Title: Dexter - all round lovable guy and serial killer. A very original novel
Review: I have to admit I had never heard of this novel before I watched the TV series "Dexter". I then got this to see how different the literary source was from what I'd seen on TV - and the answer was - not as different as I'd thought it might be.I can see why this novel has attracted attention. It's a mystery novel that breaks the accepted boundaries of "good guys" and "bad guys". I have to say though that I preferred the ending in the TV series to the book, but I'm happy to have read the book and it always bought a smile to my face when I recognised lines in the novel that had been lifted wholesale into the series. This is a dark book, but for the mystery genre it's also a rather startling and original work.Dexter - The First Season
