Jade Rating: 5/5.So which is better? The TV series or the books? I think each has its own merits and some relationships are more fitting on TV; others in the book. For example, I prefer Cody and Astor's mentality in the book as it is interesting to see Dexter's intrigue into their morbid inclinations and ultimately how he nurtures them. This book brings back Dexter's brother Brian Moser and you spend most of the book completely absorbed in his plan and why his sudden reappearance in Dexter's life. The intrigue and suspense is maintained throughout the book surrounding this intense relationship, and you really feel for Dexter as he appears to be struggling to maintain the illusion of normality with everyone trying to get a piece of him. You feel his stress and fear as Lindsay creates a wonderfully tense atmosphere throughout the book. The description of cannibalism is graphic and conjures scenes in your imagination that you will explore greedily.
Brilliant read and Lindsay is a fantastic author who sets the scene nicely and makes it a pleasurable read.
