I just finished reading Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz.
Brilliant.
Simply and utterly brilliant.
His writing flows in a way that feels right to the reader ... in this case, me. This novel has the perfect mix of humor, edge-of-your-seat trepidation, and a connection with the characters that makes you feel like your right next to them on their journey.
My first Koontz book that I ever read was just a few months ago; in fact, it was the first book Koontz ever wrote: Chase (the revised addition). Next came The Taking, then The House of Thunder.
I have enjoyed his work and look forward to experiencing all that he has to offer us readers. Each novel I read, I try to take something from it, soak in every bit of writing knowledge that I can; this is part of the reason I love reading: I love learning how I can better my own writing skills.
What better way to learn than to read it firsthand from the best.
Well, on to Forever Odd.
