He has an uncanny sense of getting the job done when all other methods have failed but this time, on this world, he has met his match. The descriptions of this world are really some of the best sci fi I have ever read. The silicon based world, the silicon based flora and fauna is at times quite frightening as Evan has his job cut out just seeing three feet in front of himself.

Absorbing fantasy. Can be quite abstract in places.

Balletic, complex plot and characters; beautiful prose; emotional depth Those after a quick-paced page-turner need not apply

A captivating read from a great author

Wonderfully dark A little slow paced

Retains the same feel, compelling characters, and easy reading style as the first book The weakest book in the series that doesn't quite hit the quality of the other two

An exceptional series that I'd recommend heartilly to anyone and everyone! Not the best written books, but still enjoyable

What could be wrong about an ODD THOMAS novel.....he's such a truly great character The weakest of the series by far-should Koontz have left this series as a one-off?

The book is very realistic and fun for your baby/child. There aren't any.
