Historia
In 1974, Dennis Lynn Rader stalked and murdered a family of four in Wichita, Kansas. Since adolescence, he had read about serial killers and imagined becoming one. Soon after killing the family, he murdered a young woman and then another, until he had 10 victims. He named himself “B.T.K.” (bind, torture, kill) and wrote notes that terrorized the city. He remained on the loose for 30 years.

A pathetic human
Revisado: 01-23-22
Sadly, the demented details of this monsters thoughts and obsessions became boring. Once the shock value is gone, its just a sad cowardly soul desperate for attention who was never as clever as he believed he was. He spent his whole life trying to impress himself by destroying good peoples lives including his own family. I expected more insight on a serial killer, but this guy is just not that interesting. The author did do a good job putting the book together. I'm just left feeling sad for the victims and their families. So random .

Great Book!

Nikki Sixx bares his soul in this book. He clawed his way back from certain death, and actually died while doing it. Much respect.

Historia
In 1978, Warren Fellows was convicted of heroin trafficking between Thailand and Australia. He was sentenced to life imprisonment in the notorious Bang Kwang prison - better known as the Bangkok Hilton. It was the beginning of 12 years of hell in a place where sewer rats and cockroaches are the only nutritious food, where prison guards laugh as they deliver pulverising blows, and where the worst punishment is the khun deo - solitary confinement, Thai style.

Powerful!!
Revisado: 08-02-14
If you could sum up Terror by Night in three words, what would they be?
Powerful human grace
Who was your favorite character and why?
Terry
Have you listened to any of Maurice England’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Haven't listened to narrator before but he did an excellent job.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Very sad but uplifting
Any additional comments?
If you love true crime, this is not long on actual details of the crime. It is a powerful story of a victim's survival and their journey with God to find the grace and dignity to live on after a horrific loss. I'm annoyed by the anti-religious who choose to write biting reviews because of the victim's belief in God. If religion isn't your thing, put the book down and be graceful, like the victim in this story. Terry is an unlikely example of human nature at its best, a negative soul will miss that important detail.

Historia
On June 9, 2008, the butchered body of Travis Alexander was found in his Mesa, Arizona, home. The grisly nature of his death made instant headlines: With 29 knife wounds, his throat slit, and a gunshot to the head, Travis was left to die. The prime suspect in the case was Alexander's ex-girlfriend, the attractive and soft-spoken Jodi Arias. Though Arias initially said that she was nowhere near the scene of crime, little about this case was as it seemed, and before long she had been caught lying to police. As the investigation progressed, her lies evolved multiple times before finally resting on an appalling claim: She had killed Travis in self-defense.

Nothing new in this book
Revisado: 10-14-13
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
If you didn't follow the trial, this would be a good read. If you followed the trial, this is just a summary of the murder case and court coverage.
What could Jane Velez-Mitchell have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Done some more background research on Jodi Arias. There has to be some "family secrets" out there that formed her twisted personality.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Nothing
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Probably not.
Any additional comments?
Basically this book was an HLN summary of their trial coverage.

Historia
Stephen King returns to the characters and territory of one of his most popular novels ever, The Shining, in this instantly riveting novel about the now middle-aged Dan Torrance (the boy protagonist of The Shining) and the very special 12-year-old girl he must save from a tribe of murderous paranormals. This is an epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted fans of The Shining and wildly satisfy anyone new to the territory of this icon in the King canon.

One of King's Best Works!
Revisado: 10-14-13
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. Fans of King will love the storyline and characters. If you haven't read his work, you'll get sucked in and become a fan.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Doctor Sleep?
The way the story ties into The Shining, but don't want to spoil it for new readers.
What does Will Patton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Loved the narration. Kept me interested, great use of inflection and different voices to help you visualize the story and feel part of the action.
Any additional comments?
The Stand has always been my favorite book by Stephen King. I would put this in the #2 spot!
