Dexter's Final Cut

A Novel

De: Jeff Lindsay

Narrado por: Jeff Lindsay

Lights. Camera. Murder. Take a wild ride through Hollywood with “the first serial killer who unabashedly solicits our love” (Entertainment Weekly)—the character that inspired the latest Showtime hit series Dexter: Resurrection.

“Gory? Yes. Appalling? Absolutely! Funny? Amazingly so!”—Los Angeles Times

Mega-star Robert Chase is famous for losing himself in his characters. When he and a group of fellow actors descend on the Miami Police Department for “research,” Chase becomes fixated on Dexter Morgan, the blood spatter analyst with a sweet tooth and seemingly average life.

Chase shadows Dexter’s every move, trying to learn what makes him tick. However, Dexter’s favorite pastime of hunting down the worst killers who’ve escaped legal prosecution—and introducing them to his special brand of justice—presents, well, a bit of a problem. It’s a secret best kept out of the spotlight if Dexter wants to stay out of the electric chair, but even Dexter isn’t immune to the call of fame. . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

Killer Acclaim for Jeff Lindsay's DEXTER novels:

"Lindsay just keeps getting better. His stories are wonderfully fresh." --USA Today

"One of the most likable vigilante serial killers in recent thriller literature."--The New Yorker

"Gory? Yes. Appalling? Absolutely! Funny? Amazingly so!"--Los Angeles Times

"Totally captivating. . . . Totally original. The characters are beautifully drawn, particularly Dexter, who is tremendously likable, his hobby notwithstanding."--St. Petersburg Times

"Maybe the first serial killer who unabashedly solicits our love."—Entertainment Weekly

"The real appeal of this macabre tour-de-force is Dexter's sardonic voice, so snappy and smart, and yet so full of self-loathing that we hate ourselves for laughing."—The New York Times Book Review

"It's like very little else you've read. Imagine if Hannibal Lecter starred in CSI: Miami instead of David Caruso, and you're halfway there.”—Time

"Just when you think (hope?) that the tired and rarely credible device of the serial killer next door has hit a wall, along comes a writer like Jeff Lindsay to prove you wrong." –Chicago Tribune

The book that made me dislike Dexter :(

The story was fine. My only dislike was Dexter was willing to throw away everything for a Hollywood actress. It just seemed like something Dexter wouldn’t do. I hope the last book will be able redeem one of my favorite characters.

My least favorite in the series.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the Dexter series; however, I found this one to be predictable, so I finished it more out of obligation than desire. I'm not sure if this is the correct term, but the story seemed to follow a formula or pattern present in past Dexter books. That being said, I'm still going to get Dexter is Dead because I am a loyal fan and hope hope he really mixes things up for the final book.

eh

worst of the whole series. very predictable
still enjoyed the other books to get to this one

hated the ending

really wanted a better outcome, was my favorite Dexter book until last 2.5 hours, then it went a whole different direction.
