I love Oddie and thee new characters in this book are quite interesting. It is sad to know we are coming to the end of this series. There are always things that make me chuckle in these books while he tries to save people. In this book, we have the ghost of Alfred Hitchcock helping him out with some new twists and turns and a new lady in his life that I intermediately fell in love with. On to the next book and then, goodbye Odd Thomas Being the 6th book in a series, I can see how sometimes it can start to feel a bit 'dried out'. As the story continues Odd's journey to whatever, Koontz does get a bit depressing. There were a couple parts that I felt just bogged down the reading, and though may have shown a bit of Odd's internal turmoils & thoughts, seemed a tad bit much. I sloughed through those sections and the action part of the story was fine. Overall it wasn't a bad read considering how much I have enjoyed the other books in the series, but I feel that the direction this one seemed to lead towards is getting a bit too much "out there". I am still interested in how all this ties together at and end at some point, and will have to wait again for a future installment. I am a huge fan of the Odd Thomas series and I enjoyed travelling with Oddie again, but this installment was heavy on the politics and very light on the story. There were a couple of chapters where very little happened and the action/story seemed a mere backdrop for the cultural and political criticism. Odd doesn't like the reality TV. He also is distrusting of the government. I get it. But I came here for the story. If you stripped away the commentary you would have been left with a semi-interesting novella. Not the most compelling story line of what I think is a very good series. I did like how it sets up what is probably going to be a very good 7th and final installment in the chronicle of the Odd one. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Also, there are the villains from the other side of our normal existence just to add a touch of the supernatural to the story. ( )
