Well, I looked in the postings to see what was said in the "details" tab - nothing! This book hasn't been posted in any binding by anyone!

I'll give you a little synopsis of the plot ---

Tommy Phang (OH!!! The narrator of this on is B.D.Wong, the psychiatrist of Law & Order fame) a Vietnames immigrant is trying to escape a home-brewed spell that has gone amok. The story races through a terror-filled night as Tommy and his new friend, Deliverance Payne, try to outsmart a demon bent on murder.

I think the best thing about this audio is B.D. Wong's expert narration! He gives you subtle tempo variations, fluctuations in tone and volume. He manages to keep you riveted to the story as trhe plot unfolds, and carries you on to the conclusion better than any recent "reader" I have listened to.

If you are expecting another Koontz Horror-fest, hold on. This one has comical sprinkles all over it. Something new and different for ol' Koontzy.

I really enjoyed this audi, I think and hope you will as well. Hey, it's not like you're paying the normal $39.95 to listen to it.
