    Review


    Dexter Morgan isn't exactly the kind of man you'd bring home to your mum. At heart, he's the perfect gentleman: he has a shy girlfriend, and seems to lead a quiet, normal life bordering on the mundane. Despite the fact that he can't stand the sight of blood, he works as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police. But Dexter also has a secret hobby: he is an accomplished serial killer. So far, he's killed 36 people and has never been caught because he knows exactly how to hide the evidence. And while that may lead some people to assume he's not such a nice guy, he tempers his insatiable hunger for brutality by only killing the bad guys. However, Dexter's well-organised life is suddenly disrupted when a second, much more visible serial killer appears in Miami. Intrigued that the other killer favours a style similar to his own, Dexter soon realises that the mysterious new arrival is not simply invading his turf but offering him a direct invitation to 'come out and play'...

    Dearly Devoted Dexter is the second book btw, not Dexter in the Dark

    I tried reading Dexter in the Dark straight after watching the first season, but gave up because it was pretty much verbatim...
    It may still be worth reading though, as there is a death in it which doesn't happen in the series

    Good find OP

    The other books are completely different from the TV series.

    Which Easons did you see them in? They seem to be full price in O'Connell St (Dublin) and the sales assistant knew nothing about them being on offer

    Easons don't seem to have a nationwide pricing system for reduced or "special offer" items Couldn't believe the price differences between Eason in Mahon and Easons in Patrick street today:confused:
