Summary: Classic Example of Why I'm afraid to spend money on Koontz
Review: Don't get me wrong, at times I love Koontz. I think Phantoms, Whispers, House of Thunder, and Intensity are among his best. BUT the other extreme are his characters that are super-perfect and overcome such odds that it left me rolling my eyes in exasperation. Also the ending greatly disapointed me. "Was" he or "Wasn't" he? There is no closure. Don't waste your time! Along with 'The Mask' one of Koontz's worst ever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You'll sleep the next day from being up all night.
Review: Koontz has outdone himself this time. Suspenseful and spellbinding, Servants makes one watch their back. So realistic and detailed you hear and feel yourself telling the characters to act on their emotions. You'll be reading well into the morning and then some. Outstanding!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Servents of Twilight, best book ever....
Review: I really felt this book was great. At the very beginning I thought to myself, 'oh just another stupid story about a cult' (I don't read much...) but as the story progresses I see how beautifully Dean Koontz writes. He is amazing, I will soon read Ice bound I hope... if I can find my copy I think I lost it under my bed...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best I have read.
Review: This book was filled with suspense, I could hardly put it down. This is a masterpiece to go along with many of this others.

Summary: Very different and very good book.
Review: Smart book that keeps you hooked from beginning to end. You tend to believe one side out of plain common sense and then you tend to believe the other. Even if you don't like the book, you will want to finish it just to know what to believe. Even though the plot is not believable (SINCE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS GOD!), it is very enjoyable if you just remember it is a book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a real-page turner.....I couldn't put it down
Review: I loved this book from the first few paragraphs. I found myself taking it everywhere I went. I was even reading it at work inbetween customers. I read this book about 2 years ago, and still think about it occasionally. I was so engrosed in it, I couldn't wait to finish it.....sometimes missing a whole nights' sleep. I would reccomend this book to anyone looking for a REAL adventure.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not what I expected!
Review: This is my second Koontz book and I was dissappointed. I first read TICK TOCK in three days. It was great. But this book, on the other hand, isn't. It started out right to the point and had identafiable characters, but then 250 pages I put it down. It just became to dull and predictable!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you only read one book in your entire life, read this one
Review: From the first page I couldn't put it down. The characters are very well defined. You'll love the good guys and detest the bad guys. What's going on on the next page? Dean Koontz will make you gasp out loud. Read it. Read it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good...Until the Ending
Review: "The Searvents of Twilight" is exciting from the beginning, engrossing the reader in the story. The characters have realistic backgrounds, and the cult that the story centers around could quite possibly exist. The plot moves fast, and though it occasionally becomes predicatable, there are enough plot twists to keep it interesting.

However, towards the end of the book, it somehow loses its glamour. The characters, who had until this point behaved so realistically, start to perform virtually superhumans tasks. Also, the conclusion brings up telepathy and clairvoyance...something that I could have accepted if it had been thrown in in the beginning, but something very unsatisfying as an explanation to the many mysteries of the novel. Finally, the theme of the novel had a few intriguing points, but basically ended up flatly contradicting common sense.

All in all, the plot and excitement of the book are good (though not excellent)...probably a 4-star rating. However, the ending brings it down at least one mark. Probably a good bet if you're a fan of Tom Clancy, but not one of Koontz's best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Twilight was never so shiny!!!!
Review: This book is one of the greatest novels I have read in a long time. It is supenseful and intruiguing. This is a book you would make a movie out of and gross big in the box office. I see Courtney Cox as Christine Scavello and Brad Pitt as the PI. It was a supenseful page turner from the very beginning.
