| A Few Customer Reviews
Insanely Interseting If you are interested in psycopaths and lust murderers, than this is a must have.
All You Ever Wanted to Know About Serial Killers...Mostly... This is a veritable compendium of serial killers (who they are, how they kill, why they do it) and each killer has an in depth case study, and I do mean IN DEPTH! What more can I say. It was an interesting read with loads of resources for whatever macabre murder or murder type strikes your fancy...my only complaint is that there was actually quite a bit of repeated information. I'm assuming though that the author probably doesn't intend for the book to be read cover to cover (as I did), so he repeats information in various sections one might reference, probably to ensure his ideas are conveyed thoroughly for those not reading the entire book, like say, looking up a specific killer or type of killer. I give it a solid B, this would make a handy reference for a library or for use in a personal library if one writes about serial killers! :-)
serial killer files this book is a good source of info but it jumps around alot. i found it frustrating that the author kept reffering to other sks while talking about another. |
