I only read the first one and it was fun and all but didn't compare to the series. I looked up some stuff on how the series progressed and Dexter never had any real arc as a character and eventually it turned out that he was possessed by a demon or something, and the whole thing with Deb finding out Dexter was a serial killer at the end of the first book wasn't even dealt with, as if her acceptance of it was some blasé thing not worth going into. The whole series just sounded shallow and incompetently written, which was the feeling I got from how the first book ended in the first place.
