I've only read The Servants of Twilight and The Darkest Evening of the Year and The Taking. Are there any other books by him you recommend?

I've read Intensity - I think that's what it was. That was very good. I could never finish False Memories because it scared me too much. Not to mention it's about 700 or so pages in length.

Koontz is fun. ^_^

I read Velocity. It's really good. It's about a guy that gets these papers that says, "If you report this to the police, I'll kill a school teacher. If you don't report this to the police, I'll kill an elderly lady. The choice is yours. You have until midnight."

Yeah. Pretty intense. I never did finish it though. I wonder how it ends.

Would love help on this.

Take that, Lumi.

Intensity.

It's a bit disturbing in some parts, but then again what good book isn't? :D
Sgt: Now, it's quite simple to defend yourself against a man armed with a banana. First of all you force him to drop the banana; then, second, you eat the banana, thus disarming him. You have now rendered him 'elpless.

From the Corner of his Eye is phenomenal. Possibly ranking in my top ten favorite books of all time list.

Read it.

*foams at the mouth*

Right now I'm reading Tick Tock, and even though I'm only three chapters in, I'd definitely recommend it.

Velocity is absolutely amazing, as is Life Expectancy and The Husband.

Actually, anything you pick up by Koontz has got to be good. There's no question to it.
