What the critics say

“A razor-sharp, nonstop, suspenseful story.”—The San Diego Union-Tribune

“A great story...the most ambitious of Dean Koontz’s books.”—Columbus Dispatch

“The take-a-deep-breath ending alone is worth the price of the ticket.”—People

“A great story, sympathetic characters, and enough suspense to keep the pages flying.”—Detroit News

More Praise for Dean Koontz

“Dean Koontz is a prose stylist whose lyricism heightens malevolence and tension. [He creates] characters of unusual richness and depth.”—The Seattle Times

“Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose....‘Serious’ writers...might do well to examine his technique.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Lyrical writing and compelling characters...Koontz stands alone.”—Associated Press

“In every industry there exist ‘artists’ that are not only unforgettable, but know their craft better than the rest. Dean Koontz...is among these artisans.”—Suspense Magazine

“[Koontz] has always had near-Dickensian powers of description, and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”—Los Angeles Times

“Perhaps more than any other author, Koontz writes fiction perfectly suited to the mood of America...novels that acknowledge the reality and tenacity of evil but also the power of good...[and that] entertain vastly as they uplift.”—Publishers Weekly

Oh my goodness! I really loved the way the character of the dog is written. Only someone who knows and loves dogs could have done it this way. I kept reaching out to my dog and looking into his eyes and thinking how perfect Woofer was.

Great story

Incredible imagination by Dean Koontz. The narrator was fabulous, switched into different accent, dialogues and especially that a dog.
Could not wait to figure out how they were gonna get this maniacal, horrible, dangerous, Evil man.

Edge of your seat.
