Lindsay's serial killer returns in Dearly Devoted Dexter

by telynor telynor is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 26 '08
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 ...

Dearly Devoted Dexter - Jeff Lindsay's Dark Avenger Is A Funny Funny Man

by rkingfish rkingfish is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, , May 20 '08
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.
Since I’ve never spoken with an analyst in a professional capacity, my obsession with certain authors may or may not be regarded as a compulsion. When I discovered the existence of Donald E. Westlake, the undisputed master of the comic crime novel, ...

"DEARLY DEVOTED DEXTER" DUELS DEEPLY DISTURBED DR. DANCO

by mike.holmes mike.holmes is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 27 '08
Pros: Great writing about a killer who is the good guy
Cons: A little too graphic at times
Don't you just love alliteration? Jeff Lindsay continues to describe his truly original "hero", Dexter Morgan with a series of alliterative nicknames. This is the second "Dexter" book (the first being "Darkly Dreaming Dexter") which continues the ...

Dearly Devoted Dexter by Jeff Lindsay

by damieng , Dec 12 '07
Pros: Compelling
Cons: Stomach turning descriptions of violence.
Serial killers are usually the frightening stalkers of psychological thrillers unseen until it’s 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 ...

Dramatically Different Dexter

by disinclined Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 29 '08
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 ...

Dearly Devoted Dexter for Dearly Devoted Readers

by swopedesign , Nov 27 '08
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 ...
