just okay

Okay as background noise while cleaning house, but lacking in depth, won't use any more credits on this series.

Interesting

As usual this book was informative and also have unknown details.

This is a fascinating series and is well written.

Kevin Pierce always does fantastic narration.


I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, narrator, and/or publisher.

I voluntarily left this review.

An absolutely terrible book.

This book is so bad that if I were Gregg Olson, I would take my name off of it. It is incomplete, poorly written, and confusing. While each chapter purports to focus on a single case, other criminals are introduced into the story at random, even when their crimes have nothing to do with the one that is the topic of that chapter. After these weird inclusions, the randomly mentioned crimes are never mentioned again. In some cases, the authors don't even tell you what happened to the main criminal. They did that with Jody Aries, ending her section with "she was to be sentenced to either life in prison or death" without even bothering to tell the reader which sentence she received. In other cases, the story just ends abruptly, without giving a conclusion at all. I can't believe people are giving this four stars. AI could have done a better job of writing it. In fact, maybe early AI did write it. But if this is the level of quality to expect from other collaborations? They are not worth your time.

to be fair, as a narrator, the always amazing Kevin Pierce does the best he can with really bad material. But there's not much he can do about stories that dart and veer in unexpected directions. And he does rush through reading everything a little too quickly, so there are no pauses between different topics or chapters and you just end up either confused or having to rewind repeatedly.

I want my hour and 48 minutes back.
