Suspense/science fiction with a small love story included. Just under 500 pages with action and suspense all the way through.
I read this book years ago & just finished reading it again as I am doing with quite a few Koontz books. The story was still just as good & I had forgotten enough that it was easy to keep reading.
Super quick ship!! Perfect condition!!
I had to read this for a class - and it started out fine, but by the end it was all so convoluted it was a little difficult to care about the characters or what happened. I sort of wish the villain won.
Gripping from the first pages to the last, Midnight takes the reader on break-neck ride through the city of Moonlight Cove. Koontz has never been better in his characterization or his plotting, either.
7.5 / 10I used to love to read Koontz books, and after years of not reading anything of his, I picked up this book.
If you like scary, horror stories this is the book for you. You will not want to put it down and your knuckles will be white with fear!.
Set in an isolated California community named Moonlight Cove, this horror novel pays homage to some of the finest most chilling horror stories of the fifties. The citizens of Moonlight Cove are changing.
This is just one of the best Dean Koontz book ive read. i just didnt want to put it down.
Believability is always a difficult undertaking when writing suspense/horror type novels. Although one may be skeptical of agile, four-legged, flesh eating and self-metamorphosing humans, Koontz instills a high level of believability to Midnight, not so much with the villainous creatures featured in the novel, but with all primary characters and their development throughout the book.
This here's a retread of several other classic books, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Island of Doctor Moreau, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
Dean Koontz is a decent writer who falls short more times than not. Sometimes the suspense he delivers is powerful but lately I have been getting tired of his prose.
This is one of Dean Koontz's earlier novels and originally written in 1989 (and I was only 19 when I originally read it, boy do I feel old!).
Okay, I am for the most part a Dean Koontz fan, but that is not to say that I liked every one of his books. I didn't like Intensity and Odd Thomas.
Although the plot of this book is intriguing, Koontz seems to get lost in the details here. The few "action sequences" are spoiled by page after page of monotonous unnecessarily bland descriptions.
