    2.75 3 starsI decided to pick this book up after watching Zodiac which was completely enthralling, however this was not the case for this book.The book was definitely well researched as it contains information from various sources,witnesses and reports.The book goes into extreme detail which was interesting at times but most of the time, it was just too much.It feels as if Robert Graysmith just dumped all of his findings into the book without editing anything.Some of the details feel completely [...]

    Let s say you re a serial killer Now let s say what gets you off than anything except your killings, is to taunt the cops with letters that mock their inability to catch you You, of course, do not want to be caught, but there is always the possibility Now let s say you just happen to work at a famous newspaper, one of the papers to which you like to send your letters How lucky for you, or how wonderfully designed, because as a member at the paper you are insinuated into the investigation, givin [...]

    It s sad to say that I dnf d this with 40 pages left 40 pages left and I couldn t be bothered to finish I think the reason why is because there isn t an ending We all know the Zodiac was never caught so why am I intruiged to know how it ends I mean it had a promising start It was gripping, detailed, talked about victims and the letters But like halfway through it started to get dull No suspects had been announced Most letters were being credited as hoaxes There were no victims I had half the bo [...]

    Would you believe that I was unfamiliar with the Zodiac killer until last week I mean I knew that there was a serial killer who went by the name, but I didn t know anything at all about the details of the murders or the killer himself I had never even seen the movie I think that this ignorance kind of benefited me I skimmed some of the other reviews for this book, and I see a lot of complaints about the fact that Graysmith included every single detail But I didn t even notice this My not knowing [...]

    Things to keep in mind before you read this 1 Have you seen the movie Because going by reviews here, if you see the movie first, you won t like the book I suspect because people can t grasp the idea that the movie can get away with in the name of entertainment than something sitting on the True Crime shelves can This is true crime, not fiction based on a real event Also, the movie covers things in the author s real life, which the book isn t about to do They re just different Stop being that pe [...]

    To read or not to read Zodiac, that is the question Regardless of what some say, no one knows who the Zodiac was No it s not Ted Cruz, sit down internet conspiracy theorists I feel like this is bait Ain t nobody got time for that.

    The facts of the Zodiac case are like the worst urban legends sprung to life As any true crime fanatic knows, real life is where the real nightmares come from and boy, did Zodiac make many nightmares reality He was the hooded executioner who tied up and pretended to rob a young couple, then came back to stab them over and over in front of each other, throwing their money and car keys back at them before leaving He rigged single women s cars so that their batteries would run down or their tires w [...]

    The writing style is a bit too dry for my taste, but the subject is so fascinating Enjoyed this book very much, loved how detailed and informative it was.

    I picked this up because I enjoyed the movie version and thought I d investigate the truth behind the Hollywoodization that is SO a word.I found this book very interesting, despite its somewhat uneven tone It s quite dry in places but, hey, it s journalism not fiction, so I m not expecting it to be Dickens.Ultimately, though, due to the fact that the Zodiac killer was never caught, it kind of peters out at the end, leaving one feeling rather unsatisfied Still, I m glad I read it.

    A very thorough recounting of the Zodiac killings and the long investigation, told by a newspaper cartoonist who became obsessed with the case and involved with the major players Graysmith lays out the known facts, reproduces the full text of the Zodiac letters for the first time, and conducts his own investigations of the major suspects.Man I d forgotten, but this is a hell of a story It reminds me not to be too hard on a lot of thrillers and cop shows, because in fact you cannot make this shit [...]

    I will admit, I picked up this book after seeing David Fincher s Zodiac I found the case both horrifying and intriguing and I knew I wanted to know The Zodiac murders happened long before I was born, but Robert Graysmith did a great job at laying out all the facts from the case in an easy to read format However, it was quite obvious that Graysmith was not a writer he was a cartoonist by the unpolished way that he writes at times I gave Zodiac four stars instead of five because the material coul [...]

    Be careful if you read this book It has a very high potential to get you addicted to the case and try to figure out who the Zode is.
    Paquita Maria Sanchez
    I m sure this was riveting and very convincing in the court of public opinion back when it came out, which must ve suuuuuucked for the accused I ll admit I have the benefit of things like hindsight and DNA testing and whatnot, but Graysmith just seemed so stuck on his Arthur Leigh Allen theory that it was almost like he wasn t willing to entertain any suspects or scenarios outside of it, at least at the time Circumstantial evidence is so dangerous, and that is essentially all this is Maybe A.L.A [...]

    I only want to say that despite the cynicism I ve gotten from friends, or the criticisms I read of this one, it is a great book that is uniquely interesting and thrilling and sparked great conversation around the board.

