## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Entertaining and educational from start to finishing
*by M***N on September 19, 2021*

I’m getting in to true crime. I like the human psychology of it and learning about the making of the killer, as opposed to learning about the killing exclusively, as that can start to feel a bit exploitative. It’s a very well-rounded book. It’s actually one of the first few non-fiction books I’ve ever read, and it’s the most entertaining one as well. He does a great job of telling the story and explaining killer classifications and how their childhoods made them into the monsters (no sugar coating it) they are. As a female, it’s also made me a lot more aware and I’m thankful for it. Awesome writing! Will be buying more of his stuff!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ History, present, and future of serial killers
*by D***R on April 11, 2007*

A lot of reviews focused on the history covered by this book, but what I found most compelling was in fact the second half, which discussed the "formation" of a serial killer.In the first half, the author goes back a few centuries to uncover gruesome truths of serial killers across Europe. With every chapter, he steps forward in time, narrating the lives and biographies of famous and not-so-famous killers, from Jack the Ripper to the Boston Strangler. Every page delivers a shock, as the lives and practices of the killers are revealed.If you manage to survive through the photos in the center without passing out at the gore, you'll find the second half even more gripping. It explains how a serial killer develops, how his behavior differs from others in childhood, how he strikes his first victim, and the pattern that dictates his life from there on. There is plenty on the many types of killers and their various approaches to murder.A fair portion near the end of the book is dedicated to criminal profiling and crime scene investigation. The book closes with a chilling chapter on how to survive if you find yourself at the mercy of a serial killer.A very engaging read if you have the heart for the gruesome details!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stranger than Fiction
*by D***I on March 25, 2013*

They always say life imitates art, but its just the opposite - every serial killer book you've read that you think is a fantasy likely has some semblance of truth from one of the killers profiled in this book. This book is amazing, because it takes a disconnected look at the nature of a serial killer to show exactly why were fascinated by them. There is no glorification of the serial killer, just fact after fact to deconstruct the impossible - understanding the madness that drives a serial killer.Cold and clinical, this book still was one of the scariest and most gripping books I've read, simply because you know there are people out there who do the unthinkable.Also has some handy tips to stay alive when encountering a serial killer...4 stars - a great read. If you like the subject matter, this is a must read. I've read a lot of fiction in this genre, and this non-fiction was one of the best.
