The Killer Book of Serial Killers was an interesting, if slightly disturbing read. If you like those true-life forensics shows then you should find this to be a interesting read.
The Killer Book of Serial Killers was like a series of overviews about some of the more notorious serial killers in history. I liked the fact that it wasn't just American serial killers, although that was the main focus of the book. They also did an overview of some of the most notorious overseas killers, including Australia's most notorious murderer, Ivan Milat who is quite well known here, but not so well known overseas.
I thought the way they presented certain bits of information, as almost pop quiz style snippets, was a good way to break up what is a rather heavy subject matter.
