Now, I had just cheered someone who hated the whole Molok theme of this book. And I still stand by that cheer. To introduce a new narrator in a series like this does detract somewhat from the essence of what Detxter is all about.
But, I really love the exploration of what makes Dex tick and the crimes and clues in the book make sense. And Dex’s friendship with Vince has some real buddy moments that remind me of Lethal Weapon- if Leathel Weapon was made by the E! network.
The role of Dex’s soon to be step-kids has some really classic moents involing Sgt. Debbie- but some things like the kidnapping gets a real Disney-like ending. I just don’t think that could really happen in real life.
Out of the 3 books (so far…) this is the least of the bunch. But, Dex is such a great character- I just couldn’t put it down. So, I give it a worth consuming!

At this point I’ve seen two seasons of the showtime series of dexter and I enjoy that far more than the three books. The first book was great but when this one started talking about a 3000 year old evil god I kind of lost interest. I’d like it to be about more than that.
