If you are like me, and on the go, no time to read an entire book. Finally, Graysmith’s Zodiac Unmasked is on Audio Book, perfect if you are on the go

Is it really worth reading now we know the author invented quite a lot of stuff?
That’s a fair question.
Thanks for the heads up Morf and have the first one on audio. I like to listen to them when I go to sleep at times. Ps. looks like I will take advantage of the free trial and mostly likely cancel after.

That’s the reason I decided to not read Graysmith’s books.
I don’t want facts and misinformation mixed together in my memory. After awhile it gets hard to recall which is which. For instance, sometimes I’ll have to ask myself "wait, do I know that’s true or am I remembering that from the Zodiac movie?"
Zodiac was a screwup. He left behind five breathing victims, two survivors, bootprints, possibly fingerprints and palmprints, tiretracks, eyewitnesses, and earwitnesses. If the APB had gone out for a WMA he would have been locked up in ’69.
Listen to ten minutes of it and sounds like Graysmith had homosexual feelings for ALA. I’m done and prefer his first audio book Zodiac,

I know precisely what you mean!
The first interest I had in the Z case was because of that darn yellow book! I felt like a fool when I got on my first Z site (which I will not name here) and started spouting things from that book. I had to work hard to forget all the misinformation in that thing. How SAD that this guy could have been the one to solve the case years ago if he just would have stuck to the facts. I still wonder to this day WHY he didn’t!! Such a shame!
Don’t know for this book but I have to say that I got into Zodiac precisely after listening the yellow book as audio book. It was really well narrated and I basically just couldn’t stop listening to it. Still think that regardless of the problems these books have, they can potentially "lure in" someone new to the case.
What use is this? Reading about Star aka Allen.
Off-topic, but I’d like to read a book about the Golden State Killer that was written before he was captured. Now that we know who he is, it would be interesting to see what police and online sleuths got right and what they got wrong.

Hunting a Psychopath by Richard Shelby is pretty riveting.
