Billy Holds Lives in His Hands in Velocity by Dean Koontz

Date of Review:  May 31, 2005
The Bottom Line: Velocity is another very entertaining book by Dean Koontz. It is a must read for his fans.
Review: I have been reading and enjoying Dean Koontz s books for several years. I get all of his books as soon they are released and I have added many of his older books to my collection over the years. For the last few years, he has released two new...

Velocity is Koontz' Best Work So Far!

Date of Review:  Jun 15, 2006
The Bottom Line: Velocity is a surprisingly great read from author Dean Koontz. I highly recommend it!
Review: My father recently read Velocity by Dean Koontz and he said it was really weird, but he just couldn t stop reading it. I ve read Koontz before and I always thought his books were somewhat simple and mediocre. Velocity has changed my mind completely...

Movement.. Velocity... Impact ... - Velocity (2005)

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 2005
The Bottom Line: Mannequins chopped up with an ax.. what more do ya need?
Review: "Velocity" a novel by Dean Koontz


The king of killer horror novels, has struck again. With a story that is full of grotesque gore and solid suspense, it is a book for those searching for a thrilling terror tale. Dean Koontz shows a...

Velocity - Koontz proves his Bloody Knife worthiness

Date of Review:  Aug 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: Murder and mayhem, it's Bloody Knife goodness!
Review: I do make fun of my beloved Bloody Knife* novels. With their cavalcade of murder, mayhem, ghouls, ghosts and general evil beasties, there is a definite danger for authors to get just a touch carried away and go from creepy to campy. Yet this is...

Koontz' Velocity Offers A Speedy Ride

Date of Review:  Jun 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: A real page-turner.
Review: Normally, I don t read much pop fiction, but every now and then, I ll have a book suggested to me to read. Its not that I don t like authors like John Grisham, Tom Clancy, or Michael Crichton on the contrary, they tell wonderful stories but its just...

"Riveting..." 203 Pageviews

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2005
The Bottom Line: Ultimately, this one falls somewhere in the upper middle ranks of the complete Koontz library.
Review: Velocity, $17.82 Amazon.com, is the 47th thriller from Dean Koontz that a publishing house has agreed to market. There must be some method to his madness, don't you think? I own eight of Dean's books, and I've read nine, but I've barely put a dent...

Velocity: what kind of person thinks up these plots?

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2006
The Bottom Line: Suspense-junkies and Koontz fans won't be disappointed.
Review: I love to read all the time but during the school year it is usually limited to textbooks and fast/easy chick lit novels. I read the textbooks at work and the chick lit at night before I fall asleep. Anything that doesn t fall into those two...

Dean Koontz Ditches Alien, Supernatural In Velocity

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2007
The Bottom Line: Solid suspenseful novel that doesn't rely on little green men. Koontz isn't Updike, but he's getting pretty darn good.
Review: Dean Koontz continues improving as an author and has reached the point where he can write a taut, suspenseful novel without relying on the supernatural. Readers following the prolific writer's career are undoubtedly impressed by his continuing...

What a ride!

Date of Review:  Mar 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fantastic thriller. It will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Review: This book was amazing. I was looking for a lazy read that I could bury myself in between tasks, which I did not get. I wasn't disappointed, however. The first time I read it, I could not put it down. My heart was pounding during the more intense...

Not bad...

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2007
Review: Not Dean's best book, but a good read. I liked not knowing what was around each corner. Dean has a way of writing, with many details, that sometimes leaves you breathless. I love the gory details in his books. I have been scared a time or two while...
