DESCRIPTION:
"NICE ENDING" according to mike. Koontz is a prolific writer with endless plot ideas. It is impossible to hit a home run every time. It starts out with a mystical undercurrent that drives the story. Almost like a fatalism that cannot be controlled. When they get to the mill there are long periods of redundancy. Koontz puts words together beautifully, always. But this one didn't have the page by page appeal that a masterpiece like "Innocence" had for me.. The New Koontz I like the new Koontz. Some will say the story is not good because this is a new and gentler Koontz but I like him!. This story is about a man who is driven to save some people through an inexplicable psychic communication. He gives up everything to follow what he thinks might be his Godly communications. A reporter is at the scene of one of his rescues and is intrigued. She tries to interview him but gets nothing substantial. She takes vacation time to inves. Great story Captivating tale. Colorful characters, and a very intricate plot. I couldn't put this down. I believe this would make a great motion picture, without any change in story.
