Second installment down! Happily, it was as easy & enjoyable to,plow through as the first. I still hold firm to my belief that Dexter is one of the best characters in modern writing. This book finds Dexter & his Dark Passenger tangling with & even admiring the handiwork of a monster even more horrific than he is.

A good modern Western
It's not a classic but it is a very good film. Jeff bridges is great as the old wiley Sheriff coming up to retirement. He has one last case to crack tracking down some bank robbers.

Contains spoilers, click to show
Yes this yes this is aimed at young adults but I am enjoying it. Spoiler here, if you have to go explain to you children the film of ET, then get them to read this book as it is written on a very similar theme but in the modern era. Go on read it.

I did enjoy it but cringed at some of the visual effects, well it was nearly twenty years ago, but what made it interesting for me were the amount of modern day Hollywood actors who were obviously younger, you would not get them all together in todays film as the budget would not be there.

Well done presenting the history of this storyline and portraying the conflicting ideologies minorities face in light of history, present, and future. Hard not to leave this movie without thinking about modern social issues, yet these were not “in your face” throughout the movie - ie not forced. The powerful female characters were breathtaking and refreshing!!!
