What do you do when you're right in the middle of a good book, and Sweetie hands you Koontz's lastest novel? I don't know about anyone else, but for me, it's drop everything and read!
This one, while not my favorite Koontz novel, by far, was pretty darn fun. Four different stories don't come together until the last couple of chapters. Four stories that seem utterly unrelated. One story is a new twist on Koontz's nasty bad guy. He's bad, too right, but he's also a bungling idiot. Best laid plans gone completely wrong. Of course the bad guy is a politician. No surprise there, when did politician's best laid plans go any other way! And, of course the politician has a tantrum when things come to their logical conclusion.
You're going to really love Dean's extensive treatise completely disproving evolution. Careful though, I don't want any fundamentalist Christians getting too excited; there is logic involved.
Of course the central theme of the book is that things are not necessarily what they seem and that even science is evolving at such a rapid rate that we can hardly count on anything we think we know.
If you'd like to think outside the box for a few light breezy hours, pick up this book.
