Sedmička zajela opět do staré dobré šablony, jako předchozí díly (krom Zloby). Přijde mi, že je tady level brutality o kapku vyšší, než předtím a nemůžu říct nic jiného, než paráda :) Série s Robertem Hunterem je pro mě prostě relax. A zatím se mi ještě neomrzela hláška "Hodně čtu", takže dobrý :D

I am death is the seventh book in the series by Chris Carter. This book, however, was released as a standalone novel. When the body of a young women turns up near LA's international airport staged to look like like a human five-point star. Hunter knows he has to work fast to find her killer but before he can do anything another victim turns up. The autopsy reveals these victims died in horrendous circumstances for this killer is dead.
By the time you get to this book in the series, you feel like you really know the characters. This I feel is because of how well Carter has written them. His descriptive writing and his writing style allow you to really understand and love these characters.
This book was really easy to read with a great plot, fantastic characters that you can relate to and feel empathy for, the characters are also really likeable too. Carters writing style is really captivating and easy to follow, I really enjoy his writing style. I also like the fact that although this book is part of the series, you can read this book as a standalone novel.
Yet again Chris Carter has done an amazing job. I just love his books. For these reasons I have chosen to give this book Five out of Five Stars

I wanted to read this book as the first book was recommended to me by a friend and I instantly loved this series. The first and third book still make my skin crawl to this day. So, I was looking forward to reading this book and this book broke my heart and just freaked me out as well.
The main character in this book and series is a detective named Robert Hunter. He has just come back from his “vacation”. He was supposed to go to Hawaii and instead ended up helping the FBI on a case. He is on a new case. A twenty-year-old woman is found on a patch of grass by the Los Angelous International Airport – she was reported missing seven days ago. She has been left with her limbs stretched out and spread apart, placing her in a five-point human star. The autopsy revealed that she had been murdered in a violent and terrible way. Once Robert is assigned to the case, a second body turns up, Robert knows he must act quickly. He finds himself chasing an unpredictable monster and a predator whose past hides a terrible secret, whose desire to hurt people and thirst for murder can never be quenched for he is Death. Will Robert Hunter be able to find this killer once and for all.
The thing that gets me every time is Chris Carter manages to freak me out every single time, within every single book. The mystery and the suspense is brilliant and enough to keep you hooked and you shouldn’t be because it is disturbing but I couldn’t put it down. I was on edge and so frustrated with how the case was going. The way that both of these detectives were close to giving up hurt my heart. Is it too much to ask for Robert to be happy though? Like please? All I want is for him to have a life partner that keeps him in check and makes him want to come home instead of staying at the office. The plot twist of this book when you found out who Death was had me kicking my feet because I was so annoyed, I didn’t manage to guess who it was. The banter between Garcia and Robert in the beginning was so funny and it hurt my heart because I thought Garcia was leaving.
One thing I would say is a weakness, for me personally, is the short chapters. I just prefer bigger chapters. However, in this book, it did fit well with Chris Carter’s writing style where it usually doesn’t work for me. I was hooked that after a while the short chapters didn’t bother me as they usually would with other authors.
Overall, the book was an easy and quick read and because the writing was amazing, the storyline gives me the creeps and it was overall brilliant I gave it four stars. I cannot wait for the next book in the series and see how much the next bad guy creeps me out.
