Darkly Dreaming Dexter / Jeffry P. Lindsay / 288 pages

Several years ago, I was able to get 3 months of free Showtime, and I began watching the first season of Dexter.  Sadly the preview ended and I was unable to watch the remaining seasons.  The TV series followed this book pretty faithfully.  As I listened to the author's narration, I remembered all the dark humor that drew me to the TV series.  I love the premise of a serial murderer who only kills other serial murderers, and this novel took Dexter through a number of twists and turns to explore his deadly dark personality.  The word play is fun to listen to and Dexter's questioning of his own sanity is humorous in a dark way.  I would highly recommend this book.
