Loved This Book!

Would you listen to I Hunt Killers again? Why?

If you enjoy shows like "Criminal Minds", or scary and gross crime shows revolving about serial killers, then you will love this book. The story was different, interesting, and I loved the main character. The narrator was also very good. I cant wait for the sequel!

A wonderful journey by a professional narrator

I love it all the way from series beginning to end. A great memory from high school as well.

Barry Lyga doesn't know who to finish a book

like the title says Barry Lyga doesn't know how to finish a book but he knows how to write one. I'd rate this book 7/10 Lyga's

One of the Best Books

if you love thrillers and mystery books, then is a must read! the narrator was a great treat too.

I Hunt Killers: A Look at Nature vs. Nurture

I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga is a young adult thriller that delves into the dark world of serial killers and forensic investigation. The story follows Jasper "Jazz" Dent, the son of notorious serial killer Billy Dent, as he becomes involved in a new series of murders in his small town.

Pros:

Good character building: Lyga excels at creating complex and compelling characters. Jazz is a particularly fascinating protagonist, grappling with his dark legacy and struggling to define his own identity. The supporting characters, such as Jazz's best friend Howie and his girlfriend Connie, are also well-developed and add depth to the story.

Meticulous research: It's evident that Lyga conducted extensive research into serial killers and forensic investigation. The book is filled with accurate and intriguing details about criminal psychology, crime scene analysis, and investigative techniques, adding a layer of realism to the narrative.

Cons:

Unsatisfying ending: One of the main criticisms of the book is its ending. The story builds to a huge climax, but it doesn't provide a true sense of closure. Instead, it leaves the reader with numerous unanswered questions and unresolved plot threads. This can be frustrating for readers who prefer a more complete and satisfying resolution.
