Dean R. Koontz

Writers Digest Books, 1981

required reading for writers
This is the Bible for anyone who wants to write good commercial fiction. His no-b.s. approach to writing is refreshing in an area filled with mediocre books. This book may be expensive and hard to find (it should be updated, or at least brought back in print), but is ...

Oddkins: A Fable for All Ages

One of the best story books ever
I have been looking for a copy of this book for years. It was the 2nd book I read by Koontz and fell in love with it. I had read it over several times and fell into the story and art work everytime. Even though it's been over 10 years since I've last seen or read ...

Mr. Murder

Dean R. Koontz

Simon & Schuster Audio, 2005

I know it's a cliche, but I couldn't put it down.
Before I read this book, I hardly ever read. I only did it once a year for book reports or when I had to read. But I picked up this one, and within hours I had to continue it. I didn't put it down until I was finished. I went from reading one book a year to reading ...

Patricia Dibsie

Yorkville Press, 2003

Love Heels: Tales From Canine Companions for Independence
Oh, wow! I highly recommend this book. I have been a puppy raiser for CCI since 1988, and this book absolutely captures the heart and soul of this wonderful organization. I have lived the puppy-raising part twelve times, so I especially appreciate the ...

The Eyes of Darkness

Dean R. Koontz

Dark Harvest, 1989

Interesting Early Work by Koontz
Dean Koontz is an author of recurring themes: in most of his books, children play a prominent role. The love of a parent for a child is part of this, and The Eyes of Darkness, while flawed, aptly depicts the length a mother will go to find a child. Tina Evans, former ...

Watchers

Dean R. KOONTZ

Putnam & Sons: NY, 1987

You Will Fall in Love with the Dog.
"Watchers" is a great story to be read. Dean Koontz has a superlative genius for depicting scenes with constant and subtle increase of tension. With very tiny elements, a normal engagement, turns into a hair-raising situation. The dog-human relationship is very ...

Three Complete Novels (Strangers / The Voice of the Night / The Mask)

Dean R. Koontz

Putnam Adult, 1994

Strangers and The Voice Of The Night
I've read 26 Dean Koontz books, and while I haven't read The Mask, both Strangers and The Voice Of The Night are excellent. Strangers is about a handful of people from different parts of the country who are experiencing bizzare, frightening occurrences and obsessions ...
