has anybody read the book watchers by dean koontz?

Question

what did you think

have you seen the movie

what is his best book in your opinion

is coming out with any new books soon

Answer 1

Haven't read this one but he is my favorite author FUNHOUSE got me hooked also enjoyed INTENSITY and THE DOOR TO DECEMBER

Answer 2

I have read watchers and I liked it very much. I am a big fan of Koontz' writing.

The last book to come out is Brother Odd. It is from a series of 3 books so far about a young man who sees the dead who haven't crossed over yet...many times because they were murdered, etc. The first book was Odd Thomas, then Forever Odd.....he sees things he call bodach's that are something like black spirits that thrive on devistation so when he sees them, he knows that something bad is coming. In the first book he had a girl friend....all of that evolved resulting in the last book Brother Odd. They really are a good series and I don't like series books. The way this one ended, I am pretty sure there will be another.

The book that got me started reading Koontz was Mr. Murder, it was enough to get me hooked. The most memoriable book was Intensity, but the movie was a bare minimum reflection of the book. Phantams was an awesome book that was made into a movie which wasn't too bad. I think they are going to make The Husband into a movie.

If you read earlier Koontz and new Koontz you will see a definate change in his way of writing and the stories that he writes. I think he is awesome. He has a website that will send you e-mail when a new book is about to come out.

Answer 3

I read Dean Koontz's Watchers. I really didn't get into the story as much as I have in past books, but all in all it was ok. In my opinion his best book is the Door to December. I'm not sure if he as any new books coming out.

Answer 4

Watchers is the best book Dean Koontz has ever written, and I've read all of them. The movie wasn't so great. Have you read Lightening? It too was wonderful. The latest book, that I know about, is Husband.

Answer 5

I have never read watchers but I love Dean Koontz. I thikn my Fav right now is Life Expectancy. It was an excellent read. I recommend it to my friends and family all the time. They are all so different and interesting. I wish I didn't hae to go to work and could spend my day reading books.

Answer 6

this was the first book of koontz' that i ever read, i've read every one since and own them all in hardback.... that's how good it was! The movie was disappointing as usual, nothing compares to a book. It's hard to choose a favorite but, the dark rivers of the heart is haunting. I just finished the husband, great, and am currently reading brother odd. you can't go wrong with koontz!

Answer 7

I have not read Watchers, but I have just started reading some of his other books, Like Odd Thomas and Forever Odd. I am waiting for his next book to come out in paperback, Brother Odd. Also, I read Mr. Murder, good book.

Answer 8

I thoroughly enjoyed the book Watchers. I saw 10 minutes of the movie a few years after I read the book. Corey Haim is in it and the little I saw of Wathcers was unbearable to "watch", no pun intended.

I also read Lightning which definitely kept me interested. I don't remember the titles of the others I've read. His books are very entertaining, fast reads but they strike me as somewhat formulaic.

Answer 9

I did read that book....it and LIghtning are my favorites...He comes out with a new book every month I swear....He just released a new one called brother odd (i think) however it is the third in the odd series....He has about 300 books out now....don't worry every time you go to the store or to the library there should be a new one out..

Answer 10

The book is excellent, The movie was not great but worth seeing.

My favorite book of his is servants of twilight. It was so creepy.
