The Uniquely Talented Dean Koontz

 

Hmm, Dean Koontz, where to begin? Firstly he has to be one of the all time best authors around, and believe me I am not the only one that thinks so.

"Dean Koontz writes page-turners, middle-of-the-night-sneak-up-behind-you suspense thrillers. He touches our hearts and tingles our spines." - The Washington Post Book World

"A modern Swift ... a master satirist." - Entertainment Weekly

"A superb plotter and wordsmith. He chronicles the hopes and fears of our time in broad strokes and fine detail, using popular fiction to explore the human condition [and] demonstrating that the real horror of life is found not in monsters, but within the human psyche." - USA Today

"Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose." - The New York Times Book Review

"Dean Koontz deftly mixes humor with horror as he tackles the big questions: Can humans prove that God exists? And why is Elvis scared to go to heaven?" * * * * -- People Magazine

Amazingly this guy has been writing books since before I was born. It saddens me to say I have not even read half of the books he has out there. The last time I did a search for Dean Koontz on Amazon it came back with 2,105 results, and that was just for books! Though I know before my time ends I will do my best to have read every word he has ever or will ever write.

Until that time I will continue to try to make sure every one of you that wish to have a wonderful place to visit your favorite author can come right here to sit back, relax and soak in all the fabulousness we all know and love about Dean Koontz.
