Dark Webs Booktakes you into the twisted world of stalkers and the devastating impact their obsessions can have on their victims As expected, I loved this novel just as much as I loved all of her others.
The stories were both shocking and riveting, especially the last two in the novel, I highly recommend Eileen Ormsby for all true crime fans, Lots of errors

But she calls her editor "legendary", I'd beg to differ. Sorry. The stories were good, different, unique, ones I've never heard before, which is difficult to find for me,

It flows well, Other than that, the stories are short so not really much you can say about them, Consuming

This book is so good covering stalkers of all types who used many means to harass and sometimes hurt or kill the object of their fantasies.
I had to go to Amazon and read the reviews left on Richard Britain's book, " The World Rose", I was happy to stumble onto this book and am about to begin another of her books on the dark web.
Oh yeah, take some time to check out those one star Amazon reviews I mentioned above, They make for humorous reading, Not bad

If you like true crime and not an excessive amount of detail, this book is for you.
It makes for a quick read with some very interesting tales, As a big true crime fan, I absolutely loved this book, All four cases were well researched and laid out, Gripping, almost unreal, the stories read like a fine novel and drew you in with every detail, This is an author to definitely keep your eye on, Dark, disturbing, and near unbelievable Stalkers by Eileen Ormsby reads like crime fiction at its finest only it's not, Comprising four stories of seriously creepy stalkers complete with information about each stalkers sub category for added context and insight into the mind of the maddened, author Eileen Ormsby provides a peak behind the curtain of normalcy to showcase a world so twisted it's difficult to comprehend.


Whilst it would've been easy to write a book featuring high profile public figure harassment/stalker cases spattered across mainstream media, Stalkers delves a little deeper, both in timeline and victim.
Sure there's one story featuring an up and coming young actress but the others are about normal, everyday people, including a shocking case featuring two teenage boys which, honestly scared the living daylight out of me, as did one about a deluded author who sought out a book reviewer who posted an unfavourable review on Goodreads! yikes.


It's been a while since a true crime book has given me serious goose bumps, Not since I'll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara has a nonfiction book left such a lasting impression and that's exactly what Stalkers has done especially the fourth story about a young women who falls victim to a Craigslist rape fantasy which honestly feels like it was written for the silver screen and not ripped from police files and public news reports.
There's so many twists to this torrid tale I couldn't believe how it turned out,

If you're a true crime junkie and/or a fan of the The Dark Web books by Eileen Ormsby this is a nobrainer This is definitely an enjoyable and crazy read that most fans of true crime will enjoy.
Focusing on four different true stories of four types of stalkers most following some path of entitlement, anger, and unrequited love, however I left the review atbecause I just wasnt that blown away by the first two stories.
I dont, by any means, intend any disrespect on behalf of the victims or families who experienced these nightmares, However, in contrast to the last two stories, theyre relatively bland and predictable: unstable guy “falls in love” with Hollywood celeb he believes loves him back, another unstable guy falls in love with a fellow college student upon seeing her working at the Student Union.
Both men go on to harass these women for as long as theyre permitted by slow response of law enforcement one take turns deadly and the other, no, but very easily could have and hopefully the one that didnt doesnt end up killing another human being in the future.


I gave it four because once I got to the last two stories of John/Matt and then Ian/Michelle/Angela, I literally couldnt put the book down when Ive repeatedly been putting it down for about a week now.
The last two are so crazy, so bizarre, so clearly fall under the “when the truth is stranger than fiction” label.
It just amazes you how obsessive human beings can be, how delusional, and how these obsessions and delusions can make them entirely unsympathetic monsters when it comes to the damage they inflict onto the lives of an innocent human being.


Ormsby clearly has a fascination with the dark side of the human psyche which I can certainly appreciate.
Its not that I ENJOY this stuff or that it doesnt disturb me but like others who love to research into true crime and the minds of psychopaths, I want to know as much as possible about their motives, and how and when the hell they became evil incarnated.
Great storyteller and I may likely check out her book, The Darkest Web, where she provides more case studies of “almosttooderangedtobelieve” into individuals who rule the creepiest corners of the dark web.


Recommend for sure, and if youre feeling a bit bored by the first two stories, you can always skim through those to the last two, which I guarantee will leave you guessing until the end storystill wasnt entirely

resolved when the book went to press so I plan on looking more into that one as soon as I post my review in a second!.
I do love a well written book about the dangers of the world, And the twists and turns of other peoples' minds and thoughts, Here is a dip into the reality of what happens when a crush turns fatal or simply destructive, Worth the read, though also well written and researched, plenty of detail and no judgement, these stories read like the nightmares they really are and I for one found myself engrossed in the awful truth about humanity! Stalkers is the third book in the Dark Webs series and, trust me, it beggars belief.
It reads like it is straight out of Hollywood, the scene of the first telling of stalker behaviour, In here, we have two stories from America and two from the U, K. They are all horrible in their own way and yet show how easy it is, if you are that way inclined, to become a stalker.


The book itself is wellwritten with each story almost have a fictionlike quality to it, There are facts and figures, police reports, and verdicts given though, just to prove this actually happened, They will all twist your mind but the Craigslist one is just unbelievable! I felt sorry for all the 'victims' in this book but, mostly, I feel sorry for 'Mark'.


This is the first book by this author I have read but it will not be the last.
If you like TrueCrime then this is one I definitely recommend you don't miss,

A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review, I voluntarily read this book, and the comments here are my honest opinion,

Merissa
Archaeolibrarian I Dig Good Books! The stories in the book are wellpaced and suspenseful, using effective fiction narrative techniques, but at the same time written with empathy and heart.
Short but grimly fascinating. Frightening. Wellwritten and compelling interesting twists, turns, and cliffhangers at the conclusion of each chapter, Author displays detailed knowledge of the laws and evolution of safeguards created to prevent stalking, Twisted true crime!

I think of all the Eileen Ormsby books, this one has been my favorite.
That fact that she uses a real editor makes the books even more enjoyable! You jump down the rabbit hole with this one as you get to see great insight and get to know not only the victim but also the stalker and it is definitely an eye opener in all the cases.
The way the people spiral out of control or how in control they are of what they are doing is at times baffling.
I think the story of Mark amp John blew my mind the most and I can't believe I hadn't heard of it before, but also The Craiglist one was a mind bend and took a bit to wrap my head around.


I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review, A good insight into the motivations and mental state of the crimes committed, It doesn't overload you with information it has the perfect a!out to keep you reading, .
