dark informative fast-paced

4.0

  A decent overview of the psychology of different types of killers. Great for lovers of the podcast!
 
Applies Audio edition only.
  There was an excessive part taken up by the interviews they went on for too long, plus two long interviews are just excessive.

Narrators' Rating: 5.0 stars
  Since they are podcasters they made excellent narrators of their nonfiction book! I did have to slow the book down from my normal nonfiction speed since I'm used to their speech at 1x speed, I listened at 1.75x speed.
