"THE READER OF THIS BOOK
WILL DOUBTLESS COME AWAY WITH A GLOOMIER VIEWS OF HUMAN NATURE THAN THEY BEGAN
WITH………….THE SERIAL KILLER IS A PRODUCT OF OUR AGE JUST AS THE HIGHWAYMEN WERE
THE PRODUCT OF THE 18TH CENTURY"-this is how the book’s
conclusion begins.
And true in fact, anyone who reads this book will be
humiliated for the sake of humanity.
This book
leaves you imagining what it would be like, all those notorious crimes. In fact,
the book led me into a startling discovery that I myself could become one such
savage if not checked at the right moment. Or possibly, someone close to you
could become a serial killer or is already one. Thus, this book somersaults
your entire conscience.
I personally
do not recommend this for children or frail hearted women because there are
many savage, blood chilling and squeamish accounts of murder retold throughout
this book. Don’t let this book inspire you in the wrong direction, that would
be a disaster. Teens, who read this, may get attracted to the ways and
mannerisms of famous murderers, their sexual passions, sadist feelings, drug
usage, homosexuality and cold blooded heart. That, then would exactly be the reverse
of what the authors would have actually wanted.
Authors COLIN
and DAMON WILSON are quite a celebrity brothers because of their great literary
contributions to the world of criminology. If anyone has the expertise to
create such a book on such a matter, it would be the WILSON brothers.
The book
recounts tales of world famous murderers like:
JACK THE RIPPER, THE DUSSELDORF VAMPIRE, MOORS MURDERERS,
THE RED SPIDER, CHRISTIE THE MONSTER AND EXTREME SAVAGES LIKE ANTONIO CHIKATILO
AND CARL PANZRAM.
Despite of
the book’s extreme nature and some x-rated recounting, its worth and more the 4
pounds you spend on it.
