Watched all of S1 and S2 on the internet, can't wait for series 3. Michael C. Hall is a really good actor, I'd like to see him in more things. The fact that somone thinks the 3rd book is pish is a little worrying. Some shows have a problem in justifying more series' so they just dream up daft plots, I thought the plot for the second book/series was excellent.
I believe most reviewers said the third was lazilly written and without the charm of the previous two books, while also developing some ludicrous plot twists...
What does a scanner see? he asked himself. I mean, really see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does a passive infrared scanner like they used to use or a cube-type holo-scanner like they use these days, the latest thing, see into me—into us—clearly or darkly? I hope it does, he thought, see clearly, because I can’t any longer these days see into myself. I see only murk. Murk outside; murk inside. I hope, for everyone’s sake, the scanners do better. Because, he thought, if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I myself do, then we are cursed, cursed again and like we have been continually, and we’ll wind up dead this way, knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too.
