The 2nd book in the Dexter series goes in a completely opposite direction than the television series - which was refreshing. I enjoyed the 2nd book a bit more than the first - the antagonist seemed a little more threatening to Dexter than that of the 1st. Add half a star to the 4 stars I have listed...

It's the taking of the eyelids and propping them in front of a mirror, in addition to reducing a human being to a torso, that really cranks it to eleven. There's something viscerally...

Much better for a number of reasons. Although I still don't understand the point of Deborah. She really is a ditzy mess with zero redeeming qualities. Dexter is much more conflicted in this novel as he deals with his frustrations being shadowed by Doakes. The tension is well done and there are t...
