    　　這大概是我看過最爆笑的黑色推理小說（雖然它一點也不像推理 小說），書中沒有任何讓人笑得出來的場景，但光是靠主角Dext er不自主的啐啐唸和身不由已的倒楣就讓我從頭笑到尾。

    　　身為一位警察的Dexter常常對那些法律無法制裁的罪犯私 下行刑，當然是在罪證確鏨的情況下偷偷把對方殺掉，雖然看起來是 個很有正義感的傢伙，但實際上確是另外一回事，Dexter的養 父在他小時候就發現他嗜殺的本性，所以從小就不斷告訴他「要殺人 可以，但要殺壞人」這個觀念，並且要求他在殺人之前要100%確 定對方是有罪的。

    　　而這本書中讓他身不由已的倒楣便是出自於此，他一直很想要殺 人，但卻被同事發現他行蹤怪異，這讓Dexter只好裝作普通人 生活，但要一個殺人狂活得像正常人他一定受不了，所以啐啐唸就此 爆發，他的OS真的很夠力，雖然碰到的案件都讓我噁心反胃，看到 被害者的刑警們個個面色凝重，有些刑警甚至衝出去吐，卻只有De xter一個人在旁邊內心激動不已（他是在稱讚犯罪手法乾淨俐落 到不行），當他high完後發現怎麼大家臉色都這麼難看，他才驚 覺到正常人的反應應該是很不舒服才對，所以他就假裝很焦慮地跑去 外頭抽煙掩飾XD

    　　不過看到被害者「要死不活」的描寫真的讓我有點反胃，要不是 主角內心不斷OS，我一定看不下去；Dexter在後半部還發現 女友的兒子也有嗜殺的本性，看他掛著天真無邪的笑容刺死活跳跳的 魚時，Dexter欣喜的發現自己有繼承人了……這是正常的反應 嗎，囧>

  • Più nero, cinico e molto più ironico del primo. Forse solo perché, avendoci già presentato i personaggi, l'autore non ha perso tempo nel descrivere le loro abitudini e ci ha immerso immediatamente nel mondo di Dexter, senza troppi preamboli o spiegazioni.

    Buona la trama e l'intreccio, soprattutto il modo con cui Dexter si ritrova legato a doppio filo alla sua copertura.
    Il futuro del nostro eroe sembra segnato!

  • Perhaps not quite as compelling as the first novel, but still immensely enjoyable. And the scene with Rita -- you know the one -- is worth the price of the book by itself.

  • Even better than Darkly Dreaming Dexter, if that's possible. Hilarious dark humor.

  • migliore del primo ma inferiore alla serieTV

  • Decisamente migliore del primo ma ancora inferiore alla serie televisiva, sebbene stavolta la serie e il libro seguano trame diverse. Ad ogni modo, molto divertente e pieno di battute di spirito. C'e del ripetitivo.

  • Scorrevole ma molto meno originale del primo. Per certi versi ripetitivo nelle continue introspezioni del protagonista e nel ribadire il suo punto di vista cinico e ostinatamente non-umano.

He’s a charming monster . . .

A macabre hero . . .

A serial killer who only kills bad people


Dexter Morgan has been under considerable pressure. It’s just not easy being an ethical serial killer—especially while trying to avoid the unshakable suspicions of the dangerous Sergeant Doakes (who believes Dexter is a homicidal maniac . . . which, of course, he is). In an attempt to throw Doakes off his trail, Dexter has had to slip deep into his foolproof disguise. While not working as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department, he now spends nearly all his time with his cheerful girlfriend, Rita, and her two children, sipping light beer and slowly becoming the world’s first serial couch potato. But how long can Dexter play Kick the Can instead of Slice the Slasher? How long before his Dark Passenger forces him to drop the charade and let his inner monster run free?

In trying times, opportunity knocks. A particularly nasty psychopath is cutting a trail through Miami—a man whose twisted technique leaves even Dexter speechless. As Dexter’s dark appetite is revived, his sister, Deborah (a newly minted, tough-as-nails Miami detective) is drawn headlong into the case. It quickly becomes clear that it will take a monster to catch a monster—but it isn’t until his archnemesis is abducted that Dex can finally throw himself into the search for a new plaything. Unless, of course, his plaything finds him first . . .

With the incredible wit and freshness that drew widespread acclaim to Darkly Dreaming Dexter, Jeff Lindsay now takes Dexter Morgan to a new level of macabre appeal and gives us one of the most original, colorful narrators in years.
