Watchers

Read this multiple times several years ago. One of my faves of all time.

Really good storyline, waaaaaaaaaaay too descriptive though, I mean there is only so much detail and deep meaning people need...and the immortal guy didn't seem to really have much of a purpose other than offing people. I want a dog like Einstein! I loved the scrabble pieces idea, and I wanted to cry when the Outsider got to him.

Pacing and chilling elements aren't as strong as Phantoms, but the characters felt more prominent in Watchers.

This was my first Dean Koontz novel. I enjoyed the story. It had some boring moments where I lost interest and it was hard to keep reading, but I am really glad I stuck with it. The ending made the book well worth the read! Einstein and Nora were my favorite characters.

Older book and by no means up to today's thrillers but still a goodie.
