To ruin my day, looks like I must've read a bogus source and it might not be coming out next month. conflicting reports all over the place on the Internet...

The first Odd Thomas story was pretty cool, but I lost interest in the series after the third book.
Koontz is losing his appeal for me. I'm struggling to finish 77 Shadow Street right now. It's crap, and I'm not entirely sure why I've decided to finish it. |

The book was fine. Didn't do much for me. But it killed a few hours.
I did know it was a movie. Starring Anton Yelchin and Willem Dafoe, I believe. Looking forward to seeing a trailer. Could be a rare example of movie being better than book, I think. |

i just ordered the new book. First book was best for sure. I liked the first couple books of his Frankenstein series as well but that went down hill starting with the 3rd book.

I loved the entire Frankenstein series as well as a lot of his earlier books such as Lightning, Watchers, Twilight Eyes and Cold Fire, but I too have become somewhat bored with Koontz. His writing used to be crisp and concise; now it seems like he gets paid by the word and he goes out of his way to be overly descriptive and wordy.

That series actually inspired me to read the original Frankenstein novel by Mary Shelley. That book is surprisingly good. |
