Speaking of Hannibal, did Thomas Harris rip you off with that whole plot element involving hogs bred specifically to eat live humans?
I seriously doubt it. Popular writing inevitably will have some similar elements, because there are so many titles out there. Let me say this: If I found out that Thomas Harris read Unintended Consequences and went “Hmmm, that gives me an idea,” I would be very flattered and pleased. I started Hannibal half expecting it to be one of those sequels written on autopilot. I ended up whooping with delight at the wild ride Harris created for us, his readers.
