As usual Dean Koontz's style of writing can become the main focus of why this book may be brilliant. As one reviewer has stated - this really isn't the type of story that you are used to reading by him. But I actually take this as rather refreshing!
This book, along with another of his books "Icebound" I feel are thoroughly understated, they are a different sort of story for the author - but his style still seems natural and as good as ever.
It was actually enough to kindle my interest in the subconcious, and I would particularly recommend this to anyone of similar mind. As this delves into areas such as suggestion and hypnosis - as well as several media scams involving subliminal advertising.
A brilliant read, and quite a lot more factual than most Koontz books!
