lastwish Posted July 10, 2013 Author Posted July 10, 2013 I would definitely recommed the Dexter series by Jeff Lindsay Thanks, I will have a look at series. I seen some TV series, didnt enjoy them much but book should be much better. Quote
Goodwich Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Do you like "humorous" serial killer books? If so, you might want to try Florida author Tim Dorsey. His main character, Serge Storms, is a hyperactive, compulsive historian of Florida's history, and drives around the state with his stoner friend Coleman, visiting various cultural landmarks (such as the hotel where the Beatles stayed in their first U.S. tour). Serge gets very irritated with the never-endling supply of drug dealers, bullies, jet skiers, environmental polluters and rednecks who populate the Sunshine State, and he find very ingenious, Rube Goldberg-esque ways to make the world a better place by ridding it of these vermin. There are about 15 books in the series, and most of them are hilarious. The series started before Dexter and I suspect that the latter series is somewhat influenced by the form. The first book, Florida Roadkill, isn't his best because Dorsey was working on the formula. By the third book he gets it down. I highly recommend it if you need a good laugh and want to let more about one of the strangest states in the U.S. Quote
saintmark Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Chelsea Cain writes a good series about a female serial killer that kind of fancies the leading police investigator. Quote
UnderTheDome40 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I have just the book for you! Stolen Prey. By John Sanford. He's a New York Times best Seller and yet he is still so far under rated in my opinion. Im not even a Crime reading kind of guy, I like Horror. But I still read him because i love his work. Also Jeffrey deaver makes great books like what you're looking for so try his Lincoln Rhyme series. Quote

Also Jeffrey deaver makes great books like what you're looking for so try his Lincoln Rhyme series. John Sandford has written quite a few books in the 'Prey' series. Many years ago, my friend and I were really into those books and were constantly keeping an eye out for any in the series. They are a pretty easy read though, not too complex and quite fast paced, if I recall. Quote
Sagesmith Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 I'm just about to invest in my first Chris Carter book. Was going to plump for The Crucifix Killer or One by One. Both seem to be hugely popular on Amazon. Quote
runner Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Read all, the latest The Death Sculptor is brilliant (well not the latest I believe he has a new book out I have not read yet) here is my review on Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R3T923T9KDQU9P/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0857203029&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag= Quote
