Pros: Well thought out story line, depth of characters Cons: Takes a long time to bring together many plots.
I'm truly a Dean Koontz fan. Only about a year ago my husband introduced me to this author of thrill, horror and adventure and have found myself reading book after book after book.
From the Corner of His Eye is one of those books that...
Pros: A philosophical novel that dwells in the scientific and supernatural. Cons: The "Final Showdown" scene ended too abruptly!
“Not every coincidence…has meaning. Toss a quarter one million times, roughly half a million heads will turn up, roughly the same number of tails. In the process, there will be instances when heads turn up thirty, forty, a hundred times in a row....
Pros: Intricate, spine tingling suspense. Cons: Boring in a couple of places.

Pros: great characters, attention to detail, compelling story Cons: some of the quantum physics may go over the average reader's head
WOW! That's all I could think last night when I finally finished reading this book, Dean Koontz latest. This story is based on the premise of the Apostle Bartholomew. He is not one of the more well-known of Jesus' apostles, but that is what makes ...
Pros: Immensely intriguing. Believable characters. Quarters in cheeseburgers. Infinite possibilities. Cons: Abrupt climax, perhaps the ending was rushed.
Of the ten or so books that I have read in 25 years, Dean Koontz has taken precedence as my most oft-read author. The Voice of the Night, Watchers, Cold Fire, and finally, Intensity. I haven't touched a book in at least three years, but...
Pros: Excellent Koontz fare with a mystery. Cons: Kids are just a bit too smart and precocious.
Four deaths. One murder. One accident. One comes back. One dies as a result of a crime. Three babies. Two live. One never had a chance. One murderer. One detective. Two non-traditional families. One destiny of people whose pasts are ...
I can't remember when I turned the pages of a book so fast! Dean Koontz's newest thriller, From the Corner of His Eye had me from the very first page. The following excerpt is how the book starts out:
Pros: Beautifully written and interesting book. Cons: Somewhat confusing.

Pros: Thought provoking, well written, exciting, thoroughly enjoyable Cons: None
I almost decided not to write a review on this Dean Koontz book because I was afraid I couldn't do it justice. But I have to try. In a word, it's a masterpiece. I was stunned, amazed, entertained, and deeply satisfied with From the Corner of His...
Pros: Beautifully Written. The author is a fantastic writer Cons: Sub plots - bizarre even for Sci Fi- Disappointing climax
Oh my goodness, Dean has done it again. He started giving the reader high hopes for a good suspense thriller - only to dash those hopes at the climax. Darn it. I wish I didn't enjoy Koonz' writing so much. He puts words together so well that it is...
Pros: engaging story, some interesting characters Cons: Way too long, too many unnecessary characters
Many books have parallel storylines that intertwine and eventually meet up at some point in the book. Such is true of From the Corner of His Eye by Dean Koontz. The story is about 3 separate lives which are seemingly unconnected. Bartholomew is the ...
Pros: Great characters, compelling writing, thought-provoking theme Cons: Too short

Pros: engaging characters, well-written novel about how an event can influence the future Cons: abrupt, disappointing ending, bizarre premise
