Query: If you like Koontz, DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!!

Being a longtime Dean Koontz fan, I was eagerly waiting for his next book to come out. I was completely disappointed after having read this book. I started the book and had a hard time really getting into it but wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt so I stuck with it. What started out as chapters of lengthy mediocre writing, turned into the worst plot I have ever encountered. Every time I thought I had figured it out, I said to myself, "No, it can't be that, he wouldn't write something that predictable." Well, I was wrong. It was predictable and boring and a huge disappointment. It was different from his normal style (much like From the Corner of His Eye which was a great book) but it did not live up to my expectations which turned out to be entirely too high. Maybe he'll get it with the next book? For his sake, and readers everywhere, I hope so.
