brodi_ 's review for:

I Am Death by Chris Carter
3.5
dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Still a fun read — fast, brutal, and addictive in that Chris Carter way. I do like the series, but the formula’s hard to ignore: horrific crimes, faceless killer, Hunter gets personally roped in, near-death showdown (usually him or Garcia), conveniently tragic villain monologue, quick debrief, the end. The details change, sure — but the path is so familiar it takes the edge off the suspense.
