Wow.

I can't say enough about this book. It both enthralled and haunted me - not just this book but the whole series. Barry Lyga did an incredible job placing us into the mind of serial killers. Billy Dent will haunt me for some time now. Worthy of more chills than Hannibal Lecter himself. During the whole series, I was rooting for Jasper Dent. Poor guy had a horrible childhood being raised by America's most notorious serial killer. In this book, you find out all of the twists and secrets we've been waiting for since book 1. I promise you that it is well worth the wait and you will not expect it at all. The book ended in a way that I did not expect however, it works for the series - and quite frankly, I'm very happy that it ended this way. All hail Barry Lyga!

listend to it in 2 days!

the first book was like dipping a toe into the pool of chaos, the second had you up to your knees, then the final book had someone push you straight into the shocking water. i couldnt put it down and almost finished it in a day. went way more gruesome than i expected from the first book but being a fan of murder mystery i couldnt put it down!

Incredible!

I've not ever read, or heard of, a series like this. There is not a single point in ANY of the (3) books with a lull; I was never not interested and intrigued to continue "reading". The performance by Charlie Thurston was great as well! So many different voices and feeling behind them - hats of to you too! Needless to say I'm pretty upset this is the final book in the Jasper Dent series. I not only recommend this series, I will also add that you're missing out if you choose to pass this up!

Excellent Conclusion to I Hunt Killers Trilogy

What was one of the most memorable moments of Blood of My Blood?

If I told that it would give away the whole story.

What about Charlie Thurston’s performance did you like?

Charlie Thurston did a great performance with this one as with the previous two.

Who was the most memorable character of Blood of My Blood and why?

I would hope the main character -Jaz Dent. His best friend Howie, girlfriend Connie, father and mother were also memorable. With out these, there would not be much of a story.

Any additional comments?

This is kind of a three book review. I purchased the first book because it was on sale. I generally don't go for the teen hero type books but I've also never sen a teen hero involved in a mass serial killer book. After listening to the first book it ends with a really compelling cliff hanger. Ditto for book two. So I had to get book three (two & three purchased with credits, not on sale). I am sorry to see them come to an end. These books were so well written, a few times common sense did need to be suspended die to the age of the main characters but this certainly did not take away from the book. I found the conclusion to be very satisfying and although another reviewer stated that it was predictable I personally did not think it was. I found parts were (fight against good vs evil), but other parts were not. I were a shocking surprise. I thought the conclusion was very thought provoking, melancholy and also uplifting with a feeling of justice received. I highly recommend this book (and the previous two).

Absolutely Perfect

All three books, concluding with this one were brilliant. They keep you on the edge of your seat, wanting more. The depth and detail in these books are second to none. The ending to cap it all off is perfect. 10/10, would listen to again. In a heartbeat. Bravo Barry, bravo.

WOW!!!

The third and last book of the I Hunt Killers series and I have to say AMAZING! I was not expecting all those twists and turns. It was one twist followed by another, another, and another! So many twists it could have made your head spin! Very gruesome, heart wrenching, and even a little nauseating. But that is what makes a good serial killer book! Cant wait to read many more of his books, new favorite author!

Loved How it Wrapped Up

I love how Lyga wrapped this series up. Kept me on edge the entire time!!

best of the series

I liked this book best. it is full of action and clues to piece together what is the truth for poor Jasper.

Great Series---if you like it Dark!

This book ends the series very satisfactorily. I had figured out the plot twist pretty early ( due to some of Grandmas statements) but I still thought it was well done. I could relate to the characters and Jazz, Connie, and Howie all seemed believable and real. It does not have a traditional HEA but it was pretty realistic and not the train wreck I feared it could be, which was nice.
I would caution against this being labeled YA. It is quite dark and fairly gruesome. It probably should be under thriller or even horror.

Entertaining, great end to the trilogy.

Great ending to the trilogy. Ending somewhat predictable, but I had to keep listening to find out how we would arrive there.
