Odd Thomas Sees Dead People in Dean Koontz's New Book

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2003
The Bottom Line: Odd Thomas is another good book by Dean Koontz, but it is more emotional and depressing than his other books.
Review: I started to read Dean Koontz books several years ago after a friend suggested I try them. Now I get his new books as soon as they come out. I have also been getting his books that were already out when I started to read his books. I now have almost...

Odd Thomas - Dean Koontz knows that it ain't easy bein' odd.

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: The bottom line has a crush on Odd Thomas.
Review: Stephen King and Dean Koontz share a number of traits. They both write in my beloved supernatural-horror-thriller genre, they both have the ability to create truly wonderful characters, they're both prolific and they both have a strong tendency to...

A Melancholy Effort from The Master

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2003
The Bottom Line: Koontz fans rejoice! It's his second book this year!
Review: **Preface and background: I am a huge Dean Koontz fan. By huge I do not mean that I weigh in excess of 400 pounds, though after the holidays I may be closing on it. By huge, I mean that Koontz has had an incredible effect on my life through his many...

The next unlikely hero from Dean Koontz: Odd Thomas

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's a quick, fun read with great characters, definitely worth reading
Review: By far, my favorite Dean Koontz books are Fear Nothing and Seize the Night, stories about a very likeable, charismatic, unlikely hero, Christopher Snow. In my latest foray into the worlds created by Koontz, I have found another hero with those same...

Everything's Odd In The World Of Dean Koontz

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're a fan of John Saul then you would probably like this Koontz novel.
Review: I pretty much filtered my Dean Koontz reading because I had a hard time reading The Face Of Fear as well as the Fear Nothing and Seize The Night series and I was disappointed in the author. Shattered was the most recent one that I read by Koontz in...

Odd Thomas: A Quirky, Uneven Plot from Dean Koontz

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: Looking four a book two read thats a little odd and different? Give Odd Thomas your attention - I guarantee you won't eight it and give it the deep
Review: The Top Line

Odd Thomas brings to mind two immediate thoughts – firstly it is quirky, and secondly the movie The Sixth Sense. It is a B+ of a book from Koontz, with a good helping of offbeat humor, an all-too-human hero who narrates the...

Odd Book--Even by Koontz's Standards

Date of Review:  May 10, 2004
The Bottom Line: Isn't The Bottom Line usually "The End" in a novel?
Review: I suppose if your parents gave you the first name of "Odd", you can expect to be a little different. Odd Thomas, his real name, is probably as different as they get.

Rather like The Sixth Sense, Odd sees dead people. They cannot speak for...

Loop Me in, Odd One

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: What is wrong with our world when any number dead can be considered a miracle?
Review: My mother has a tendency to laugh aloud when reading books, and when you say, "What?" she usually ends up reading selections from books to you. She did this to me one day recently, and the things she would read to me were quite funny, but odd as...

Odd Thomas is Even on Tape

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: I liked Odd Thomas, but overall I found the story to be quite average.
Review: I always thought Dean Koontz was a master of horror, so I picked up Odd Thomas as a book on tape to keep me entertained whenever I was in my car. I've listened to a lot of books on tape or cd in my car, it lets me get more out of my day.
