Resumen del Editor

On February 29, 2000, John Price took out a restraining order against his girlfriend, Katherine Knight. Later that day, he told his coworkers she had stabbed him and that if he were ever to go missing, it was because Knight had killed him.

The next day, Price didn’t show up for work.

A coworker was sent to check on him. They found a bloody handprint by the front door, and they immediately contacted the police. The local police force was not prepared for the chilling scene they were about to encounter.

Price’s body was found in a chair, legs crossed, with a bottle of lemonade under his arm. He’d been decapitated and skinned. The “skin-suit” was hanging from a meat hook in the living room, and his head was found in the kitchen, in a pot of vegetables that was still warm. There were two plates on the dining table; each had the name of one of Price's children on it.

She was attempting to serve his body parts to his children.

Man-Eater is a dramatic and gripping account of the first women in Australia to be given a life sentence without parole and a special addendum "never to be released". Ryan Green’s riveting narrative draws the listener into the real-life horror experienced by the victim and has all the elements of a classic thriller.

Caution: This audiobook contains descriptive accounts of abuse and violence. If you are especially sensitive to this material, it might be advisable not to go any further

A Twisted Tale Ending in Horror

Another twisted and horrifying tale told by the master of true crime. I have listened to several of Ryan Green's works and this one is equally as well done as the others. This is about Katherine Knight but really it's about her and her mother. Whether you want to or not, you can't help but feel some sympathy for Katherine but not her mother. Due to the life path her mother chose Katherine was subjected to cruelty no one should have to endure. Her impressionable years were filled with cruelty, abuse (sexual, psychological, physical) and twisted morals. Unfortunately, these circumstances made Katherine into the woman she became. Someone who knew no boundaries, had no moral compass and was abusive herself towards others. This is fact mixed with conjecture but done in a way that is quite believable. You can imagine this family being or saying what is written. I appreciate Ryan Green's storytelling and making such terrible and horrifying events/people manageable to listen to. The narration is excellently done. Steve White has a nice voice. He managed to really pull the listener in by giving the various voices their own distinction and emotions. Overall, a truly horrifying and gripping tale of a twisted family in Australia.

Insanely disturbing

Kept me hooked the whole time just to figure out exactly why she was doing everything she was doing very disturbing but very well explained and written

Fascinating story

The title doesn’t lie. This book is terrifying. It’s a sick twisted tale of abuse and extreme violence. A woman with a temper that lashes out at anyone who gets in her way.

Monster incarnate; fascinating yet troubling

A fascinating story of a monstrous woman. This was a well written and well told story. I’ve read Ryan Green’s stuff before and this is his best work. If you want to delve into the mind of a psycho and rummage around a bit, this is a great place to start. The narrator has a smooth delivery and did a good job presenting the book.

What a "KNIGHT"-mare

This terrifying story of Katherine Knight, will literally send chills up your spine. This sadistic woman, who found enjoyment in slicing up animals and improving her knife skills by working in a meat factory, later gets revenge on John Price, after he will no longer allow her and her children to move in with him when she violated his trust by video tapping items that he had taken from his job, which ultimately got him fired. How did she get revenge you might ask....well, she sneaked into house in the middle of the night and woke him up by making love to him, then bludgeoned him and decapitating him. Then put his head in stew pot with carrots, potatoes and onions and served it to his children. When a coworker came by to check on him and saw a bloody hand print, the cops were brought in. When they arrived inside of the home, they were met with his skin hanging on the wall as if it was some animal. Sick, sick, sick

Great Read

Man-Eater: Terrifying True Story of Cannibal Killer Katherine Knight was a great true crime story by Ryan Green. This book follows Katherine Knight from her upbringing to the day she committed a chilling murder. John Price took a restraining order out on Knight and later that day he told his co-workers if he ever goes missing its because Knight killed him. The next day would prove to show that Price was right because Knight heinously murdered him. I enjoyed reading this true crime novel that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

I wanted more detail but still liked it a lot

Maybe I am just a weirdo but I feel like the story did not focus enough on the act itself as it is fascinating. The background was helpful to establish the reasons this happened but the crime itself was worth more action. The story was still a good one to read, and I would recommend to other true crime readers.

Captivating

It's true. This reads like a thriller. Green's presentation of this horrifying case is captivating and Steve White's performance complements the telling.
