I wish I could say that this is a fantastic third instalment of Jeff Lindsay’s Dexter series but I’d be lying. Somewhere along the line Lindsay decided it would be interesting to take Dexter into the realms of supernatural and biblical mythology which completely goes against the original reason why I love Dexter.

All the characteristics that make Dexter who he is, his logical outlook on life and how best to fit in and play nicely all goes down the drain when the idea that he might be possessed by demons comes into play.

A disappointing read. I can only hope the fourth book will be better.

Desiree' I have to agree with you. The first two books I could hardly put down, but I have found myself a few weeks into this third book and I just can't seem to finish it. It's disappointing.

Synesthesia Ugh. Christian mythology? That's all over the place.
They better not do that in the show...


Sean I couldn't agree with your review more. This one was hard to get through...
