Synopsis

“[Odd Thomas is] one of the most remarkable and appealing characters in current fiction.” —The Virginian-PilotThere's room at the inn. But you might not get out.Nestled on a lonely stretch along the Pacific coast, quaint roadside outpost Harmony Corner offers everything a weary traveler needs—a cozy diner, a handy service station, a cluster of motel rooms…and the Harmony family homestead presiding over it all. But when Odd Thomas and company stop to spend the night, they discover that there’s more to this secluded haven than meets the eye—and that between life and death, there is something more frightening than either.“Koontz gives [Odd Thomas] wit, good humor, a familiarity with the dark side of humanity—and moral outrage.” —USA Today“Supernatural thrills with a side of laughs.” —The Denver Post

Got all excited in the early pages at the mention of Moonlight Bay. I thought Koontz was FINALLY going to give us a return to the story of Christopher Snow, a character I liked even better than Odd Thomas. No, apparently, they just drove past on the way to Harmony Corners. Nobody there who particularly caught my interest, so I moved on. Might as well face it. Chris, his other fans, and me have been abandoned.

Goodreads review by Matthew on January 15, 2019

Basically, I could start every review of an Odd Thomas book with the following sentence: It started off a little slow and strange, so it took a while to get into . . . After that, there is no telling which way it will go. The last two entries were okay, but I was wondering if the series had jumped the......more

Ahhh Odd, I do love this character, just a nice regularly fry cook with a sixth sense. I'm glad I've now got myself back into this series. This is a YA series, and everything centers around Odd Thomas and his adventures. This is the fifth book in the eight book series and I was pleased that while boo......more

Why have I not read Dean Koontz until now? Cowardice. I incorrectly assumed his works would be disgusting and night-mare provoking. One of those that saturate the bookstores with their evil masochism and leave you so viscerally shaken up that you hate humanity and wish you lived on a different plane......more

Goodreads review by Cody | CodysBookshelf on February 28, 2017

I started reading Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas series in fall 2014, months before I began blogging in earnest. I read Odd Hours in November of that year — so it has been a while. I liked Odd Hours but didn't love it; I'd become burned out on the adventures of ole Oddie. His awkward self-deprecating humo......more
