Query: Ho-Hum

I picked this book up on a free Kindle offer and I'm glad for the price. I made it 27% through before calling it quits. The author does do well with descriptions of locations and characters, but to me, they came across as animated stereotypes--nothing too unique or interesting to any of them. And, there were so many of them. I like King and Koontz, but didn't find that quality of work here. I kept it to two stars--"I didn't like it", however, because there are tons of junk books available on the Kindle for free, and this is definitely a cut above those, both in the author's skill and execution.
