"A few minutes past one o'clock in the morning, a hard rain fell without warning. No thunder preceded the deluge, no wind. The abruptness and the ferocity of the downpour had the urgent quality of a perilous storm in a dream". ***** Thus begins Dean Koontz's riveting read, The Taking, as our main character, Molly Sloan, a self-doubting writer living with the lingering emotional issues of her past in the supportive companionship of her devoted husband, Niel, finds an already disturbed night's sleep interrupted by this violent and unheralded rainstorm.

The Taking is a great piece of fiction by Dean Koontz, who is my favourite writer of suspenseful thrillers. The story revolves around the main character, Molly Sloan and her husband Neil. It starts when Molly awakens during the night and, as she is a writer she goes downstairs to work on her manuscript.

I am so glad I did!! Though it doesn't bode well that it did not linger longer in my memory, this is by far one of his most ambitious yet also most enjoyable thrillers for quite awhile. Molly wakes up in the middle of the night to a ... Read the complete review
