 I enjoy Dean Koontz books for the story, but more for the insight into human relationships and universal truths. While this was an interesting read filled with suspense, it lacked the depth I have come to expect after reading The Face and In the Corner of His Eye.

 The first book I ever read by Dean Koontz that started the whole thing. In my opinion this is still one of his best books. He is one of my favorite authors! LOVE him!

 Picked it up at an airport to kill time.

Predictable, with every suspense/horror novel cliche thrown in.

Only redeeming point is that Koontz takes the reader through the process of becoming a zombie from that person's perspective.

Too bad he wastes so many words and pages doing it.

I literally felt cheated having paid good money for this book.

 It was the extreme of science fiction to me. It was the pinnacle of horror with some funny pieces throughout the masterpiece. There were some slivers of gore that were a little over the edge but overall a very interesting read.

 Reading the other reviews on the book, it seemed most either thought it was good or bad, one of the two extremes, no in betweens. I thought it was good! Sure, it was predictable, I knew who was bad and who was good. But the momentum the book kept at was great; Koontz knew just what to write to trigger my suspense genes, making me frantically flip through the book, my heart pounding as Rachel ran from Eric. It was scary, especially when we exist in a world where a lot of things are made possible with genetic engineering. Let's just hope no one ever figures out how to cheat death.
