![]() ![]() This one was pretty much straight Koontz formula. I mean, there's absolutely no relationship between this and Watchers, right? There isn't a dog in every single one of his novels, right? There aren't psychos and anarchists and just plain murderers abounding in any of his other novels, right? There aren't slightly flawed heroes and heroines suddenly propelled into situations way out of their league, right? It was almost as if I've read this novel before. (Kids are a lesser priority, but let's face it, dogs are cuter.) ) No breakaway gimmick, no over-the-top message beyond treating dogs well. Unfortunately, it just doesn't stand out that much from any of Koontz's other novels. I mean, there were a lot of murderers and anarchists, there was the healing power of a golden retriever, and there was a mentally handicapped kiddo and some genuinely nice people who were our heroes. I wish I could say I liked this novel more. ![]()
