Strangers | Dean Koontz
10 posts | 36 read | 18 to read
A surgeon, a writer, a motel-keeper, a priest and a thief; they have nothing in common - nothing but one hot summer night at the Tranquillity Motel: a night filled with unending terror; a night when an awesome power stripped them of their memories. Now the evil is creeping back into their minds. Slowly, tauntingly, maddeningly, they are recalling the unspeakable events of that fateful moonlit evening. And as the vision of evil grows clearer, the guests of the Tranquillity Motel seek each other out. Some of them will not live to face the power head on. But some will - in a terror-packed climax unlike anything ever experienced before...

Dominick Corvaisis went to sleep under a light wool blanket and a crisp white sheet, sprawled alone in his bed, but he woke elsewhere - in the darkness at the back of the large foyer closet, behind concealing coats and jackets.

Whew! This was a good, long listen. I enjoy long books with lots of characters with a story line that keeps evolving. People living in various areas of the country begin having similar strange experiences…super power level weirdness. They eventually meet up in California and things become even stranger. I‘m a fan of Koontz and enjoyed this one. #MountTBR

I was conflicted about the length of the book, but I sometimes truly appreciated it because it gives the reader an in-depth look into the characters‘ lives. That is perhaps the greatest strength of the novel, the character development. Koontz makes it strikingly clear that there is a huge secret that will be revealed at the end of the book, and I was pleasantly surprised by his ability to maintain suspense throughout the book.

Anybody else super pumped about the new #Strangers tv series by #koontz??

MinDea Uhhhh... I did not know about this! I used to love Dean Koontz. I will have to look into this. What is the show based off of? One of his books? 5y
Whimsical.Curiosity @MinDea it's for Strangers, each person develops a crippling phobia. I'm going to try and rush read the book so I'm ready. The cast looks great so far. Hopefully they do him justice. Looking at you #phantoms... 5y
MinDea Oh! I am going to have to look into that book! Thanks for sharing. 5y

Although not strictly ‘local‘ to me, Dean Koontz was born in Everett, PA.
The tagged book was the first of his that I read and I have fond memories of reading his books during my teenage years.
In a posted interview he listed Alice Hoffman‘s The Museum of Extraordinary Things as one of his 5 favorite books. @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

Taking a selfie with a book in one hand and an iPad in the other is really freakin hard. 😂This is as outside as I get after work, my back patio. #readingoutside #somethingforsept #septphotochallenge ☀️🌲🌳🍁🍂

The first 500 pages were non stop action and suspense. But in an attempt to tie up all loose ends he made the last 200 pages hardly bearable.

Not an actual stack but one of the boxes of books I've collected for a friend's son who lost everything, including his beloved dog and all of his books, in a fire. I have another box plus a bag of brand new books I bought with a gift card someone donated. I am delivering them this morning!

QueenAnne 😱Oh I'm so sorry for that friend! 😓😓 how sweet of you to help and wishing that poor friend all the luck in the world! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 8y
QueenAnne Sorry I misread, sorry for your friends son! 8y
Gayan It was so sad but I'm hoping that a helping him start a brand new library will help him heal. 8y

LauraBeth I can't even imagine 😔 That's kind that you're giving him a piece of you by giving him your books ❤️ 8y
Gayan I have a lot of King books that I have in hardback, paperback, and audio but I also have an awesome group of friends that have donated to the cause. 8y
Girl_Power @Gayan What state are you in? I would donate some books if I live nearby. 8y
Gayan @Girl_Power I'm in Kentucky, and you are so sweet, however, the response has been overwhelming and I still have books coming in. I'm afraid we might run him out of his new apartment with so many books. 😉 8y
