Very interesting.

Koontz did better with this novel than BREATHLESS, that's for sure. No dog this time around either, which came as a bit of a pleasant surprise.

The killer or 'freak' in this novel had an interesting premise to him, in that he was a superhero mixed with demon all in one. He could do whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted, and it didn't matter what anybody tried to do to stop him.

However. And there's always a however.

The whole 'ending' section of this novel felt a little rushed. I didn't really understand why certain things happened, and I don't think it's for a lack of trying, or for paying attention. It was a neat little clean wrapup, but it did leave me feeling a little lacking. I would've liked to see either a happier ending or a darker ending, if that makes any sense. Just seemed a little mediocre.

All in all, a great fast-paced Koontz read, but it is Koontz all the same.

Reccomended beach or airplane novel.
