Weekly ‘If Stephen King is the Rolling Stones of novels, Koontz is
the Beatles.’ Playboy ‘Dean Koontz writes page-turners,

World ‘Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose. Serious writers might do
well to study his technique.’ New York Times Book Review

right where popular culture swells into something larger, just as
it did for Homer, Shakespeare, and Dickens. He’s got the gift.’
