Reviews
This book was riveting. Knowing that it was non-fiction, I found myself looking over my shoulder for a few days. This one was extremely long (16 disks). Frankly there was not enough material for this length. The author spent a lot of time repeating himself. There was more then one time when I actually checked to make sure I hadn't accidentally switched to an earlier disk in my multi-CD changer, because there was so much in depth detail being repeated. All in all, it is a great book. It got a 4 star instead of a 5 because I think the author could have done it in about 12 disks.
This is very fascinating....and very gory. Listen to it if you can.
