My review is for (PDF) version of the book, it's interesting to read about the history of Hungary, Slovakia, Romania & other countries in the 16th-17th century.
It's quite gruesome, disturbing, gory but fascinating to read about so this book might not be for everyone.
For a lot of people Erzsébet Báthory is fascinating, intriguing to a lot of people.
