Odd Hours

The Odd Thomas series is one I've mostly enjoyed, Forever Odd to me was the worst of them and Odd Thomas being the best. The other two Brother Odd and Odd Hours are about the same to me, both a pretty good read but not quite as intense as Odd Thomas. That being said, I think Odd Hours is still worth the read if you like the Odd Thomas character. That is the key. There are some flaws but none you can't over look, the main thing I enjoy in these novels is how Odd reacts to the situations he's in. His wit and self-effacing humor are great along with the dialog between him and other characters. Nothing quite touches the dialog between Odd and P. Oswald Boone in the first book but there is still plenty of good dialog with other characters nonetheless. Try not to get too involved in the plot and enjoy the character for who he is, that is what makes this series in my opinion. Dean Koontz is a great story teller and really can develop a character well, Odd Thomas is his best to date for me. I'm hoping Koontz can grab the magic from Odd Thomas and put it in the next Odd book in the series.

The book "Odd Hours" was received in a timely fashion. The condition of the book was as described in the listing.
I am completely satisfied with this purchase and have awarded the distributor five (5) stars.

I nearly loved this one as much as the first Odd Thomas book. But there were a few things that held me back, but overall I would definately recomend reading it - especially if you are a Dean Koontz/Odd Thomas fan. I didn't like the mysterious new young female and her role in the ending just left me frustrated. The first end part of the book (if that makes sense) was excellent - I never saw any of it comming, I was too wrapped up in the rest of the book to think about it too much or think too far ahead and its proabably one of the most suspensful part of a book I have read in a while. I am guessing there is another comming but I am not happy about waiting for it

I really enjoy Dean Knootz, Odd Thomas' series. As all the Odd Thomas adventures this book kept my attention until the very end. I recommend this book to anyone that likes reading Dean Knootz novels.

Odd Thomas is a great character. Very sincere, gentle and caring. I love this series of books and am looking forward to another Odd Thomas book. I love reading books and I re-read them all the time. Thank you, Dean Koontz for giving me wonderful people and places to read about.
