Review: Last night I finished my very first Dean Koontz novel! I picked up “The Bad Place” at a local Salvation Army thrift store. I find that they have children and adult books for a mer 10 cents. Needless to say I stocked up on a bunch. Anyway, what drew me to...

Pros: Excellent tale of horror and suspense

Cons: Characters that speak in 4 volume book sets. Ending way to simple.
