Interesting, but unremarkable. The book by Brian Masters is better.

[Jeff Clausen]

I believe that this was the first book published after Dahmer was caught. It doesn’t include his trial or anything after that, but does have a good amount of space given to victims biographies. There is also a lot of criticism, by others, of the Milwaukee police work, along with the rallies and protests that publicized those policing concerns. And while the book does have the rush-it-to-print feel, I didn’t catch many errors or inconsistencies like you might expect. A true crime book that you don’t want to have as your breakfast reading material.

The fact that Jeffrey Dahmer kept severed heads in his refrigerator and body parts around his apartment leaves no doubt in my mind that he has to be one of the most sadistic serial killers. Then to find out later that he was killed in prison--well, I guess what comes around, goes around!

Aside from the actual gruesome murders, this book also touched upon the aftermath in regards to race relations, homophobia, police bias, and general tensions in Milwaukee. There was a far reaching aftermath also for his neighbours. It was interesting to hear their perspectives and what they experienced during and after the crimes.

Quizá el original tenga más sentido, pero la traducción, a cargo de Domingo Santos, es simplemente bochornosa. Arruina todo el libro con frases incoherentes y construcciones anglosajonas con poco sentido en español. Ha sido un suplicio terminarlo.

[Andrea]

Libro muy recomendable si estás interesado en los asesinos en serie y sobre todo en este fascinante caso. Sin embargo al ser del 91,el libro carece de detalles revelados hasta su muerte en los 2000's.

[Betty Stoneking]

[Yogesh]

It is a story of gore, ruthless murders and into the doings of a psycho serial killer, but very very well narrated, bringing such horrid incidents together and telling a tale on their basis is some task and the authoir here, Robert J. Dvorchak har done it splendidly. I loved this book!

[Angela Dominguez]

a little creepy, but good read.

[Michelle]

Very eerie...

I didn't think it was humanly possible to see so many typos in one book. I guess the same could be said for the number of victims inside one man's freezer? (bad joke)
