Title: Rooting For the Bad Guy
Review: Dexter brings us a new and rather novel bad guy. On first glance it seems normal enough, another police detective book where Dexter works as a forensic invesitgator for the Miami Police.Staright forward enough, with one minor wrinkle, He takes his work home with him as a hobby - he is also a serial killer. But a serial killer with a sense of morality, killing people who have otherwise escaped justice.He is a brilliant sociopath, a mix of the Lone rnager meets the Marquis de Sade, and yet thorughout you find yourslef wanting him to figure how he will deal with his secret and keep it hidden, while working through the problems he faces tracking killers and trying to be as normal as possible.It is different from the show (I have watched the first season of the show on DVD, and it is also good), and the differences makes it worthwhile to read even if you have seen the show.
