Summary: Compeling characters and a horrifying plot.
Review: This book is a great book. Not only because of its characters, but because of its setting. It takes placce in a small town in Northern California called Moonlight Cove. Now the fact that it takes place in a small , in the middle of nowhere town is what makes it scary. The characters that Dean Koontz has made up are especially great, because the ages have a huge range. They go from a 12 year old girl to a 50 year old paralyzed man. In this little town citizens are changing. They are changing into their worst nightmare. Why, because of an amber liquid, and because of the Moonhawk Project. I think this book is great, although you have to have a lot of patience, because it is very detailed and long, but it doesn't last.

Summary: a real nail-biter
Review: This has got to be one of his best novels, that is until he kicks out another one, he has so many really. It's a fast read, its spooky, and there's mystery and then it's just really scarey. Read it and you too will be a Koontz fan, thanks Dean. Where does he come up with this stuff?

Summary: One of my favorites
Review: From the opening scenes to the climatic finish, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. Suspenseful and character driven, two of the aspects of Dean's books I admire, propels this book to the top of my Top Ten, almost supplanting Watchers. The villain is totally whacked, a kind of present day Frankenstein(the Doctor, not the monster) subjecting his victims to the horrors that he himself will not submit to. Will there be a movie?

Summary: Oh, Perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This has GOT to be one of Koontz's best books! The corrupted mind of science goes haywire in this classic. Koontz takes us through the frightened minds of four scared, but very determined people (and one dog), and finishes the book off with a bang - literally. The burn marks are still on my wrists. Wish I could write more, but my doctor's telling me to get on the stretcher - for the 406th time. Ciao

Summary: A great thriller. . .
Review: In my opinion, MIDNIGHT is one of Koontz best novels. The gory descriptions scattered throughout the novel will keep your heart racing. And like most Koontz novels, the action jumps right out at the beginning and doesn't quit until the end. I especially like the way the stories characters must creep through the night constantly being chased by those horrible computer monster things. It keeps you at the edge of your seat because you never know when one of the monsters is going to jump out of nowhere. This book is a must for anyone who enjoys cutting edge suspence. And if you like this, you may want to try another book by Koontz called WATCHERS

Summary: Not-so-bad but Not-too-good
Review: I wouldn't say that it's one of the best Koontz novel (even if there are many that claim so). It's just an avarage story with nothing special and nothing original. The caracters are excellent although and the suspense is real good (as in all of the Koontz's books

Rating:
Summary: Very plausable, especially in today's techno computer world
Review: Koontz uses two popular vehicle's to drive this novel: computer's gone mad and a very smart dog! An unbeatable combination! Both are plausable, which creates both a thriller good enough to make your hair stand on end and warm your heart with a lovable dog named Moose. He is a trained assistance dog to help his handicapped master. Moose's training is based on a real program called Canine Companion's for Independence. Dogs like Moose are very real. Just like Koontz's novels.

Summary: A frightening page-turner that sizzles.
Review: The first book I read by Koontz, and easily one of his best. There are scenes in this book that frighten me to this day. Koontz's ability to create such a horrific scenario and drag you through it breathlessly is incredible. This book never skips a beat, however, you might feel your heart skip quite a few before the book is over. A top recommendation.

Summary: Exciting, but very spooky!
Review: I've read the book, Midnight, some weeks ago. It was the 35th of Koontz's books. It is SO good and exciting, and eventhough it's a very big book, it lasted three days. The best part was the way, it was writen. When he is sad, one is sad, and so on. It is also very special. afterwards I couldn't help thinking about it. It has lots of spooky elements. I say YOU should read it. Morten Barklund, 15 Denmark

Summary: Details of horror unfold with every page in Moonlight Cove.
Review: Excellent story in which, each page tells descriptive horror of a take-over in the town of Moonlight Cove. From Adults to children everyone is turning up dead or converted and no one know how or why. FBI agent Sam Booker and his friends try to uncover the truth as they try not to be killed or converted along the way
