Try the zodiac, by Robert Graysmith. I got mine off ebay. It is a true account of a serial killer, that played games with authorities. Claimed 37 murders, and was never caught. Each chapter goes in depth on how each victim was killed.

"Exquisite Corpse" by Poppy Z. Brite, "Battle Royale" by Koushun Takami, "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, and "The Red Dragon" by Thomas Harris are all pretty violent... If you want gore, I'd also suggest "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston, which is about the Ebola virus.

In the Lake of the Woods by Tim O'Brien is pretty violent. O'Brien writes in evidence and hypothesis sections. The book is about a viet nam veteran/politician who may or may not have boiled his wife to death. The book goes back to the man's days in Mi Lai and the atrocities that occured there.

The Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger. He served in WWI and apparently enjoyed it. Those killings really happened, too.

I've heard lots of things about "A Child Called It" or something like that. I haven't gotten around to reading it.
I just Googled it to make sure I got the title right and it's a true story! I'm so going to Barnes & Noble now.

Chuck Palahniuks book "Haunted" is probably the most graphic book I have ever read.
