They Walk Among Us is an interesting collection of serial killers around the globe. The book opens with arguably the most famous serial killer in history, Jack the Ripper. The ones you expect to find are present also, Bundy, BTK, Son of Sam, Gacy etc along with some I either did not know or could remember only after starting their chapter. The chapters provide the facts of the cases and a bit of what is known about the serial killer. It was interesting how the authors set the stage by going back in time and giving us a bit of headline history for the years involved. The authors dedicate this book to the victims and their families. They then closed each chapter with a list of the victims so it is the victims who stay with you. I really appreciated this. They are who we should be remembering. sadly their names are overshadowed by their murderers. The book is not a long read. The chapters are short and compelling to read. However it did take me extra time to read as the shock and horror takes time to process. I would find myself weeping for the victims and thinking about them after each chapter. It is a violent and graphic book as expected. I'm not certain one can write a book like this and not have that. Their are some pictures in each chapter. On the Kindle, which is what I read it on, you can tap on these to enlarge them. The table of contents is there but not user friendly. I solved this by highlighting each chapter title and can use my notes to go to a specific place. That was the only issue I had with the book. I would, and have, recommended it to true crime readers. My actual rating is 4.5 stars. but because you cannot give half a star I have to go either up or down. I am choosing to go up as it was not an issue with content or the writing that I deducted half a star.Product details

They Walk Among Us Serial Killers eBook Les MacDonald Tristan MacDonald Reviews
good book
This book was well written and easy to read. One of those books that are hard to put down. It's hard to believe how some people are so evil.
Interesting, but nothing to go out of the way to buy. There are lots of better books about serial killers out there. I think I will stick to fiction fron now on if I am buying kindle editions.
The author sticks to facts and does not bother with trying to explore what drove a serial killer to what he or she did. However, here and there the author starts judging juries or judges and it becomes clear that he is in favour of the death penalty.
Good info in this book. I was impressed that the author included many lesser known, but equally prolific, killers. I also enjoyed the author's sense of humor. Some of the info is generic, which is the reason for the 4 stars versus 5.
This is a very easy read with some lesser known serial killers listed. Being the sarcastic person that I am, I appreciated the authors' sarcastic opinion bringing some lightness to a very dark subject. It contains a bunch of errors in editing so it could become your very own drinking game! I don't believe that anyone is going to receive any real insight into the mind of a killer and I don't think the author's set out to do so. It does seem that the vast majority of these killers had horrible childhoods, so parents beware.
I've read 2 of Les's books and enjoyed the humor and coverage in both. Intending to buy more from him as true-crime is my favorite genre (fright now anyway!). Walk Among Us and Those Want Ads make great late-night spooky reading. I'm always glad to find an author in true-crime who isn't just a copy-and-paste writer. Les is original, funny and offers unique takes on some of the classic cases I already knew the basic facts of. Thanks Les.
