Not my favorite of Dean Koontz. I've been reading his books off and on for 20 years and there are some great treasure in his mass collection of novels. The Whispers, The Bad Place, Lightning, Tic Toc (hilarious)The Watchers and the Odd Thomas series. This book feels like a regurgitation of his other novels and I say for newbies to start with his earlier novels.

Very interesting..a bit extreme and probably gives more credit to religion for all the world's problems, but it makes you wonder about the future of religion.

Darkhouse is an entertaining ghost story. It has everything a good spooky novel needs: an old lighthouse, a ghost legend, a spunky heroine, and an inscrutable hero. This is Karina Halle's debut novel and it's obvious she's talented with the scary! As other reviewers have noted, the beginning is a little slow, but it's not super hard to get through. And with the promise of a lighthouse (which I love) coming, I kept going. It wasn't long before I was caught up in the story, wondering who Dex really was, worried the ghost would jump out and scare Perry and me. Perry was my kind of heroine. She wasn't perfect, had issues from her past she was working on, she was still dealing with self-esteem issues, but she didn't let that stop her. I really appreciated that the author didn't get carried away and over-emphasize the self-esteem and other issues. Some authors tend to dwell on them too much to the detriment of the story. Dex, being on the enigmatic side, felt a little two-dimensional to me. I wanted to know more about him, but since it was a first person narrative, the reader can only know what the protagonist knows. This book was a fun read and I look forward to the next novels in the series. I will be reviewing the next one, Red Fox, in a few weeks. *Disclaimer: I received this book for review from the author.
