Reseñas de la Crítica

”First-rate suspense, scary and stylish.”—Los Angeles Times

Dean Koontz never disappoints

This is one of the classic. I believe it originally released in 1985 and now the audiobook. The story is quite predictable but it’s still very fun to listen. Troy Duran is the GOAT, I can listen to him reading anything. It was first time for me listening Moniqua Plante, she was fantastic as well. The book created an intense scene and suspenseful also frightening as the story goes. I couldn’t stop listening. I would give it 6 stars just for the narrators.

Misuse of the term “Autism”

I love Dean Koontz- but I cringed at his rampant use of the word “autism” to describe something that was absolutely not autism. The story was predictable but the characters were fun. The female narrator had some odd inflection, but I enjoyed the male’s performance.

Fantastic

This has long been a favorite book of mine so I was very excited when I find it in audio. They did a fantastic job the characters sound the way I expected it! This is a must listen in my opinion.

This was a good book.

I really enjoyed this book it . I never heard of things like that could happen to a child. He can write very good books it keeps you wonting to hear more.

Dean Koontz is always great, but this wasn’t my favorite

I would pick another Dean Coons book.

One thing I normally love about Dean Koontz is that his characters are so clever, and usually funny, even when the stories not funny. It seems like the only person who was funny was the guy who worked in the morgue. So that was noticeably lacking. The readers were good except for one distracting and annoying habit that of gas being dramatically at the end of every sentence. Like, do you hear how dramatically I read gasp-pause-you can tell I’m feeling so emotional because-Gasp-pause-I just guessed for breathing at the end of every sentence-gasp-pause. I almost wanted to stop reading it when one chapter was especially bad with it, but then it quit being so noticeable. Maybe she got into her role and didn’t think about it.
