Pros: Koontz wrote it. Good character development. Cons: Too long. Too over the top. Didn't grip me the way his other novels do.
I enjoy most of Dean Koontz's novels, but had a hard time getting through False Memory without rolling my eyes so much I gave myself a headache. I read an interview Mr. Koontz gave where he said he was first afraid he wouldn’t be ...
Pros: Engrossing story. I couldn't put it down. Scary Cons: It may be too long for some people
A few years ago I was telling a friend about a book I had just read and really enjoyed. He told me that the plot sounded similar to some books by Dean Koontz, and suggested I try some of his books since I liked the book I was talking about so much. ...
Pros: good villain Cons: felt like I'd read this before, disappointing ending
Dean Koontz and Stephen King have always been in competition to be my favorite author. I think after reading this book, King definitely took the lead. False Memory is a book that left me feeling like I had bought a book that I'd read ...
Pros: unique story line, semi-love story wrapped into horror and suspense, character development Cons: confusing, plot not concrete
*Note: This review was one of the first reviews that I had written when I began at epinions around June of 2001. I have recently revised it because I was just not happy with it. Thank you to those that had rated it in it’s first version. ...
Pros: A real page turner. Koontz has a flair for suspense. Cons: The plot is a bit unrealistic - but none the less worth reading.
Having recently completed the best selling novel - False Memory - by Dean Koontz, this reader was instantly taken aback by Koontz' ability to create such believable characters behind a surreal and terrifying plot.
Pros: interesting plot concept Cons: With Koontz's formulaic characters and forced plot, this book simply never takes off.
What if an author of a book that you reviewed on Epinions didn’t like your review? Would he attempt to exact revenge? Would he try to kill you and your entire family? Probably not. But he might.
Pros: Excellent writing and plot Cons: Too overdrawn at parts
Extremely well written, a highly recommended book, however there were minor drawbacks. Prior to reading this book I had read 3 other books by Koontz, A Key To Midnight, Dragon Tears, and Intensity, all of which I really enjoyed. So recently I...
Pros: Fun story, a couple good twists Cons: Some typical Koontz formulas rehashed, cartoon-like characters
Dean Koontz has never struck me as one of the great writers of our generation. He never has anything really deep or profound to say and his stories are generally pretty formulaic. However, I keep finding myself picking up his books and reading...
Pros: great characters, intricate plotline, chilling ideas Cons: None
I've never considered Dean Koontz a very good writer. Now don't get me wrong -- I'm an avid Koontz fan, and I've probably read 90% of the books he's authored. But in my experience, there are good writers, and there are good storytellers, and rarely...
Pros: Interesting storyline. Cons: Story seemed to drag. Found some inconsistencies.
I have been a fan of Dean Koontz for a few years now. During the past year, I have read many of his releases, as many as I could get my hands on from my local second hand bookstore. But in doing so, I found that I was almost able to predict each...
Pros: Brilliant story, didn't want it too end. Cons: It ended.
The greatest lie the Devil ever told was convincing the world he didn't exist. Most of you know that quote from a famous movie, but the question is, why did I use it to open my review? Because I believe it goes a long way toward explaining...
Pros: Periodically interesting, occasionally wonderfully bizarre and slightly kinky. Cons: Excessively long; unbelievable storyline; misleading description on back cover.
So that title grabbed your eye, but what's it about anyway? You'll have to read the book to find out! The title of my review is a more accurate description of the book's storyline than is the title "False Memory". The description on the back cover of...
Pros: a true psychological thriller- convincing Cons: a bit more disjointed than his other works
Dean Koontz does it again. His writing manages to scare you to the point where you need to get a reality check during the scariest scenes and make sure the rest of your world is still pretty normal while the characters go spiraling through incredibly...
