Dexter's Final Cut - Jeff Lindsay
I know that there are a lot of fans of the TV show (myself included) and the book series that served as the original source material for the show now has released another book. If you didn't know, the TV show does not follow these books, aside from the first season. Characters that may be dead in the TV show are alive in the books, and vice versa.
IMO, the books generally have been much weaker than most of the TV series.

The books have definitely been weaker than the TV series. Honestly, alot of them read like 300 page Law and Order episodes. I do like the subplots that Astor & Cody have though.
That being said I still read and enjoy the books. Thanks for posting this. I didn't know a new book was coming out.

Re: Dexter's Final Cut - Jeff Lindsay
Then how do you explain the following? Hmmmmm???
"Jeff Lindsay's razor sharp, devish wit, and immaculate pacing prove that he is in a class of his own, and this new novel is his most masterful creation yet".
Surely you're not suggesting that book publishers resort to hyperbole for their blurbs? That would be like suggesting that authors get compensated for providing endorsements for books they haven't even read!

Finished the book. It was...interesting. A bit different than I expected, and it clearly is leading up to the next book. Overall, not a bad effort, especially considering some previous works.
