Closer...
They found the town silent, apparently abandoned. Then they found the first body strangely swollen and still warm. One hundred fifty were dead, 350 missing. But the terror had only begun in the tiny mountain town of Snowfield, California.

...and closer...
At first, they thought it was the work of a maniac. Or terrorists. Or toxic contamination. Or a bizarre new disease.

...and closer...
But then they found the truth. And they saw it in the flesh. And it was worse than anything any of them had ever imagined.

this book was well written and the voice was perfect. I listen at 1.75x.

This book falls way short of Mr. Koontz regular quality of writing.
I couldn't get beyond some unrealistic
characters. Teenager speaking with a maturity and life wisdom of a 50 year-old therapist.. Any teenager finding themselves in a situation like that would have a compete mental breakdown, not walking down memory lane with an older sister who she doesn't know from Adam.

This book is not one of Mr. Koontz's better works.

Overall a great premise with interesting concepts. The delivery was more mixed. On one hand, the action and horror elements are well done and genuinely creepy/intense. On the other, the dialogue and overall style are heavy on exposition, hand-holding the reader where a much more subtle approach and allowing the reader to fill in the gaps would have felt more natural and less patronizing.
Overall: good horror/tension, pulpy dialogue and excessive exposition. Would recommend for a light read (for adults), or a horrifying read for late teens/early 20’s young adults.

Good premise, mixed delivery

But it had its moments. Wasn't as much gore as there was at the beginning ether.

Not as creepy as I was hoping for

Awesome novel. Awesome narration! I highly recommend listening to this book, just not at night time as some parts scared me and I had odd scary dreams...but that is how deep I was into this book!

awesome book!
