First: GRAPHIC , 2nd The pathological lies he tells about Viet Nam. The man is a monster, and his monstrous life and lies are best demonstrated in the obvious lies he told about VN to try to justify his horrors. There is no way some lone soldier could wander around in the jungle eating monkies and bananas, “reporting” to firebases and the going out again. He’d be in Levenworth the first time he walked away from his real job…truck driver. There is no way putting a hose in a vaginaand instantly blow her head off, or some prostitute put a razor in to cut a john and not cut herself to shreds before she could cut anyone. It is infuriating for a 2 tour VN vet’s wife to hear some evil monster use those lies as an excuse.
This book is very detailed, from his birth on. It keeps the action moving. and spares no bit or description . so it is very graphic. It does show how all the classic traits of a serial killer come together in one horrible killer who says it’s everyone else’s fault but his.
