowing realism to his novel, and to the genre itself. The success of Red Dragon would lead to two sequels and a prequel in the Hannibal series. The book has been adapted into two feature films; Manhunter in 1986 and Red Dragon in 2002. 6 x 9 trim size. Bound in a luxurious Japanese iridescent cloth with blind stamped cover. Eight full color illustrations by Jason Mowry. Signed by Thomas Harris and Jason Mowry.
