Publisher's Summary

No one could have imagined Odd Thomas ever leaving the perfect, quirky comfort of Pico Mundo, least of all Odd himself. The little desert town that nurtured Odd all his life is the locus of everything he holds dear: his loyal friends, his ghostly confidants, and the place where he loved and lost his soul mate, the irreplaceable Stormy Llewellyn. Yet leave it he has, to embrace the solitude and peace of an isolated monastery high in the western mountains as he tries to find a way to live fully again.

But Odd has a knack for finding himself in the path of trouble no matter where he goes — even among the eccentric monks in their sanctuary and with his steady spirit companion, the King of Rock 'n' Roll, at his side. For a killer is stalking the ancient holy halls, and Odd is about to meet an enemy who eclipses any he has yet encountered.

What the critics say

"The nice young fry cook with the occult powers is Koontz's most likeable creation." (The New York Times)
"An irresistibly offbeat mix of supernatural horror and laugh-out-loud humor." (Publishers Weekly)

what? really?

I think it wasn't as well written as the previous stories. it was less entertaining and the plot wasn't as well put together. I'll try the next book out because I enjoy Odd's adventures but hopefully they are more interesting than this one.

Just So Good.

Characters, writing and story: top notch. I absolutely love this series so far. Koontz can do to YA what he does to Horror. Yet at 38, I enjoy both those genres, under his penmanship, quite equally.
