24th Sept - Forever?
Oh my, isn't he just. I absolutely love how Jeff Lindsay writes, his use of a pithy one liner is second to none and for someone that hates horror he makes blood and gore completely acceptable by ensuring that they are secondary to his fantastic characters and sharp, sharp dialogue. Am a complete fan and he could write tosh on the back of a cereal box and I'd lap it up. But only if it was a stunning as his Dexter stuff. Dexter is dragging. I know I don't have the head space for much at the moment but I had honestly thought that I would be so sucked in my Dexter that all the crap that is going on in my head would shut up enough for me to read. Not so. It just doesnt seem to have the deft touch that I have come to expect, in places it is positively heavy handed, almost as if it has been, dare I say, dumbed down? Will battle on because the end is in sight but frankly it cant come a page too soon.
