Review: Reads like bad internet fiction... oh, wait...

What a basically "blah" story. Neither of the characters are especially interesting, the violence isn't at all effective (and of questionable reality in certain areas), there's no motivation for what's going on and basically just not much here to like.This story perpetuates one of the great myths of serial killers; that they love doing what they do and will snicker about how gloriously EVIL they are while doing it. We have two serial killers who like doing their thing through the medium of hitchhiking; one as a driver and the other as a passenger. When they meet up, it's like "Frankenstein vs the Wolfman", only even less interesting. I also find it vaguely amusing that the violence is quite graphic, but the sexual content is glossed over quickly, as per the usual for American audiences.There's some real potential here as a plot idea, but the execution, as it were, is terrible. I have no interest in reading anything by either of these authors and if I'd not downloaded the story for free, I'd feel quite ripped off.
