Summary: Simply The Best
Review: Watchers is by far Dean Koontz's best novel! I could not put this book down! If you like Dean Koontz you will love this book! That's why it's simply the best!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dean Koontz's best!
Review: I got this book a while ago. I had started reading it but stopped, then a couple of months ago I picked it up again and started reading. It was the first Dean Koontz book I'd read, and I couldn't put it down. I finished it in a week. Since then I've read Winter Moon, Phantoms, and Whispers. I advise, no, I order you to read this book!

Rating: 4 stars
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.

Rating: 5 stars
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!

Rating: 3 stars
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.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Scary as HELLo everyone
Review: Thrilling, suspenseful, heart wrenching and just down right genius. That's about all I have to say about that.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Univerally revered as Koontz's best book
Review: Most people think that this is Koontz's best novel and it it's the one that I recomend to people who have never read Koontz before. To anyone who has never read the book before or has never read Dean Koontz, I say read this book! It is just good fun reading folks!

Rating: 5 stars
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.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best ever!
Review: This is by far Koontz's best novel. I've read it several times.

Rating: 5 stars
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
