Dexter in the Dark


I consider myself a fan of the Jeff Lindsay's Dexter series. It has a wonderful premise and it's witty.

In this third installment, Dexter kinda lost his "shadow"; the Dark Passenger. The Dark Passenger was scared out of its wits. Dexter lost his cool. He now felt emotions. He felt fear.

It was a little bit of a let down. Take note, I said a little bit. In addition to the first person perspective of Dexter, there were other perspectives in the novel. I think there were three; Dexter's, the Watcher, and the narrator, written in italics.

It also had a feel of the supernatural. It says that Dexter's Dark Passenger came from a supernatural entity and not psychological. Psychological would have been a lot better.

All in all, it was still entertaining.
