Narrative As Books Winter Moon
In Los Angeles, a hot Hollywood director, high on PCP, turns a city street into a fiery apocalypse. Heroic LAPD officer Jac McGarvey is badly wounded and will not walk for months. His wife and his child are left to fend for themselves against both criminals that control an increasingly violent city and the dead director's cult of fanatic fans.In a lonely corner of Montana, Eduardo Fernandez, the father of McGarvey's murdered partner, witnesses a strange nocturnal sight. The stand of pines outside his house suddenly glows with eerie amber light, and Fernandez senses a watcher in the winter woods. As the seasons change, the very creatures of the forest seem in league with a mysterious presence. Fernandez is caught up in a series of chilling incidents that escalate toward a confronation that could rob him of his sanity or his life or both.
As events careen out of control, the McGarvey family is drawn to Fernandez's Montana ranch. In that isolated place they discover their destiny in a terrifying and fiercely suspenseful encounter with a hostile, utterly ruthless, and enigmatic enemy, from which neither the living nor the dead are safe.

I've always been a HUGE fan of Stephen King and have read some of the books multiple times... People would advise me to try out Dean Koontz as a replacement and I'd go along with it.... Pick up a Koontz and start reading with this thought at the back of my head....a feeling intactA feeling that I was cheating on KING with his poor cousin. I'd feel guilty and a little ashamed and I'd put the book down and tell people it wasnt very good....Well, I finally read a Koontz all the way through and II enjoyed this book,review to come.
One word:O_OOkay, I know that's not a word.But, still:O_O
**CAUTION - CONTAINS SPOILERS!***(as written on date read)Brief Summary: A cop finds himself the heir to a ranch in the middle of Montana of where the previous owner had seen and heard weird occurances in the woods behind shortly before his untimely death.The book started out good. Lots of suspense. It was the classic Koontz in action giving Mr. King a run for his money. First, the odd things happening in the middle of the woods. Then the fear of the unknown and evil.Described excellently, you
I love Dean Koontz's books because you just never know what his rich imagination is going to come up with...but whatever it is it's always a huge surprise. This is one of the scariest books that he's written in all of the years I have had the pleasure of reading his works. Usually there is a suspenseful story with some horror moments thrown in....this one has a dark undertone with both gory and psychological horror from the start to finish. The book is actually two stories in parallel... Jack
Underrated! Highly recommended for horror/Koontz fans!This is Koontz scariest boook that i've come across in the twenty or so i've read by him. Usually, Koontz writes a mostly suspensful story with some horror moments here and there. This book is the prime example of writing with a dark undertone throughout the story, giving you the feeling that something bad is going to happen.My real rating for this book is four and a half stars, only because the first half of the book, the first story line is
Contained some of the most compelling and gripping horror reading that I have ever done. Excellent.
