by Dean Koontz
This one was an interesting one. I'm very glad I decided to read it. It was creepy and really sucked me into the world it was creating. It wasn't perfect though. In fact, I was a little surprised by some of the complaints I had, just because I wasn't expecting to have them. But I'll get onto that la...
This is the third time in a row I have awarded a Dean Koontz novel five stars. What is going on?! The Taking, Dean Koontz's 2004 apocalyptic thriller, floored me. Before reading it I scoured the internet (specifically Amazon) for reviews to get a general impression of the story. I do this before s...
Set in a small town in California, Molly Sloan and her husband Neil wake up to strange, downpouring rain that animals are having extreme negative reactions toward, which is part of massive changes taking place in the world.

What has happened that his love is now reserved only for children, animals, nature? I found myself wondering...
Best Dean Koontz novel. his is a good book. Again the darn good characters and the dogs... (I bet the next book will have them both...) This book was good for it's atmospheric and almost percepetible miasma. The aliens, the part of the dogs. I thought it was a good and fast paced book. I read it in ...
I have read a lot of mysteries, tons of horror... and this is the only book that I have had to put down because I was scared.
