It was nice to see these characters overlap and some where they began. Creepy, gory, good read.
Story 5/5Narrative 5/5It’s a very good story about serial killers . It’s well written, with dark humor and very interesting characters.I loved it!!!PS: It’s violent!
It's ok.I like Killers (the sequel) much better, but this is a whole lot of batshit blood and guts, which is fun. Just don't expect Hannibal Lecter. This collection is no where near that deep.
Remember the twin golden rules of hitchhiking?#1: Don’t go hitchhiking, because the driver who picks you up could be certifiably crazy.#2: Don’t pick up hitchhikers, because the traveler you pick up could be certifiably crazy.So what if, on some dark, isolated road, Crazy #1 offered a ride to Crazy #2?Holy. Shit. I flew through this and loved every fast-paced, horrible, gory page of it. I loved how easily the characters stories intertwined and the last chapter of Lucy and Donaldson's encounter h...
Blake Crouch, Jack Kilborn, and J. A. Konrath, Serial Uncut (Amazon Digital Services, 2010)I was a big fan of Blake Crouch's first novel, but then I stopped reading him for some reason I don't quite recall. I've never experienced Kilborn/Konrath (everyone knows they're the same person, yes?), so I figured I'd bone up on what Blake's been up to and get a taste of another mystery writer at the same time with this inexpensive little ebook that's had a few of my friends raving for months now. Not in...
I like the idea of a hitchhiker serial killer getting picked up by a serial killer, the idea of crazy meeting crazy is interesting.I also like the competing author idea, but all and all this seemed to be gratuitous for the sake of being gratuitous. I guess it comes with the subject.
Do not ever hitchhike!
After reading over ten books by J.A. Konrath/ Jack Kilborn and a couple by Blake Crouch, I thought I had read every conceivable way a human being could be tortured and killed in brutal, screaming agony. I was wrong. Salt in the wounds I've heard of, but lemon juice? Seriously gross.
An intense and quick read, Serial Uncut is loads of fun, although quite violent. Then again, an novel about serial killers would be a bit odd if it were not violent. I mean, the subject matter pretty much demands that.This much said, the fun of the novel is the solid character work throughout. As a fan of Blake Crouch, I'll also add that this collaboration with Jack Kilborn/J.A. Konrath was sufficient to make me curious enough to check out the rest of the Kilborne/Konrath library of titles. Even...
Read the warnings at the beginning of this book.This is a horror story, or collection of shorts, woven together by the two authors. Yes, there are only 2 authors, Kilborn and Konrath are both the same person. The interview at the end gives a great behind-the-scenes look at the collaboration effort between Crouch and JK.If you are looking for something a little less intense I would suggest J.A.Konrath’s Jack Daniels series.
Blake Crouch and J.A. Konrath(Jack Kilborn) are two of the most disturbing authors writing today. If you can read a book with the character Luther Kite in it and not check under the bed before you go to sleep you're braver than I am.
Have you ever overheard a couple of teenagers desperately trying to convince each other how "shocking" and "edgy" they can be? That's this book. It reads more like an exercise in attention-seeking on the part of the authors than an actual narrative. One thing that leads me to this impression is that there's a lot more talk about serial killing than actual serial killing. Whereas most books of this ilk rush through the plot to get to the murder scenes, this book rushes through the plot and the mu...
I loved it!!! Extremely gory fast paced and well just plain siCK at times ....what does that say about me!!!!! I hate myself for liking it but i did lol
This one I actually had to force myself to finish. The neverending torture-scenes told by people with no human emotions just grinded my will to live down.
This was great! So disgusting and funny and awesome! I know literally no one I could recommend this to, and that's a bummer, since it's a very entertaining little read. Also: the discussion between the authors at the end is a lovely cap!
Remember the twin golden rules of hitchhiking?# 1: Don't go hitchhiking, because the driver who picks you up could be a serial killer.# 2: Don't pick up hitchhikers, because the traveler you pick up could be a serial killer.So what happens when a serial killer picks up another serial killer who's hitchhiking? Hopefully, one less serial killer in the world & good news for the rest of us, rather than them bonding & becoming a team, right? I don't think I've read either of these authors until Dracu...
This is a story about hitchhikers who are serial killers and what happens to them. Want to read more? Read and find out for yourself.This was my first time reading a book by authors Jack Kilborn and Blake Crouch (who does the Wayward Pines book trilogy). I thought this was a pretty good read that I'd consider as a stand-alone novel even though they mentioned reading other novellas of the authors work. If you like stories about Serial Killers, definitely check it out. You can get this at your loc...
What would have happened if Ted Bundy would have picked up Jeffery Dahmer or John Wayne Gacy? Hmmmm? This is why I have NEVER EVER hitch hiked OR hitched!! Nope! Never! This is the most fun you will have getting grossed out to the MAXX!!! Whoa! Another stomach churner from Crouch, Kilborn and Konrath!!! But it is so much sick as fuck fun, you will be embarrassed to admit that you LOVED every sick, mutilating, and cannibalizing page that you flipped!! So, with this being the first book in the 'Se...
When I saw the incomparable Blake Crouch had another book written in collaboration with Jack Kilborn I knew I had to read it. This is really a novella with several stories but the same characters, serial killers, and the stories and people intersect leading to some of the most gruesome and gory shit I have ever read. I loved it! Not sure what that says about me. The writing was, of course, great and the stories linked up beautifully. Very entertaining in a sick way. Hahaha. I listened to the aud...
