"Based on access to interviews, diaries, court records, and the criminal himself, I: The Creation of a Serial Killer is Keith Hunter Jesperson's chilling story. It chronicles his evolution from angry child to sociopathic murderer, from tormentor of animals to torturer of women. It is also the story of the fate that befell him after two innocent citizens were imprisoned for four years for one of his killings.".

"Jack Olsen lets the killer tell his story in his own words, offering an unprecedented glimpse into the twisted thought process of a serial murderer. Olsen takes his readers along on Jesperson's cross-country killing spree, letting him describe how he played his "death game" with eight innocent victims and how he finally came to grips with the fate he deserved."--BOOK JACKET.

3.5 – Easily the most disturbing book I've ever read. Admittedly I needed to speed through a lot of parts because I'd reached my threshold of gore. Still wanted to see it through, though. Having it told in the first person achieved the eariness it was going for while still evoking sympathy.
