Book Reviews of The House of Thunder
Book Review: Koontz Kicks Butt!!
Summary: 5 Stars
As a first time reader of Koontz's books, I could hardly put it down. I am currently readding another book of his, Lightning. The House of Thunder is a gripping, suspensful book. The ending is definitly unexpected. I loved it to the last word, and was sorry when the book was over.Book Review: Classic Koontz
Summary: 4 Stars
After being dazzled by the recent FALSE MEMORY, I went back into the Koontz catalog. The man is brilliant, and I do not say that because the Chicago Sun Times did! New writers would do well to study his style and techniques. Great story, never a dull moment. Few writers can keep suspense up in such a minimal setting for so long.Book Review: One of the worst books by Koontz
Summary: 1 Stars
I skipped through so many pages of this book because it was just terrible. Of course there is another goofy love story "You're so gorgeous that I am in love with you" storyline. And the conversations that these characters have are just bad esp the conversation between the orderlies. I have read some Koontz books and it seems that in every one of them some woman or women are degraded, tortured, or raped or all three. It was really difficult to finish this book. Even Koontz's The Key to Midnight was better than this and that was another bad read. Bottom line: this is probably one of the worst books written by Koontz or any author.Book Review: Wickedly Fascinating
Summary: 4 Stars
Koontz is a master of the psychological thriller. The House of Thunder twists and turns with alarming ease, leading the reader down a darkened funhouse maze, never letting on where he is going with the story.I could not put this book down once I began reading it, finally finishing it at 3am, after starting around midnight. I was captivated by the storyline, and had no clue that all the things that were happening were part of a big sham. However, I thoroughly enjoyed being fooled by Koontz, as this made the entire book so engaging and entertaining. I just couldn't put the book down 'til I knew what the outcome was!
Good story! Would like to see this one made into a movie!
Peace Out.
Book Review: Koontz Does It Again!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book to me is a classic. Koontz brilliantly constructs this plot and makes it a joy to see unfold. I read this book a few years back and I still remember the pleasure I got from it. A couple months ago I gave this book to my girlfriend to read I got her hooked on Koontz now I am like her Koontz supplier hehehe. Anyways I dared her to figure out the plot before books end and to tell me. She had quite the imagination but could never come up with the plot. After she finsihed she was astounded by the sheer brilliance of this book. So why did I give this book 5 stars quite simply because it was a hard book to put down. I seen from other reviews some were disappointed with the ending but I bet for that moment of time when they were reading it all were captivated just as I was!!!
