Book Review: Best Ever by Dean Koontz
Summary: 5 Stars
Dean Koontz out did himself this time. It is by far one of the
best books he has ever written. I could hardly put the book
down. Keep going Dean. Love your books.

Book Review: Best Read!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far the best book I ever read. I couldn't put it down. I'm not a big book reader & I finished this within 2 months. I wish I could get something as good but nothing compares.Book Review: Best from a mediocre author
Summary: 3 Stars
No matter girls and teenage boys (or right-wing religious fans) may find him likeale, in my book Koontz is one of the weakest authors around...his stories take you somewhere with some cliche-things and prey on soft spots of people-like how our corrupted culture leads to the violence...or morally upside girls and boys will make a poor world in their own...but his characters seem customised cardboards; his romanticism is silly and his dogs are yelping to get real dog-attitudes after all...this is the best and most readable book from him...but you should stop here...and perhaps try Lightning though stomach-churning sentimalism is there...not my cup of coffee. Anyway poor writing, terrible dialogues and silly characters saved by only good suspense and a frantic pace. But his most other books lack these factors so that is it.By the way, I have never read any King book in my life but I plan to read many of him. Why? Because I watched two movies based on his books: One was Pet Sematary (the reviewer below: you should have READ the book carefully before slugging it off "a disappointed" one; you even don't know the TRUE SPELLING which plays a significant part in the movie)which was horror and I thought: A mindless horror hacker should he be, this author called king. But when my husband said that he was also the author of Shawshank Redemption I was utterly astounded and thought: No, There must be two DIFFERENT Stephen Kings. Any author penning Pet Sematary and Shawshank Redemption from the same mind should be far far away from cliche and must be really intelligent, readable and know something about people and this world. Now today I bought Carrie and even the first page seems to be better from the entire Koontz cannon.
Just my humble opinion. Everyone's taste is up to her or him.
Book Review: Best of Koontz
Summary: 5 Stars
I believe I've read all Dean Koontz novels which I have greatly enjoyed. However, The Watchers over all these years has always been my personal favorite. Everyone I've recommended this book to has agreed. Of course, you don't have to be an animal lover to enjoy this book, but it doesn't hurt.
