What The Hell!

Dexter (the Differences)

It is about time I wrote on this. Firstly I have read all six
Dexter books. I believe that the next season of Dexter is eight.

However the T.V show and the books started to differ with the
very first session.

Dexter has a brother Brian and in the T.V. show he was the Ice
Truck Killer and got engaged to Deb (Dexter's foster sister.
Brian then tried to kill Deb, but Dexter killed him instead.

This did not happen in the book. He was the Ice Truck killer
but not involved with Deb and Dexter did not kill him.

In session two Dexter does marry Rita but they have a little
girl (not boy), and Rita is not killed by the Triple
murderer. She is killed in book six (Dexter: The Final Cut)by
a pedophoile who tries to go off with Astor.

After that the T.V. show is completely different from the books.
