Resumen del Editor

There is little more terrifying than those who hunt, stalk, and snatch their prey under the cloak of darkness. These hunters search not for animals, but for the touch, taste, and empowerment of human flesh. They are cannibals, vampires, and monsters, and they walk among us.

These serial killers are not mythical beasts with horns and shaggy hair. They are people living among society, going about their day-to-day activities until nightfall. They are the Dennis Rader's, the fathers, husbands, church-going members of the community.

This A-Z encyclopedia of 150 serial killers is the ideal reference audiobook. Included are the most famous true crime serial killers, like Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, Richard Ramirez, and not to mention the women who kill, such as Aileen Wuornos, and Martha Rendell. There are also lesser known serial killers, covering many countries around the world, so broad is the range.

Each of the serial killer files includes information on when and how they killed the victims, the background of each killer, or the suspects in some cases, such as the Zodiac killer, their trials and punishments. For some there are chilling quotes by the killers themselves. The Big Book of Serial Killers is an easy-to-follow collection of information on the world's most heinous murderers.

Narration was easier to follow this time around.

Would you listen to The Big Book of Serial Killers again? Why?

Probably not. I think this book was designed to be read but was interesting to hear a bunch of stories. The hardest part was some of these killers had a long list of victims which became tedious to listen too.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Big Book of Serial Killers?

Actually making a serial killer chapter was interesting thoigh the whole book is a paradise to get quick info about killers and then decide to go off and read more detail later.

Which character – as performed by Kevin Kollins – was your favorite?

Kevin has not most of this authors books and this was much easier to follow than my previous experience. He has a great voice and never felt too bored except with long names but that is what an excyclopedia is for.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The book is about killers and what they did. Some were disturbing.

Any additional comments?

I received this book for free in exchange for an voluntarily unbiased review. Thanks to the author for giving me a chance to listen to this.

Narrator

The narrators voice is Very monotone and dry, it is hard to listen and follow along.

This Audio Book Is Incredible

From the moment I started to listen I was hooked !!! Very detailed and concise, there were moments I would stop and return the next day. This is by far one the best audio books I have listened to. I am looking forward to listening to more by Jack Rosewood, bravo Mr. Rosewood!!!!

Pretty Decent

Overall it's good if you're really interested in killers. it reads just like an encyclopedia or wikipedia. each section is short so it's not a drawn out story about the killer or the victims. Don't expect a story because there isn't one. MANY killers with high body counts were left out while adding one with two or three victims. You will in 99% of the cases hear the full victim list twice. Be prepared for Harold Shipman.

Interesting - but not for audio

THe info is interesting but take the word "encyclopedia" seriously. Not much more than overviews. And I was highly frustrated with narration

Very interesting!

The book as a whole, is overwhelming, however if you take the time to listen to each individual story, you end up getting a feel of these killers. It's terrifying, yet intriguing. I love that it took you back to the childhood of each murderer, I believe if more people took the time to listen and pay attention to these hurting children, we could save so many lives.
The biggest message behind this novel, I feel, is that we all need to be aware of the warning signs, and never be afraid to tell authorities when you see something "off".

Horrifying

The narrator Jack Rosewood was wonderful, though some of these stories were so chilling and so sad, especially the ones involving children, babies, and toddlers, it was very hard to sit through them at times I had to pause and collect myself before returning. It's heartbreaking, it shows that the devil was prevalent during certain eras for there is no other explanation, Overall this was a great find and as I mentioned earlier the narrator kept you tuned in.
