The Bad Place

Rating:
Summary: Extravagant
Review: I am one of his fans for a long time. He is my first author and probably be one of my last. This is the book that got me hooked to Dean. Kinda a slow in the beginning but it picked up and kept the attention going to the end. Finished the book in couple of hours. Truly a great book. Recommend all first Dean Koontz readers to read this book first!

Summary: My review on The Bad Place
Review: This is one of the best books I have read from Dean Koontz. This book has a good plot. When you first start, you have no clue to what is happening, but when you get into it, you can't put it down. I love how he has the supernatural teleporting in it. I would read this again if I hadn't started another book!

Summary: A TOP NOTCH THRILLER BY THE MASTER
Review: Having read over 20 Koontz books (and been rewarded every time), I feel this to be one of his best. Classic Koontz characters with the expected turns and twists with one of the best openings to any book I have read.

Summary: Great! A must read for Koontz fans.
Review: I thought this book was great. It had a lot of suspense and didn't leave you hanging at the end. He jumped from character to character a lot but he made sure you understood what was going on. Books like this one are what makes him the writer he is today.

Summary: The first book I read of koontz but wasn't the last, great!
Review: This book made me a big fan of Deans, I read every book I could get my hands on . Seemed he was getting in a hurry to put out books lately, not like Bad Place you could tell he took his time and made it good. Hopefully we'll get another one in that caliber. I recommend this book in paticular for first timers that like to get the hair to stand up on the back of your neck.

Summary: Good, though disjointed story
Review: Koontz writes well, but his method of simultaneously discussing several ongoing stories through very short chapters makes for a fragmented tale. The disjointed approach prevents the story from "flowing" smoothly along. He ties everything together nicely in the end, but it takes a little patience to make it through the first portion of the book. One area where Koontz does succeed is in keeping the reader's curiosity up, as he creates and sustains the desire to find out what happens to everyone in the end. Overall, it was nice light reading.

Summary: This book will make you a Koontz fan
Review: My uncle gave me this book to read and it was the best. I couln't put it down. It was mysterious and compelling. Since then I've read "Phantoms," "Shadowfires," "Eyes of Darkness," and "Whispers." "The Bad Place" was by far the best except "Phantoms." "The Bad Place" was cleverly writen and answered all of the questions the book brings to mind. And the answers aren't rediculous and stupid like other want-to-be great fiction authors. Read this book and you'll be a fan for Life!!!

Summary: DEAN KOONTZ FANS: READ THIS BOOK
Review: If you like Dean Koontz, you'll love this book. If you start reading it and it's a little boring toward the beginning, just wait, and it will get better. So if you've been trying to decide on a book to buy, PICK THIS ONE, and you'll be a Dean Koontz fan for life.

Summary: Bizarre and Confusing
Review: Although I am a big Dean Koontz fan and have read almost all of his books, "The Bad Place" is definitely not the one I would recommend. The plot is confusing and the characters simply too bizarre to bear. It seemed to me that Koontz had several ideas for different books and got them hopelessly mixed up. Getting through the first 40 pages was a drag!
