A moving book about aliens and dogs and light vs darkness...and somehow it works beautifully because Koontz is a genius. 😍👽🐶

panI remember (correctly? who knows!) liking Odd Thomas. ODAfH starts out fine, with three distinct storylines. Then it makes a slow, painful, nothing-but-cruel slog up to a wholly unsatisfying ending “tying“ the three together. The only reason I finished it was because I was sure (?) Koontz was going to make the ending worth it. Big mistake!
The book, as a whole, was unrelentingly violent, mean, repetitive, and mind-bogglingly boring.
Off the beaten path....one reason I enjoy Koontz, and so far this is exactly what I was looking for. A young homeless boy befriends a homeless dog, on the run. A hospice care home and a trailer park with lovely and lively minds, secrets and alot of adventurous fun.
Which koontz to read next??? Any suggestions??
Just starting this......Koontz seems to draw me right into his stories. I'm already pulling for the motherless boy...whose name has not been revealed yet.

panThis was my first Dean Koontz and I am not impressed at all. The book was 680 pages and could have easily been written in 300. The characters were awesome and the plot was ok. The pacing was irritating as fu@k.
