This
is a review of the Kindle version.
This is the first
book by Dean Koontz that I have read.
The protagonists, Lisa and
Jennifer Pailey, return to their home town, only to find that the town is
mostly deserted. As their investigations slowly start revealing the extent and
the cause of this situation, help arrives from outside. Soon, a small band of
survivors is formed, setting up the stage for the inevitable showdown with an
unique breed of evil.
Great setup.
Excellent character development. Best of all, an exciting and engrossing horror
story.
I also liked
Koontz's references to Lord of the Rings (a character named
“Underhill”) and Batman (characters named “Isley” and “Arkham”).
Highly recommended
for fans of the horror genre and/or readers interested in Dean Koontz's works.
