Okay, I know, hardly Tolstoy.

I needed something quick and trashy for reading over the vacation and I came across this series.

Altogether too much mayhem for a small town, but the charcacters are quite memorable.

The second book was good. Interesting that he hints at other supernatural stuff in a passing way.

I'm on to the third on a sunny deck with a beer by my side. It's in familiar territory for me - a monastery.

Hate to say it, but...I found them all a bit 'Odd'.

I have read a LOT of Dean Koontz's writing, but these just are not good examples of some of his better works.

I enjoyed these as a light read because I liked the quirky way the protagonist thinks.
