i love dean koontz. i think he's better than stephen king, although king runs a close second favorite. my very favorite of his works is strange highways, i love it. i have it on tape and have listened to it so many times!

another favorite is the hideaway, i adore the little girl. so much character!

so what are your favorites?

My favorite would have The Face. Such a beautiful and haunting book. I'm surprised he is not very recognized such as Stephen King is.

true, and on the whole, when turned into movies, his stories have lost something. hideaway was a good flick, but they should have left the little girl the way she was.

My favorites are (in no particular order)

One door away from Heaven
From the corner of his eye
By the light of the moon

I really enjoy most of his books are those would be my top three. I am probably the only person who does not enjoy his odd thomas series.

Yeah Koontz novels are really good.
The first one I ever read was False Memory, which was years ago, but I remember really liking it and going to the library to find more of his books.
