The subject matter of this book did nothing for me. I thought it was a bit too sci-fi"ish" in its' premise so I had to force myself to get through it. I like more of DK's horror books and this just didn't come across that way too much for me.

Watchers is as good as Dean Koontz gets and it is pretty damn good. There are all the hallmarks of what put Koontz on the top of his game, which he was in the late 80s. There non-stop storytelling. There's a believable and likable protagonist. There's a terrible but fascinating villain (Koontz write...
