Elizabeth Bathory: The Life and Legacy of History's Most Prolific Serial Killer

If I could give Zero stars I would, the 1 star is for the cover which is quite nice and wasted on this book.The book is short, it’s only 40ish pages long, which yes I was disappointed by, but my fault for not reading the full item details. I would not even mind the length of the book, if the content was in anyway decent, but sadly it is lacking.I’m not sure what the background of the author is, or who edits the book, but the quality of the writing is poor. I almost wonder as others have, if the author is a high school student and this is an essay they’ve had published.The book is full of spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and there are some sections and paragraphs that just don’t make sense, almost as if the author has copied and pasted from elsewhere and forgotten to tidy it up.There is a huge overuse of the phrase ‘It is Said..’ but the author never provides information on who it is said by, or the sources of the information.It is purely descriptive with no information to back up any speculation.The timeline at the back is the most useful, and summarises the rest of the book adequately.I have sent this book back to Amazon for a full refund, and ordered another book in its place.Very Disappointing, a fascinating character from history, but the book does not do the subject any justice at all. If you’re going to write a book, at least go to the effort of providing good information about that person.

Not good at all. Minimal facts and a very loose reflection on the potential events and counter theories. One not to bother with.

This book has so many spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. If it has been translated from another language then the translator did not do a very good job.

Sparse and lacking in depth.

This was an interesting essay however I was left wondering if this was a students work
