Helpful Score: 2

I know that some people don't like this book. I, however, really enjoyed Koontz's step away from the norm in this novel. The characters are original, and the story keeps you guessing about their connections until the end. The main character reflects on his life throughout the book, but I feel that most of this introspect adds to the storyline. The main characters both guard their emotions and histories until the end, so the added information is essential to understanding. This book is not a contemporary detective novel or the standard spook novel. This book kind of reminds me of a cross between the Phantom of the Opera and Neverland but darker. This book also speaks volumns about mankind and our quest for power. If you're looking for classic Koontz, you won't find it here. I'll give the book four and a half stars. I read the book in two days; it kept my interest. I hope to see more like this from Koontz.
