Summary: The book that took away my Adult novel virginity
Review: This is the first Dean Koonts novel i ever read, and while it is not the best one he has written, it is one of my favorites. The story starts with a bang... and after the first chapter I just had to read more. The old lady was just psychotic and the way he describes her fashion disasters is so on key. The tension in the story is pretty much non-stop. The thrills are plenty and the dialogue is sharp and witty. Koontz is really gifted with descriptions and keeping intensity at the same time.

Summary: The Servants Of The Twilight
Review: The Servants Of Twilight,
In my opinion this is one of Dean Koontz better novels.
This book moves at a very good pace and manages to keep the reader on his or her toes. This is a tale of the coming of the Anti-Christ, or is it? Read the book and you decide.
The Servants Of Twilight are a religious group dedicated to destroying the Anti-Christ. Do they have the right person?
Christine Scavello and her son Joey are tossed into a nightmare. There seems to be no escape from this fanatical religious group. With the help of Charlie Harrison the Scavello's go on the lamb. But the mysterious Grace Spivey seems to be able to track the family anywhere.
I enjoyed this book immensely and highly recommend it to any would be Koontz reader. This book makes my top 5 Koontz reads. Enjoy!

Summary: Will Scare You And Make You Think
Review: The Servants Of Twilight(1984). Novel By Horror/Suspense Author Dean Koontz.

After developing quite a taste for Horror/Suspense novels with Stephen King, I naturally started looking for new authors to read, and, of course, Dean Koontz was my next likely pick. Anyways, 'The Servants of Twilight', originally titled 'Twilight', is a very poignant novel, breaching the subject of religious fanaticism and martyrism, something all to common in today's hostile world of religious terrorists. So, was I impressed or turned off by 'The Servants Of Twilight'? Read on to find out!

Plot-

Grace Spivey leads the Church of the Twilight, a religious cult determined to find and destroy the antichrist before he can rule the world for 1,000 years, called the "twilight" by Grace Spivey. She leads a cult of over 1,000 people, ranging from Policemen, Doctors, and Burglars. While Grace is looking for the Antichrist, middle-aged single wife Christine Scavello takes her 6-year old son Joey to the mall, where they are confronted by Spivey. She claims Joey "has to die" and "he will be killed". Spivey continues to harass them, peeking through their windows, killing their dog, and stalking them, and Christine hires Private Detective Charlie Harrison to find out who Grace Spivey is and protect them. As Grace Spivey amasses her followers and relates to them their new enemy(Joey), Christine is confronted with her worst nightmare: More than 1,000 people trying to kill her son Joey. From machine gun raids to car bombs, Christine must do all she can to save Joey, herself, and Charlie, putting her life on the line for those that she loves.

Writing/Opinions/Etc-

Dean Koontz has always struck me as a slightly sadistic author, and 'The Servants Of Twilight' is the best possible example of this. Imagine your loved one being hunted by thousands of people hellbent on killing him for fanatical and insane reasons. It doesn't seem likely, yet in today's hostile environment, it reminds us that nothing is impossible. Dean Koontz blends intense suspense with a believeable plot, and his ability to put the readers inside his character's head lets the story move incredibly fast. The subject matter is also very meaningful, and Koontz shows all the flaws in religion and human nature. Grace Spivey is the most unlikely villian, a frail old lady, but to hear her mad ravings and insane, yet powerful message lets the reader see the true horror inside of us all, waiting to be tapped; although the idea of believing her may seem far-fetched, I would imagine many would fall into her hold. The Servants of Twilight is a well-written, powerful novel that will strike a chord with any reader.

Overall, 'The Servants Of Twilight' is a classic Dean Koontz novel, capable of putting you on the edge of your seat and giving you nightmares later. The religious undertones, the believeable characters, and the realistic plot only help the novel, giving it a deep sense of suspense and mystery.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO FANS OF SUSPENSE NOVELS, THRILLERS, MYSTERIES, AND DEAN KOONTZ! SCARY, REALISTIC, AND VERY POIGNANT IN TODAY'S SOCIETY! CHECK IT OUT!
