Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

A dead-on performance by narrator Baker brings Koontz's supernatural thriller to life. Odd Thomas, the psychic protagonist of Koontz's 2003 novel of the same name, is blessed, or cursed, with the ability to see the dead. Thomas is summoned to the house of his best friend, Danny Jessup, by Danny's murdered father. Danny is missing and it is up to Thomas to find him. His search leads him to an old, abandoned casino and into the clutches of the frightening Datura, who plans to use Thomas and his powers to further her own demented and deadly exploration of the supernatural. Baker excellently keeps the suspense as taunt as Koontz's prose. He gives Thomas an appropriately youthful vocalization while at the same time capturing the "old soul" weariness of someone who has seen and endured too much sorrow and tragedy, for his age. With Datura, Baker offers a perfect interpretation as he bounces effectively from seductive through menacing to just plain insane. Baker hits all the right thrills in this enjoyable melding of reader and writer. Simultaneous release with the Bantam hardcover (Reviews, Nov. 7). (Nov.)

From AudioFile

The aptly named Odd Thomas is not a detective but a quiet young man who sees ghosts and helps the police chief of his desert town solve crimes. Reader David Aaron Baker understands his character so well that he makes it easy to be completely drawn into Odd's world, in which his best friends are a morbidly obese mystery writer, a fatherly police chief, and the ghost of Elvis Presley. Baker's voice has an endearing gentle quality that perfectly suits the character. In the second Odd novel, an evil woman learns of his powers and will stop at nothing to exploit him. Murder is the least of her crimes. M.S. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

5.0 out of 5 stars Forever Odd, Oct 8 2009
By Nicole Green "Nader" (Manitoba, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had gotten this book because I had lost the one I had, but having ordered from Amazon before, I knew I would get it quite fast. Their service is quite efficient, and the prices are the same. I know I will shop here again...:)

4.0 out of 5 stars Though Odd he may be he's still ok in my book, Jun 12 2007
By Ron Boyd (Halton HIlls, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Another excerpt from the weird life of Odd Thomas, Fry cook extraordinaire. Koontz's style of befriending the characters to the reader and totally involving us emotionally in the story is alive and well in the Odd Thomas series. This time Odd's friend is kidnapped, but he's only the bait! Odd must rely on his psychic magnetism to find his friend and save everyone before it's too late!
Keep them coming!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a fan of this installment, Mar 26 2007
By D. DeCraene - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love generally enjoy Dean Koontz's writing, but this didn't seem to be of the same calibre as his normal offerings. I found this installment of Odd's story dark and actually a little boring. Don't get me wrong, I eagerly anticipate reading the next sequel, but this one doesn't get much of a nod from me.
