Summary

Strange days....
Winter gripped the city. Terror gripped it, too. They found four corpses in four days, each more hideous than the last.

Strange nights....
At first the cops thought they were dealing with a psychopath. But soon they heard eerie sounds in the ventilation system - and saw unearthly silver eyes in the snow-slashed night.

Final hours....
In a city paralyzed by a blizzard, something watches, something stalks.

Dire!

Good narration if you excuse the female voices - but terrible, predictable story.
No suspense at all
Best avoided

Frustrating

It’s enjoyable and brilliantly read/performed but has really irritating moments. For instance (Possibly a spoiler so stop reading)…… his kids are literally about to be torn to pieces but he insists they put there coats and boots on before leaving the apartment as it’s snowing, rather than grabbing the cloths and running. Or when mafia gangsters are helplessly torn apart and his kids are then threatened with the same end but he thinks they’ll be fine and instead goes and bonks his girlfriend leaving the kids with there aunt ! What the …..

Koontz is fascinating darkness.

I love koontz & this is no different. He weaves a fast paced tale with characters you care about & evil that you fear.

Very good

A very enjoyable story, well read. It's your standard Koontz stuff, no better or worse than anything else he's written. An entertaining horror story about voodoo.
