Reviews
Love for a child
4By karenindixieStrong and never yielding love for a child is the base of this book. I enjoyed reading this older Koontz book much more than a newer book - Quicksilver. Door to December gave me characters I could cling to and feel empathy for during their struggle against an impossible evil. The book is weighted down with soul-searching that goes too deep, but overall a great story.Riveting. Couldn’t put it down.
5By Pam96706Pure Koontz. There is something terrifying and comforting in this, as in most books by this author.Excellent
5By FeetyPJsAs usual, koontz is awesome.Page turner!
5By dancin evergreenCould not put this book down. Bravo, Mr.KoontzOpening the door to a nightmare...
5By ES the horror fanAnother fantastic book from the incomparable Dean Koontz, especially for those who enjoy a spooky supernatural thriller! The story is about what happens to a kidnapped girl and her abductors when she escapes six years after being kidnapped. That’s all I will tell you. This story is too good to spoil. Read and get ready to held in suspense, terrified, thrilled, and entertained! It’s a thick book, but that’s okay because you won’t be ready for it to end too soon!Loved it!
5By uhhangieI honestly was obsessed with this book at the age of 14. I gave this book to all of my friends and they absolutely got hooked as well! I loved this book because it was something new to read. I honestly have this a 5 because it is my favorite book by far.Door to December
2By Bigmo972111It was a interesting book. I was very disappointed in the ending. I've actually read icebound also and the ending sucked also.Too many fillers.
2By beachcowgirlNot his best. The mother/psychologist seemed very naive.
