Best koontz book so far even a little better than lighting so far. How is this a 3.9 people are ridiculous. This book should be like a 4.8. A few things might have been left our but no book is perfect. I'm reading moby dick and this made me more emotional. I have a book hangover over from this after a week still no books make me cry buy this one did that says something. Slim Mckenzie is now my favorite koontz character I wish they made another book with him and Rya.
