Forever Koontz!

Advantages: Fast Paced, gripping story
Disadvantages: None at all

This is the latest offering from Dean Koontz, author of so many brilliant horror/suspense/thriller books. I believe Koontz is hard to categorise, he has his own unique genre. He has written loads of books, my personal favourites being "False Memory", ...

An odd one out for Mr Koontz

Advantages: Another Dean Koontz book
