Book Reviews of Brother Odd (Odd Thomas Novels)
Book Review: Couldn't put my iPod down
Summary: 5 Stars
I listened to the audio version, which uses a great narrator who captures Odd's voice perfectly. This book was better and more suspenseful and action-packed than "Forever Odd." I enjoyed a new setting - a monastery - and the new supernatural mysteries really kept me interested. I enjoyed Koontz's social commentary asides, but perhaps I agree with him. I really couldn't put this audio-book down once I got to a certain point. I highly recommend this, and I can't wait to get the next one!Book Review: Brother Odd
Summary: 4 Stars
Never expecting Dean Koontz to write a series, I was surprised, but pleased, to see Odd Thomas reappear in more books. While the book sticks to Koontz' mix of scary and bizarre, the characters are normal and enchanting. I never expected to think of a protagonist of his as sweet, but Odd is. He copes with all the strangeness in his life and whatever frightening situation he finds himself in with grace, humor (very important to me), and compassion.Book Review: Keep Em Coming!
Summary: 5 Stars
Brother Odd lived up to and I think exceeded the other Odd Thomas books. It kept me turning the pages and neglecting my work until I could devour it all. The only problem with a wonderful page turner is figuring out what to read after you've zipped to the end. All I can say is keep em coming. As a general rule, books tend to peter out after the second sequel, but the Odd Thomas books just get better and better. I can't wait for the next one.Book Review: Dean Koontz is a master literati with a great story
Summary: 5 Stars
Mf. Koontz didn't disappoiint me. He never does. This book is fantastic. It continues the story of Odd Thomas in the third book about him and each one gets better and better. A must read for all readers, not just Koontz fans. You can't call yourself a serious reader if you don't experience Koontz' mastery of the English language. It is entertaining in itself regardless of the book's subject matter.Book Review: Dan Koontz' Brother Odd
Summary: 1 Stars
I have read all of Dean Koontz' novels and sorry to say "Brother Odd" was, by far, the worst. Although my goal is to read every one of his, it was a struggle getting through this one. Fitting in a multitude of characters by making them religious brothers just made no sense and having them be experts in certain timely things made even less sense. Sorry Dean, but you really didn't do well on this one.
