Product Description

Product Description

Whatever someone's idea of torture, the objective is always pain and suffering, and mankind long ago discovered the easiest way to accomplish a difficult task is to use the correct tool. Here readers will find over 25 mechanisms invented exclusively for the infliction of pain and the ending of life, each carefully researched with an accompanying full-color rendering.


About the Author

A chronic tinkerer, he has always been interested in all things mechanical and has the leftover screws to prove it. He holds degrees in Anthropology and English and lives in Atlanta in a house without a dungeon (unfortunately).

2.0 out of 5 stars Bog standard gear, 10 Oct 2009
Nothing new, just bog standard medieval torture gear. If you have an interest in the subject then there's nothing new to see or read about.