    What i really like about this book was how it was told and how it was layed out.Mr Graysmith was a Newspaper cartoonist who later became involved in the Zodiac case Not by his volition but, by the Zodiacs.He lays out the facts Gives you the time line and how things were investigated How things happened Precise and to the point.He includes reprints of the letters that the Zodiac sent to the police and newspaper Some of which to this day are unsolved and undecoded.what is good about this book is t [...]

    The Zodiac killings of the late 60s and 70s were some of the most notorious unsolved murders in the history of crime, comparable only to the Jack the Ripper murders Not only were the murders gruesome on their own, but behind these slaughters was a psychotic genius who managed to escape capture by the police up until this very day His taunting and braggadocious letters to the police and newspapers of California are legendary, having been dissected and studied by investigators for answers, to no a [...]

    I don t think you can watch the film adaptation and remain unmoved by Graysmith s story and his obsessive quest to uncover the identity of the Zodiac killer There was no question that I had to read his book Graysmith was a cartoonist by occupation, not a journalist, and it shows He makes the number one blunder of any amateur writer of either fiction or non fiction he tries to include every last detail Graysmith s obsession with the Zodiac killer means every minutiae of the case is deemed critica [...]

    A few months ago, there was a guy who used to jump over my walls and spy on me He even masturbated at my porch, sometimes, as he was seeing me study late at night, through my window shutters Sometimes, he knocked on my windows and whispered things that he would like to do with me I had curtains put on my windows and contracted a home surveillance service I have an old bitch at home, but she never alarmed me of his presence We tried to catch him a few times, but he always ran before we had the ch [...]

    2.5 stars, rounded to 3 for hometown bias The merciless statistics might show that I started this book in 2011, but while yes, I am a slow reader, I m not that slow I wasn t on the page a day diet, rather I threw this book aside numerous times for months on end out of sheer frustration, but always determined to come back to it It Was A Slog The thing with true crime, sometimes you get lucky and Truman Capote writes one, but that s not the rule I have genuine admiration for what Robert Graysmith, [...]

    The crimes themselves are fascinating I cannot say the same for this book Perhaps it s because I read it on the heels of an exquisitely written true crime story.
    Josh Auerbach
    I don t normally do a review after finishing books but I thought this was a fantastic read I would highly recommend to anyone interested in the subject matter.
    Jack Saxon
    I wanted to love this book so badly I m fascinated by everything Zodiac, and the book is a major source if not THE source for almost everything It s the seed that grew into the massive Oak However, I just don t like how it s written I can appreciate the research, but the style is just not for me Thank you Mr Graysmith for doing the legwork.
    Trin
    I m really rather embarrassed to have read this, but the recent film all thirteen hours of it sufficiently intrigued me Graysmith, as several people cautioned me, is not a very good writer he has an odd tendency to sensationalize not especially sensational moments, and then describe parts that are naturally fantastic or terrifying in a strangely flat tone In a way it served as a compliment to David Fincher, who included some legitimately nail biting scenes in his 26 hour long adaptation It s int [...]

    I have read this book years ago.Trying to add some books on Shelfari I discovered I had never registered this book on BC.From Library JournalFrom 1968 to the early 1970s, the self styled Zodiac killer made headlines in the San Francisco Bay Area In random attacks, he is known to have murdered six persons in a series of letters to newspapers, which sometimes included cryptograms, he boasted of many To this day, the infamous case remains unsolved and surprisingly little has been written about it [...]

    I have a great fascination with the turbulent history and weirdness that was the California bay area during the 60 s and 70 s Beatniks, hippies, Sonny Barger and the Hells Angels, the Black Panthers, the S.L.A, riots and civil unrest, SF evolving from hippie mecca to homosexual mecca, multitudes of nutty political and religious groups, and way too much other lunacy for me to list Even today in spite of the yuppification of the area you can still feel the ghosts of the past in the air On top of a [...]

    Zodiac by Robert GraysmithIt what reads like a collection of small collections of thoughts about various aspects of the Zodiac kills, Graysmith gives his opinions about the case He should be commended for being the first to bring most of the information together, but his narrative of the events is in no way a true narrative It jumps around too much.I found the topic to be interesting, but the book was poorly written Graysmith is truly passionate about the identity of the killer, and he should b [...]
    Alice Rogatto
    Excelent research by Robert Graysmith At the beginning the book can make the reader tired due to the extreme levels of information and the lacking of tone However, as the story goes on, and especially after Zodiac starts to disappear, we can feel the frustration with the case Also, the peak of the book, in my opinion, is the description of each of the major suspects The book then gets a very somber light, and the frustration from the lack of only one clear suspect gets even stronger Highly recom [...]
