Thus, the character Dexter Morgan , became America's favorite serial killer. The last Dexter book in the series was published in There are major plot differences between the two, involving the characters, roles, and story lines. First novel A majority of Season One was based on this book, from Dexter 's encounter with Father Donovan to his ultimate confrontation with his brother Brian , although the endings differ.
Second novel The Showtime series no longer follows the book plots. Dexter and Sgt. Doakes reluctantly team up against a threat from Doakes' past, a killer which not only captures the attention of the Miami-Dade Police, but also from the Feds. Third novel A major plot element received mixed reviews. With his wedding near, Dexter must face the fact that he now has a family. He also deals with the sudden silence of his Dark Passenger after he's is in the presence of a gruesome double murder crime scene.
Fourth novel After his honeymoon in Paris, life is almost normal for Dexter. But old habits die hard when he discovers that a new serial killer is on the loose. Dexter is driving around Miami when he spots a refrigerated truck and decides to follow it when all of a sudden the driver tosses a severed head into his car.
While this is adapted in the show, it's not Dexter's first major encounter with Brian Moser. Maria LaGuerta does eventually die in the series, but she has a much larger role that lasts several seasons.
In the book, LaGuerta, first name Migdia, is far more of an enemy to Deborah than she is on the series. When Dexter refuses to kill Deborah spelled Debra on the show because of his code and because, in some weird way, he does love his sister , Brian kills LaGuerta instead.
In the books, Dexter is exactly who one would think a serial killer would be. Cold, calculating, cruel, completely devoid of emotion, and possessing zero empathy for others. He was totally detached from humankind. By contrast, the Dexter on the show was far more relatable. He came across as socially awkward and a bit weird, but it was clear he had affectionate feelings for some people even if he didn't quite understand them.
The show writes Deb as a career-focused woman who, on the one hand, wants to find love. But on the other, is so deeply married to her job that she really has no time to date nor to dedicate to a relationship. In the books, she is less hard on herself and has a steady boyfriend who eventually gets her pregnant, after which she gives birth to a son.
