Icebound: A Novel
Icebound: A Novel

Review:Aside from his series (Odd Thomas) and his pairing (Christopher Snow), this is my favorite Dean Koontz book. The ending has a touch of cheese to it, but the interactions of the characters keeps me coming back! Whenever I'm down, I just grab the book, open it somewhere in the last 2/3's, and within a page or two I'm laughing. I've gone through four copies, loaning them out, and finally purchased a copy for my Kindle so I would always have one! Read more

False Memory: A Novel
False Memory: A Novel

Review:THERE IS NO doubt that Dean Koontz - the man, the animal lover, and the writer - has an intense love for life, for humanity, for dogs (Golden Retrievers in particular) and perhaps most importantly, an intense love of spreading the word of all things kind, and all things good, in any way he chooses. His fans, of course, read his books for a variety of reasons, and I admit to reading them for his Koontz-specific flair for the supernatural, as well, of course, to see how his latest book reflects h...

Fear Nothing: A Novel (Christopher Snow)
Fear Nothing: A Novel (Christopher Snow)

Review:This is the usual Dean Koontz nail biter. Lots of suspense, weird happenings, strange characters. After all, it is SciFi. But if you are a Dean Koontz fan, you will not be disappointed. His main characters are endearing (you can't help but root for them) and I am glad there is a sequel "Seize the Night" and hopefully by some miracle all will turn out well for the hero, Christopher Snow, his dear friends ,and that definitely includes his faithful, super intelligent Orson. I love Koontz' use ... Read more

Night Chills
Night Chills

Review:Night chills gave me NIGHTMARES and I'm not joking. I read this book some 20 or more years after it was written and I found it strikingly relevant to the times even then. I'm not a conspiracy theorist and don't honestly spend a lot of my day pondering whether or not I should wear a tin foil hat to block the government's secret satellites from shooting x-rays into my skull. But I do often think of the mind control theories put forth in this book and about how plausible it was presented even amid ... Read more

Sole Survivor: A Novel
Sole Survivor: A Novel

Review:The plot begins with character—a man deeply depressed by the loss of his family; a sole survivor who would rather prefer not to survive. He watches the waves; and the reader, swiftly drawn in, watches with him. Then things change. Soon, Dean Koonz’s Sole Survivor is a fast-flowing tale of danger and mystery. There may be another “sole survivor” out there, and Joe is chased by strangers with complex technological resources and apparent immunity to use them. With his own life in danger, he’s despe...

The Damnation Game
The Damnation Game

Review:Unique description title, eh?

Liverpudlian Clive Barker penned this disturbing gross-out about twenty years ago and most predicted it would be the novel that would launch him into fame and fortune and set him atop the throne of "Reigning Master of Horror" occupied by Stephen King. Well, that didn't happen, and I think the main reason---aside from the fact that King is simply a superior writer---is that Barker's tales, be they short stories or epic novels, concentrate so intently on being ...

Coldheart Canyon: A Hollywood Ghost Story

Review:My best friend, April told me about this book "Marisa, you're got to read this, this will nock your socks off". I love the Kayta. Kayta is a sexy film star from the 1920's.
