A fable about love and trust...with echoes of Frankenstein and The Island of Dr. Moreau. A breakthrough for Koontz."-- Kirkus Reviews "Displaying...more depth and a lot more humor than Stephen King, Dean Koontz has really hit his stride."-- The New York Times Book Review "Convincing characters, good dialogue...written in prose of a literary quality that puts most bestselling authors to shame."-- Los Angeles Daily News " Watchers is so well crafted that it is nearly everything one could wish for in a modern suspense novel....First-class entertainment."-- The Cleveland Pain Dealer More Praise for Dean Koontz "Dean Koontz is a prose stylist whose lyricism heightens malevolence and tension.
