Innocence by Dean Koontz

Innocence by Dean Koontz
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There are very few words to describe what kind of book Dean Koontz writes. They defy description. But one thing they all have in common is beautiful writing and wonderful characters and a very deep ability to make you think and wonder at this world we live in.
Innocence is no exception. I have to admit that I do not read the newest Koontz as soon as it is released. I always know that I have Koontz to rely on when I need to be enthralled.
I don't know if Mr. Koontz knows just how truly good he is. Twenty years ago when we lived in California I always had the great, good fortune to meet him and talk with him at his Book Carinval book releases. I once asked him how he got his ideas. He told me that he always had 3 books in his head. The one he was writing and the next two. This amazed me. I know he takes his craft seriously, he works hard at it, much to our benefit and delight.
When I had my publishing company I always was looking for another Koontz. They don't exist. He is original. And it seems so effortless.
In Innocence, not all is as it seems and try as you might, you cannot figure it out until it us revealed to you.
No spoilers here. Read this book and Addison Goodheart's story.. Keep a highlighter with you, because there are lines and sections that every reader would be inspired by. Mark them. Read them again and pass them on.
