A Melancholy Effort from The Master

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2003
The Bottom Line: Koontz fans rejoice! It's his second book this year!
Review: **Preface and background: I am a huge Dean Koontz fan. By huge I do not mean that I weigh in excess of 400 pounds, though after the holidays I may be closing on it. By huge, I mean that Koontz has had an incredible effect on my life through his many...

It's Kooooontzerrific!

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2004
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended, especially if you like his recent writing.
Review: I love Koontz's writing. I enjoy his more pedestrian early writings, and I love his more recent novels such as "Ticktock" and "Dark Rivers of the Heart", which tend to have more depth, more heart, and more composite characters than some of his...

Commanded to By a 400 LB. Man With 6 Fingers

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2007
The Bottom Line: This story has something for everyone! A great read that will keep you wanting more.
Review: Odd Thomas, an unordinary fry cook at the local diner, tells his story in a first person narration full of wit and whimsy. Scattering us here and there with his thoughts, while dealing with dead people and impending evil, he takes us on a ride...

Odd Thomas - Dean Koontz knows that it ain't easy bein' odd.

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: The bottom line has a crush on Odd Thomas.
Review: Stephen King and Dean Koontz share a number of traits. They both write in my beloved supernatural-horror-thriller genre, they both have the ability to create truly wonderful characters, they re both prolific and they both have a strong tendency to...

Interesting Book

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2005
Review: I love Dean Koontz and have read almost all of his books. Some of them tend to be a little out there, which makes them sometimes hard to enjoy.
I loved this book. Odd was a great and fleshed out character. I didn't see the ending coming, and...

Exciting Book

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2008
Review: This is a fabulous book about a young man with supernatural powers. The thing that struck me the most about this book is the main characters moral integrity. He is a very virtuous person- always doing what is right and above all he is a very very...

Odd Thomas

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: In conclusion I fully recommend this book to anyone who can handle caring about the charters.
Review: I bought this book because a friend recommended after seeing what I was currently reading. With in a few chapters I was hooked. I couldn't put this book down until I was done. Even then I was in a hurry to read the next one. This was my first book...

Odd but Oh So Clever!

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: Koontz has written a passel of good books but If someone were to ask for a recommendation to start with, this would probably be it.
Review: I just finished Odd Thomas and I got to tell you the book was well named. In fact not just the protagonist 'Odd Thomas' (his name) was odd, the whole story was odd, in a Stephen King sort of way. That's not to detract from Mr.Koontz who is a fine...

Odd Thomas: A Quirky, Uneven Plot from Dean Koontz

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: Looking four a book two read thats a little odd and different? Give Odd Thomas your attention - I guarantee you won't eight it and give it the deep
Review: The Top Line

Odd Thomas brings to mind two immediate thoughts firstly it is quirky, and secondly the movie The Sixth Sense. It is a B+ of a book from Koontz, with a good helping of offbeat humor, an all-too-human hero who narrates the...
