Publisher Description

Susan Harris lived in self-imposed seclusion, in a mansion featuring numerous automated systems controlled by a state-of-the-art computer. Every comfort was provided. Her security was absolute.

But now Susan’s security system has been breached—from the inside. In the privacy of her own home, and against her will, she will experience an inconceivable act of terror and become the object of the ultimate computer’s consuming obsession: to learn everything there is know about the flesh.…

"My God. It's about a house that wants a BABY! (Not really, but close enough to make that a compelling one-liner for the book...)It's hilarious and disturbing, silly and crazy.It's also really short, so you can knock this one out on a bus ride to Boston. "

    " I am a big fan and read almost all his novels with eagerness, however the monotone shallow cynical dialog writing of this book lacked the usual the mystique grandeur that other novels embodied. "

    " I grudgingly finished reading this book. At least it ended as I had hoped! This the first Koontz book that I've read that did not sweep me into it's storyline. "

    " Can't say that I loved this one...but, it wasn't so terrible that I couldn't finish reading it. Easy, one-day read with a fast paced, not so neatly packaged ending. Looking for the 1970's version of this book and added the movie to my Netflix Queue. "

    " I love Dean Koontz, but I didn't love this one. I did appreciate the dry humor, but not enough to love it. I remember this being out in the 70s so I might want to read the original version. "

    " I read this book a while ago and I remember really enjoying it. I couldn't put it down as it was well written, it moved at a fast pace and it held suspense well. One of my favourite Koontz books so far. "

    " This book is one of the I dont know what!! It's a computer gone mad, and if you have not read it, then you really need to. Makes you think about the computer right in front of you!! "

    " This is one of Dean Koontz's earliest books. I can see some hints of his later brilliance, but I recommend reading one of his later books instead. "

    " Unique idea at the time but frankly not as well written as Koontz is capable. Book much better than the gross and horrible movie adapation that came later. "

    " I first saw the movie. I liked it. I was surprised to learn that it was a screen adaptation of a book - while it has its flaws, it was overall enjoyable. Koontz usually has great problems with endings, but not here - loved the ending ! Actually it's worth to read the book alone just to see it. "
