An in your face book.
From the Author
As a dyslexic, I am often accused of writing in a puritanical style. I beleive that whatever hits the page first is what should remain, but herein I have attempted to offer a writing style that is a little more conventional, but I still use the 'warts and all' writing method that should please my followers who have remained loyal to my writing style. Thnak you, Steve Richards - Dyslexic Investigative author.
Customer Reviews
Not a Carnaval, a whole funfair of horror
One of the best all round books I've read to cover a diverse selection of crimes.
Satirical culture at its best, via history
I don't know how any dork could knock such a book, this is what channel 4 and channel 5 put on TV nearly every night. This book is the Green Room combined with Never Mind the Buzzcocks and then spliced with Desperate Housewives just for good measure.
I have often watched those TV documentaries on BBC TV and wished they would spruce them up, especially Panorama, and that is what this book does.
And if the dork read with the review had of really read the book then he would know of how Richards, the author, writes his stuff in a live writing style, and then he would not be cracking up over little things he picks on. For me, a person that hates reading words, the thousands of pictures in the book told the story, what more does dork head want?
And as for Andy Jones, I'd marry him any day.
A little disappointing
This is an excellent book but a little dissapointing. The crimes the author talk about are very basic and do not go into any depth. Plenty of horrific photos.
For the true crime fan I would say its worth the purchase.
