Dan Wells is close friends with Brandon Sanderson, one of my favourite authors, so many of my web searches often turned up interviews with Brandon Sanderson telling the world just how good an author Dan Wells is. I'd heard a lot about this book before I finally got the chance to read it. Perhaps that’s what gives him the clarity to recognize that something is frighteningly different about the freshest body on the slab.įor the first time, John must confront a danger outside his own mind, a threat he cannot control, a menace to everything and everyone he would love, if only he could. They don’t ask for the empathy he’s unable to offer. Having grown up helping his mom at the family mortuary, dead bodies are no big deal to John. Yet terrible impulses constantly tempt him. Obsessed with serial killers, he never wants to be one. John Wayne Cleaver is dangerous, and he knows it. He sets strict rules to keep himself “good” and “normal,” but when a real monster shows up in his town he has to let his dark side out in order to stop it–but without his rules to keep him in check, he might be more dangerous than the monster he’s trying to kill. I Am Not A Serial Killer is the story of John Cleaver, a 15-year-old sociopath who works in a mortuary, dreams about death, and thinks he might be turning into a serial killer.
