“A rarity among bestselling writers, Koontz continues to pursue new ways of telling stories, never content with repeating himself.”
“Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose. ‘Serious’ writers… might do well to examine his technique.”
“[Koontz] has always had near-Dickensian powers of description, and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”
“Koontz is a superb plotter and wordsmith. He chronicles the hopes and fears of our time in broad strokes and fine detail, using popular fiction to explore the human condition.”
“Characters and the search for meaning, exquisitely crafted, are the soul of [Koontz’s] work… . One of the master storytellers of this or any age.”
“A literary juggler.”
