Quite possibly the best novel ever written. Has to be the most satisfying book in the history of suspense novels

This, by far, is the best book I have ever read. The characters seem so real, that I believe any part of this book could be in real life. Dean Koontz is an exellent writer who combines every category of books into one masterpiece. The words flow so smoothly, and it is such an enjoyable book.

This is by far my favorite Dean Koontz book. I enjoyed the story very much, especially the relationship between the boy and his dog and how the boy took everything in this world so literally. This story has humor, a lot of heartfelt emotions and suspense. It's a long story, over 700 pages, but the suspense carries you right through it very rapidly.

This is a great novel. Koontz creates a story that is both real and vivid. And most importantly I think the story contains a strong moral for us all to remember. I suggest this book to anyone who is interested in being entertained and educated. Another book I also recommend is Paul Omeziri's Descent into Illusion.

Absolutely the best book of the year! Heartfelt, warm, funny, and so very possible. Not the standard Koontz fare, as there was no 'monster', just the evil that exists in some forms of humans. And it is good to have evil called evil, not danced around like so many folks do. And who's to say that dogs are not the gatekeepers-most dogs I have met have more sense and wisdom than the humans around them.

I have been a Stephen King fan, and a Koontz fan, for a long time. Reading about things that certainly could not happen made the world we actually live in a little more pleasant to look at. Up until I read the Author's note at the end of this book, I never imagined that scholars believeing in utilitarian bioethics actually existed. I mean, sure there will always be a loose screw here and there, but that there are professionals meant to heal and actually do this everyday--seemed crazy to me. I was shocked. I enjoyed reading the book. Koontz always keeps me entertained. He has went to a whole different level, because instead of fiction, it's based on truth. (Not the characters, of course, or the alien-good v/s evil plot) but it has piqued an interest in me to learn more about these things that are really happening. So here I am, surfing the net, reading about things so horrible, I wouldn't have to pick up another fiction book in my life. I recommend this book to anyone. Not just for the fiction, though. I recommend it because it alerts us to stuff that is really happening. Read it, the take koontz' advice and learn more about it. I am. Maybe the more we learn, the more likely it is to be able to change things before it's too late.

Koontz, again (through a sometimes verbose and windy pathway) intersects the same characters and again verbosely heralds truth is greater than fiction. But, not unlike a ship floundering, we are captivated by the familiar and yet shocking.....If only to gleen from "The Book of Counted Sorrows" it is like opium for the genre'.

it was cute and i like his writing style for an enjoyable quick read but towards the end this book just doesn't sit well. thier was more than one subject that i sensed a thinly veiled agenda. the characters were of course mostly outrageous but i think that was kind of the point and it kept me turning pages and wondering what would happen next. i noticed a little bit of grasping towards the end attempting to reign the story in and a little preachiness aimed at yours truly the unwitting reader. anyhoo, i was entertained for the time being and i have started telepathically connecting with my dog, Francie. so read with caution
