Publisher's summary

“Like a breath of fresh air blowing across all crime-novel conventions, there is Dexter.” —Time

Dexter Morgan is not your average serial killer. He enjoys his day job as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department . . . but he lives for his nighttime hobby of hunting other killers. Dexter is therefore not pleased to discover that someone is shadowing him, observ­ing him, and copying his methods. Dexter is not one to tol­erate displeasure . . . in fact, he has a knack for extricating himself from trouble in his own pleasurable way.

Like the previous five best-selling novels in the Dexter series, Double Dexter showcases the witty, macabre origi­nality that has propelled Jeff Lindsay to international suc­cess. Double Dexter is raucously entertaining . . . full of smart suspense and dark laughs.

Best Dexter so far

In my opinion this is the best Dexter novel so far. The storyline great and paced well. It was unique from the other novels to keep you interested yet familiar enough that made it very easy to listen and follow.

Jeff Lindsay narrated and it was excellent. He really did a good job with all the characters.

Overall if you liked the other Dexter novels, or perhaps you use to like the older Dexter novels until he digressed with the last couple - this one is excellent and has the same feeling that the first couple novels had.

Great book.

Even though, Dexter seems to be getting a little be dumber, the book still great. I'm definitely still getting the next one. Well recommended.

Dumb Dexter

Would you try another book from Jeff Lindsay and/or Jeff Lindsay?

Worst Dexter story ever. Predictable. Dexter has a bad case of the stupids. I was so frustrated with the story as I could figure it out by the end of the first quarter of the story. I did however finally get my reward for sticking with it and the last 2 or 3 chapters were great.

Would you be willing to try another book from Jeff Lindsay? Why or why not?

Sure.

Was Double Dexter worth the listening time?

Frustrating.

pretty good, but still doesn't top my favourite

Jeff Lindsay is a very talented writer, and I've enjoyed these books very much, and I certainly can't wait to see how it all wraps up! I will say though, this wasn't my favourite. I was really hoping that Brian would be in it more, just like the previous book. And Dearly Devoted Dexter will always be my favourite of the series. All and all, it was an enjoyable story.

One of the Best in the Series!

Would you consider the audio edition of Double Dexter to be better than the print version?

I've not read the print edition, however this is my second favourite Dexter adventure. It was well written and well performed!

What did you like best about this story?

Dexter was NOT in control! He was being led, instead of leading.

Which scene was your favorite?

Tortuga. I don't want to give away too much, so I will leave it at that.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I didn't intend it....but I did!

Any additional comments?

To me, the Dexter saga climaxes with this story. The next in the series was a bit of a disappointment. I am looking forward to the concluding story...Dexter is Dead.

Excellent

I have been going through this series non stop. I loved the showtime show but the books... chefs kiss. And what makes it even better is the author narrates the books so you can really get into the stories and feel what the author is portraying. Most excellent. Now onto the next!

Loved it!

Couldn't stop listening to it. I love the Dexter TV series and the books are just as good. This one was full of suspense and very exciting. A must listen for Dexter fans.

Dexter is the best

What made the experience of listening to Double Dexter the most enjoyable?

Der Autor liest das Buch selber, somit kann er ihm seine Note (wie er das geschriebe Wort meint) vermitteln.

What does Jeff Lindsay bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Seinen Humor
