Normally, I find these books to be fun, fast, reads - a bit goofy, but entertaining. For Steve Valentine, life is very good. It is also almost over. Stephen King Value Collection. It's one thing when a character is a misogynist, which I could totally believe of Dexter, but it's entirely another when I can't find any evidence that the writer thinks this is a bad thing. But yeah, I had to take off a star for his unforgivable dullness through much of this book. Books by Jeff Lindsay. Luckily, however, it is only the Dark Passenger who writes like a twelve year old girl addicted to purple ink. He has played with at least three young boys that we know about and probably more. It just didn't ring true to me. I like TV Rita. Dexter Is Dead. I think the Shadow being eaten by a shark is an accurate representation of what has happened in this book.

Steve Valentine is a happy man; things have gone his way a lot lately and he thinks they have gone his way again tonight.

Double Dexter is more focused on Dexter, his marriage and whether Dexter the serial killer will be discovered. He enjoys his day job as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department. The standard arc is present - Miami serial killer to catch, someone finds out Dexter's killer identity, then it's a game of cat and mouse to see which killer finds the other one first. In only a few moments these dark and silent clouds will shatter the silence of the night with the unbearable bright omnipotence of their might and blast the darkness into flickering shards—and then, only then, the release will come. Cody and Astor are nice side characters, Doakes is clumping along menacingly, and good ole sis, Deborah is toned-down. Soon—but not now, not yet. You have Rita thinking that Dexter's cheating, because he's always disappearing and coming home sweaty.

Noticeably, characters long dead on the show are alive in the books, characters know more or less about Dexter than they do in the show, major characters on the show are very minor characters here and vice versa, and personalities are starkly different. I love his struggles to fit in with society and to try and read human emotions since he freely admits to not having any. Even his Dark Passenger seems to be bored at times with Dexter playing house.

And a shattering blast of lightning shreds the dark night and shows a large and soft-looking man scuttling across the ground, as if he, too, has felt the dark breath so close behind. And he smiles, a smile of small triumph, something he does a lot these days. One more burst of lightning; the man is very close now, clutching his burden and holding a car key in the air. Stephen King Value Collection. On the other hand, the description of their first day in Key West was hilarious.

Dexter studies the witness' blog, finding no clues other than his ex-wife's first initial. All in all, the book was okay, but it doesn't inspire me to pick up what I missed or to wait breathless for the next in the series. He is wrong. Christopher Farnsworth. He is really trying to get into the family life as he sees it. Dexter by Design Dexter Series 4. I hope this was supposed to be a device to show that routine was important to Dexter and any deviation throws him off badly, but this just came off as ignorant, misogynistic whining. Rita is behaving very oddly, and Camilla Figg—always in the background, never any details—is also acting in a most peculiar manner, mangling her sentences even more than Rita most of the time. The Dexter series has certainly gotten better with age. Michael Harvey. Steve Valentine is a clown. Double Dexter is Jeff Lindsay's completely new, wickedly entertaining novel.

Yes, Doakes hates Dexter very fiercely, but simply killing the witness doesn't solve problems without creating more. As an upstanding blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department, he has always managed to keep the darker side of his life out of the spotlight Sure enough, there are just some really, really annoying things about Dexter in print as opposed to Dexter on screen. Meh, I'll never know. Dexter Is Delicious Dexter Series 5. There are colleagues with secret Dexter shrines, Cub Scout camping trips, and the ever-present Sergeant Doakes seriously dude, just go away! Like any self-respecting, totally decent, soundly homicidal guy, Dexter Morgan takes great pride in his work and is careful to remain anonymous.
