I'm looking forward to book 6 as well. It's been a long time coming. I'm wondering though, if there's to be a book 7, how many more years we'll be waiting for that? I'm hoping beyond hope that Martin will surprise us all and finish out the series before I'm dead and buried.

One that I enjoyed many years ago was called
The Sleeping Lady: The story of David Carpenter, aka "The Trailside Killer" by Robert Graysmith. I've noticed over the years since the early 80's that he is rarely if ever included in conversations about notorious serial killers, yet he was definitely among the worst of the lot. Not THE worst, but close. Quite an engrossing read nontheless.
It's out of print now but I see you can order a used copy from amazon and other places, or if you're a library-goer you'll no doubt find it there.
