    Series 7 is on the way! Dexter-Thon.

    I really liked this series :D , I watched it all on saturday, I liked Ray Stevenson who I first saw in James Nesbitt's Murphy's Law and Yvonne Strahovski who I haven't seen before. (She was in The iller Elite, apparently.) 4/5

    False Friends -Stephen Leather
    The most wanted man in the world is dead. Now those loyal to him seek revenge.

     

    When Navy Seals track down and kill Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, it's obvious there was a traitor on the inside. After the false friends are revealed to be two British students - former islamic fundamentalists recruited by MI5 - they become targets themselves.

    Dan 'Spider' Shepherd much teach the pair how to survive undercover with al- Qaeda closing in. But Spider is not used to playing the handler. And with the line between mentor and friend beginning to blur, and a terrorist plot putting thousands of lives at stake, can he protect everyone before it's too late?

    Well I started the first chapter, which appears to be 453 pages long! :o I'm on page 70.
    It's okay so far except for Spider's commemt about, How the British wouldn't shoot the No.1 target in the world even if unarmed.

    A  few mentions, 'Birmingham is the UK's biggest city and if it's in the firing line there are plenty of targets, from The Council House in Victoria Square to tower blocks, department stores, stations, hotels. And, as the city is slap bang in the middle of the country, there are plenty of escape routes.'

    Who'd want to escape from Birmingham?

    I quite enjoyed it
