This book was deeply disturbing. I have read and reread the copyright page to verify that it was a work of fiction, but quite frankly I can’t imagine anyone just making this up. It was a good novel though. I would not recommend it just because of its gruesomeness. However, I would not discourage someone from reading it if they brought it up.

saoreads's review against another edition

There's an instance when reading something gives off a kind of relief but this book felt like a wall, you can't feel anything from it that brings sense of emotions, it was purely evil.

Like, okay he's sick and hurt but his inhumane methods blast you of predetermined thoughts that simply it isn't worth reading it.
