Scary suspense novel that kept me engrossed from start to finish. I enjoyed it. ( ) It has been probably a decade since I read this book but I still remember it very well. That alone says a lot about the book since I read constantly. Carol and Paul are living the American dream until one night when a mysterious teenager shows up at their house. Due to unusual circumstances, they take the child into their home. Things began to happen. Spooky things that force Carol and Paul to open their minds to the possiblity that the girl's appearance in their lives was no coincidence, no accident, but part of a cosmic plan. In life, we all wear masks every day. Sometimes even we do not know who we are. A reread as part of a book clearance plan. Though readers often find though Koontz in the horror or fantasy section, the best way to describe most of his books is supernatural thrillers. This, one of his earlier titles, is well-plotted, perhaps a little simplistic for true thriller aficionados of today, but is a fast, well-paced read although the end feels a little too fast and abrupt to me. I did enjoy "The Mask" alot, this was a good eerie novel dealing with reincarnation, it seemed obvious in the beginning, but like any Koontz novel the obvious lies within the unobvious, and when we are finally allowed to look outside the box, we are shown a bigger picture than originally thought. I did enjoy the supernatural element, but The Mask did have a few flaws that kept it from greatness: One being, that Koontz, never really explains the supernatural element that was tipping off the main charactors; were the spirits good or bad? Also, the book ended too abruptly,It was wrapped up in 10 pages. We never know the fate of the charactors, did they live happily ever after? But over all I'll try to stay positive and "The Mask" is a good early novel for Dean Koontz. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

She had appeared out of nowhere... in the middle of traffic, on a busy day, in front of Carol's car. A teenager with no past, no family - and no memories. Carol and Paul were instantly drawn to her, this girl they named Jane - she was the daughter they never had. It was almost too good to be true. Then the hauntings began..
