Better Than Bundy

Confessions of a Serial Killer

De: Terry Ward

Narrado por: Nathan Pace

“They called Bundy a monster. I call him a benchmark.”

Step into the mind of a killer whose ambition is darker than murder—legacy.

In Better than Bundy: Confessions of a Serial Killer, readers are thrust into the chilling memoir of Zach Jackson, a man who doesn’t just admire America’s most infamous predator—he plans to surpass him. Calculated. Charismatic. Cold-blooded. Zach isn’t content with escaping justice—he wants to be remembered, feared, studied.

This psychological thriller unspools like a true crime documentary drenched in dread. Zach details his cross-country spree with clinical detachment and disturbing insight, exposing the rotting underbelly of his childhood trauma, his obsession with manipulation, and the methodical precision of a man who kills not out of rage…but design.

Each chapter drips with tension, turning the confessional into a trap for the reader's empathy. You will question your morality as you peer through his eyes. Victims are chosen, crime scenes staged, and the evidence is a deliberate dance of deception. BTB—his cryptic signature—is only the beginning.

Perfect for fans of dark transgressive psychological thrillers, true crime fiction, and morally twisted narratives, Better than Bundy invites you to walk the razor’s edge between horror and fascination. But beware: once you enter Zach’s world, there’s no guarantee you’ll come out clean.

Riveting, A must hear!

Better than Bundy: Confessions of a Serial Killer plunges readers into the disturbing memoir of Zach Jackson, a man determined not just to kill but to build a legacy darker than murder itself. Charismatic and calculating, he seeks to surpass Ted Bundy and be remembered as a predator who cannot be ignored. Through cold, clinical reflections, Zach recounts his cross-country killing spree while revealing the childhood trauma and manipulative obsessions that shaped him. This psychological thriller unfolds with the unsettling precision of a true-crime documentary, exposing a mind that kills not in anger, but by design.

The author, Terry Ward, captures the inner world of a serial killer with unsettling accuracy, vividly portraying Zach Jackson’s thoughts, processes, and motivations. Jackson’s chilling comparison of murder to a farmer killing chickens is terrifying on its own, yet Ward deepens the horror by incorporating sensory detail, such as the overwhelming copper smell of blood, that instantly evokes a visceral reaction. Jackson’s obsession with being “better than Bundy” reveals an arrogance reminiscent of BTK, the calculated intelligence of Bundy, and the destructive drive seen in mass shooters. Ward develops his characters with precision, using powerful imagery and emotional detachment to fully immerse the listener, and an unexpected plot twist at the end adds a satisfying final jolt.

The narrator, Nathan Pace, fully immerses the audience through deliberate pacing, controlled tone, and speech patterns that amplify Jackson’s chilling presence. His tonal inflections vividly capture the essence of Jackson, delivering both the clarity and arrogance characteristic of a predator who believes himself superior. Pace’s performance brings both the killer and his victims to life with disturbing authenticity.

Although true crime is one of my interests, I thoroughly enjoyed this fictional exploration of a serial killer’s depravity and highly recommend it.
