 Another Great One September 25, 2008
Another great addition to the Odd Thomas series. The same witty humor, intellect and light suspense that I've come to love with this infamous character. As with the previous books, Odd Hours can be considered a stand alone book, yet I highly recommend starting at the first in the series to fully grasp the 'id' of this character.
 What happened to Odd Thomas? September 30, 2008
This book was disappointing from the beginning. Odd Thomas has apparantly been kidnapped and replaced by someone pretenting to be him. His sense of humor, self, and morals are very unlike the previous Oddie - and I won't even bring up the gun. The characters were hard to like and one of the main ones - completely annoying. I am not even sure that Dean Kootnz wrote this book - the writing style is so different. My advice, if you love Odd Thomas - skip this book and wait for the next one. Maybe Mr. Koontz will snap out of the "fog" that he was in while writing this one.
 Not Odd ... different October 3, 2008
I agree with the readers who said this was not the Odd the know and love. This book was so unlike the the Odd character. The gunning down of terrorists ... it seemed like I was reading about a Special Ops agent. As far as Annamaria ... If Koontz wasn't going to give even a hint of what her character was about he should have left her out unil he was ready to do so. So for that reason I found her character just plan annoying and silly. Hutch was great and a couple other characters. But I should have passed on this "Odd" adventure.
Another Dean Koontz Oddity October 9, 2008
As usual Dean does it again with Odd. As with all Dean Koontz stories you're captured right from the first page. Because it's an Odd series you already know you are hooked even before you opened the book. So for all of us Dean and Odd fans just sit back and read yourself into another great book. Live Odd's life and when you are done, sit back and try and figure out what goes on in Dean's mind. Boy he must be weird to live with. Aren't we glad!
 Can not go wrong with Koontz... October 11, 2008
This was my first "Odd" book by Koontz, but I enjoyed it just the same. Dean was able to capture my imagination and weave a rich story that was so colorful, yet somewhat dark that kept me turning the pages. Dean knows how to really make characters come to life and ones that can touch your life, which is what he did so magically in this story. Throughout this story I could almost feel the damp ocean air as "Odd" won you over.
