Four decades after it first shook the nation, then the world, William Peter Blatty's thrilling masterwork of faith and demonic possession returns in an even more powerful form.

Story
In April of 1846, 21-year-old Sarah Graves, intent on a better future, set out west from Illinois with her new husband, her parents, and eight siblings. Seven months later, after joining a party of pioneers led by George Donner, they reached the Sierra Nevada Mountains as the first heavy snows of the season closed the pass ahead of them. In early December, starving and desperate, Sarah and 14 others set out for California on snowshoes and over the next 32 days endured almost unfathomable hardships and horrors.

One of our best-loved actors, Michael Caine has starred in over 100 films in his six-decade career, spanning classic movies like Alfie, Zulu, and The Italian Job (the inspiration for the book title) to playing Alfred opposite Christian Bale's Batman in Christopher Nolan's blockbuster Dark Knight trilogy. Caine has excelled in every kind of role - with a skill that's made it look easy. As he says, "Small parts can lead to big things. And if you keep doing things right, the stars will align when you least expect it."

With nothing but the clothes on his back - and something horrific snapping at his heels - Jack Winter fled his rural Georgia home when he was just a boy. Watching the world he knew vanish in a trucker’s rearview mirror, he thought he was leaving an unspeakable nightmare behind forever. Now, years later, the bright new future he’s built suddenly turns pitch black, as something fiendishly familiar looms dead ahead. Surviving a violent car crash seems like a miracle for Jack’s family, but Jack knows there’s nothing divine about it.

Cults prey on the very attributes that make us human: our desire to belong, to find a deeper meaning in life, to live everyday with divine purpose. Their existence creates a sense that any one of us, at any time, could step off the cliff’s edge and fall into that daunting abyss of manipulation and unhinged dedication to a misplaced cause. Perhaps it’s this mindset that keeps us so utterly obsessed and desperate to learn more, or it’s that the stories are so bizarre and unsettling that we are simply in awe of the mechanics that make these infamous groups tick.

In the 1950s a young Indianapolis minister named Jim Jones preached a curious blend of the Gospel and Marxism. His congregation was racially integrated, and he was a much-lauded leader in the contemporary civil rights movement. Eventually Jones moved his church, Peoples Temple, to Northern California. He became involved in electoral politics and soon was a prominent Bay Area leader.

Story
In the horrifying annals of American crime, the infamous names of brutal killers such as Bundy, Dahmer, Gacy, and Berkowitz are writ large in the imaginations of a public both horrified and hypnotized by their monstrous, murderous acts. But for every celebrity psychopath who's gotten ink for spilling blood, there's a bevy of all-but-forgotten homicidal fiends studding the bloody margins of US history.
Written by: Harold Schechter

Get your diapers on !
Honestly I'm biased because they make the best damn podcast around. I wasn't as much into podcast before a friend made me listen to them which I initially said "Can't stand the whiny one who does voices" but after a while I got to love Ben Kissel my giant god overlord ! Hail Kissel and most of all Hail yourselves

So good
If you are a LPOTL fan, you will love this book. And if you ARENT a fan, you will still love this book. It is a wealth of knowledge, expertly written, but somehow light and fun so not to terrify the reader. Let this be the only source you will ever need on the killers they discussed - it's that good. The boys nailed it and having them read the audiobook makes it even more special.

These guys know how to deliver a story that's excellently researched and manage to make some horrific topics super entertaining. It's definitely a bit awkward compared to the podcast, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and wish it didn't end!

I really enjoyed this book. It was well-researched and we'll written with funny commentary throughout to help with the depressing nature of serial killers, exactly like the podcast. I definitely would recommend this book to other true crime fans

Definitely does the podcast justice!
If you’re a fan of the boys and the podcast this book is for you. A wonderful deep dive into some of the major heavy hitters with added information and insight. I love the podcast and thoroughly enjoyed this book. Ben, Henry and Marcus do a terrific job of being informative, funny, respectful and bringing a light heartedness to some pretty heavy subject matter. A must read for all fans of the podcast and serial killer lore.

Spectacular true crime
I have listened to the podcast intermittently, because sometimes there's just so much yelling. This was the perfect fusion of the podcast and a book. Exquisitely researched, but still with the humour you've come to expect, I was sad when this was over, which is a super weird thing to say about a book with such deeply horrible things in it. A must read for true crime fans, even if you think you know about these killers.

A Must Listen for True Crime or Last Podcast Fans
It took a lot of effort for Mr. Parks to put together this book while maintaining his busy schedule with the Last Podcast network. His dedication and effort are on full display. Parks does not receive enough recognition for his approachable writing style that is entertaining and engaging. It's a large part of what makes the narrative portion of "The Last Podcast on the Left" so successful. Contained within the chapters are many of the heavy hitters of the serial killer world. You may have heard the stories of many of these monsters among men before. Still, the style and presentation make it worth spending time with the "Last Podcast" Trio. This is a goldmine of intriguing, disturbing, and entertaining content if you are new to the true-crime genre. Park's narrative genius comes through in both the writing and performance. I would like to hear a lot more from him in this format. What can I say about Zebrowski and Kissel - if you love them on "The Last Podcast on the Left," you will also love them here. Their signature humour and style are all over this one, adding comments and anecdotes to the more serious narrative woven by Parks. Last Podcast Team, you did not disappoint. This audiobook is definitely a must-have for your audiobook collection.
