Summary: A thriller for dog-lovers
Review: Ok, even if you aren't simply in love with dogs, you may enjoy this book. Koontz plots are all in a similar genre, but this was one that I enjoyed particularly because it was about the very special bond between humans and animals.Also, it was horrific enough to keep me turning the pages, and it had a surprising twist at the end, too.

Summary: Dean at his best!
Review: When I read this book some years ago I considered this to be among his very best work. It starts out simple enough and transforms into a heartpounding immensely enjoyable book. Einstein (the dog) was a creation that I felt deeply for. The main characters gave the story life and you almost could feel the terror they were put into. I felt great sympathy for The Outsider (the beast). I consider this to be the most evilest villian Koontz put on paper and at the sametime felt very sorry for it at the conclusion of the book. All of Koontz's work is brilliant and I am an avid fan because he writes intriguing stories and can entertain me for hours on end and that is what I like most about reading and Dean Koontz has done that like no other!

Summary: You win some, you lose some
Review: The book's plot was unbelievable. Even though the story was intended as a sci-fi, things got too weird when the antagonist of the book was introduced. Another thing to look out for is a sketchy transition from one plot to the other. I have to say there are about five different scenarios to keep track of. The fact that new sub-stories are added through most of the book makes reading and comprehending more difficult. Despite the flaws Koontz still managed to keep the reader's attention with great suspenseful twists throughout the story line. He did a great job in tying the different lives of the characters into one exciting ending. The book is much better reading it the second time around.

Summary: I absolutely, positively could not put this book down!
Review: Two life forms escape from a government lab. One - an intelligent, mutated, horrifying, man-eating creature. The other - a dog of extreme intelligence. On the surface this novel sounds absolutely silly, but Koontz makes it work so well you simply cannot put the book down. You can't wait to find out what the dog, and his owner, are going to do next. Fun reading for a lazy, rainy afternoon. Best enjoyed with your canine best-friend close by.

Summary: It escaped from banodyne.....
Review: The book does not start out slow like other booksand it has a very good story line. There are some gross parts though.The characters have interesting life styles and motavations. Dean Koontz makes you want to keep reading all day and night. Einstein [the smart dog] and the outsider [the geneticly engenered fighting machine] keep you wondering , what's going to happen next? Over all its the best book I have ever read

Summary: possibly the best book ever written
Review: Watchers is a stunning novel of two genetically engineered creatures. One is a sucess, a golden retreiver with human level intelligence. The other, a failure, an ugly creature created with a feirce urge to kill. Known only as the Outsider, the creature hates the dog because represents the goodness and light of genetic engineering, and the Outsider itself represents only darkness and hate. After the dog escapes from Banodyne laboratory, the Outsider follows it out of rage, and will stop at nothing to hunt it down and kill it. Travis and Nora are two people who befriend the dog, and get caught in the middle of this confrontation. The characters sparkle with life, and the writing style makes you feel like you are actually inside the book. You laugh and cry along with the characters, share their joy and sorrow, their excitement and their pain. Like I said before, this is quite possibly the best book ever written, and quite probably the best Dean Koontz has ever written.
