FYI:  Long...pondering thoughts lay just ahead....I need to say this once...I know once will be enough for most followers of my reviews.  I crave Realism...I crave the `Brutal truth' in most aspects of life.Believe it or not...I am actually a `Self-help, Spiritual reaching' type of person and Although I have a morbid `Curiosity' of the darker aspects of the Human `Condition' I still believe that good and beauty prevail....I have always questioned this about myself....I get so caught up in the `world' of light that I `crave that which is `dark' as most `REAL' Humans do.  I believe in positive thinking, angels, love and light and spiritual awareness...I teach these things...BUT...that does not complete who `I AM'..As a `Human being' We all are all composed of both aspects, and We crave the deeper acknowledgements that we are all compassionate and capable of good...however, we still have to be aware of the dangers of society and letting our `darker' selves out of the `closet...so to speak...This Series of books has really gave me some unique perspectives as a `Human being' but...yes, I'm a girl ...so maybe not so much brutality is expressed but, I still find myself touching `base' with this character on various levels...as if `he' is my `wounded child' ...hey, not everyone will get this analogy but, I'm unique so they shouldn't!This is a work of fiction but, it does bring to light what happens to `Children' that grow up in dysfunctional, broken families...the mental aspects are real...I know as I have studied true crime as well...This Series of books is intended for Horror, Slasher type readers but, in reality...it is a deeper look into the `human psyche' and it is quite troubling at times.  I love this Authors Honest Portrayal of a splintered person...a troubled spirit that has (because of `conditioning') Embraced his darker side...Hey, I don't have a support group for serial killers so please don't bash me...but, I have been, as a child, the witness and the victim so I understand the workings of the splintered mind...while I have a heart of gold that wants to be `all that is good' I am still a product of my surroundings...This Series will bring some brutal reality to your door.Lustmord is a Series that only an open-minded person such as I can really appreciate...Some of us can see both sides of the fence..and to me that is the biggest part of the battle...to know your limits and expectations and to strive to be a `Light' in a dark world but, that does not mean that we cannot explore these deeper aspects of the mind and revel in the thoughts and feelings that these characters bring to the surface.  I am a multi-faceted being as are you...If you try to hide your curiosity from the light of day it will one day consume you...Maybe this is not your `Typical' Review...If you want typical then you need to move on...I look at things from a much `deeper more intricate place' and see value in all the contributions of man.  Okay..now..I will say if you LOVE True Crime and reading about:  murder, serial killers and warped psychology then ...here is your One-Way ticket to the darkest `Rabbit-Hole' You will ever encounter....It will make you question your fellow man and trust no one...not even yourself!  Now...onto Book 6!  Whatever will I do with myself once this journey has ended??  Thank you Kirk Alex, What a Vivid and realistic Storyteller you are!  This is your finest gift!
