northship's review against another edition

i was uncomfortable with the tone that the author used to discuss these crimes; for someone who professed sympathy for the families and the realization that they had been destroyed, he certainly did not think about how his narration of certain events would come across. as with many people fascinated with bundy, i think sullivan let some of the legend/excitement go to his head.
for those interested in serial killers/the history thereof it is worth reading, but overall i think ann rule's book deals with the subject more sensitively (ironically enough).

Maybe the most shocking thing about this book is that Sullivan consistently refers to Bundy's rape of his victims as "having sex" with them. Sex is consensual by default. Since Bundy raped a myriad of women, often raping their corpses as well, the incorrect and offensive term showed up often and was distracting.
