Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very good and exciting; TYPICAL KOONTZ
Review: This book was great. It wasn't one of his very best, but it was right up there with the very good ones! It has the supernatural touch, lots of suspense, very well done characters, one of his typical whack-o crazy guys, and the dog! Dean's imagination is working overtime in this one, which makes for his best books! As with most of his books, if you tell much that happens it takes away the fun for the reader. So I won't give you a synopsis. But it is DEFINITELY worth the read!!! (This one is not in the class with Lightning or Strangers, but is in the next notch just below!)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Tick Tock Tick Tock It's Time to Buy Dragon Tears
Review: This is a slow starting but eventual fast paced novel. The greatest Koontz character ever created lets you into his mind when he appears about half way through the book. That character named Woofer is a dog who gives the reader an insight into the way dogs actually think, ie being mainly obsessed with getting food. Woofer is a sensational character who although not a super intelligent dog like in other Koontz novels such as Watchers, is still the greatest character of the book. It's a shame he didn't appear a little earlier when the book hadn't yet picked up the pace.

Human characters in the book are also pretty interesting such as the detectives Harry Lyon and Connie Gulliver who are complete opposites but honest hard working police officers. Bryan (known as Tick Tock by his tormented) is an evil childish man with sensational supernatural powers who enjoys practicing his lethal powers while waiting to Become. He believes he is the next God whose job is to thin out the human population with the remainders holding him in awe and fear. He targets the two detectives for his next victims but they won't die without a fight.

Although starting a bit slow this book especially the second half is a sensational thriller and you really will enjoy meeting Woofer. Buy Dragon Tears just to meet him alone.
