Pros: A killer up against Dexter who's creepier than he is. That takes some doing. Cons: Not a one. One of the best thrillers out there these days.
Today, I had a period of time that had to be spent waiting, and so I turned (as nearly always) to a book. I had been waiting for an opportunity to sit down and take in the second book in Jeff Lindsay's ongoing series about a very unusual person by the ...
Pros: Lindsay's composition and surgical wit render Dexter's running soliloquy unparalleled. Cons: Stop looking at the clock... there's no way you can put this book down.

Pros: Compelling Cons: Stomach turning descriptions of violence.
Serial killers are usually the frightening stalkers of psychological thrillers unseen until its too late, their minds incomprehensible to most as everyone tries to come to grips with the results of their unspeakable crimes. The reader never gets ...
Pros: Gruesome, dark gallows humor and witty observation abounds. Cons: Just not as good as the TV version.
As noted in my review of the first Dexter novel, I’ve been turning to the book series to tide me over while waiting for the next season of “Dexter” to come out on DVD. So far, the book versions have been surprisingly inferior to ...
Pros: Our favorite serial killer with ethics, consistent writing style, and characteristic Lindsay ironies & wit Cons: Not as psychologically engaging as Darkly Dreaming Dexter
Darkly Dreaming Dexter, the first book in this series about Dexter Morgan, a blood spatter expert for the Miami Police Department and a serial killer, is a hard act to follow. The first book creates a unique, interesting character and world for us to ...
