Cults by Max Cutler explores some of the most notorious cults in the world and tracks how their leaders rose to power. It is based on the podcast of the same name. I found that it did read much like a podcast.
For the ones I have read about more extensively like David Koresh, Jim Jones, and Charles Manson, this book offered a nice chapter long summary. I was left wanting to know much more about the ones l was less familiar with. I would say that this book offers a nice launch pad if you are wanting to learn more, but isn't definitive in any way.
CW: sexual assault, sexual assault of minors, slavery, gaslighting, violence, murder, suicide
Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for my honest review.
