If you’re different enough, the night is not your enemy, the darkness is not intimidating, the shadows are not terrifying. You fear nothing.
Christopher Snow is different from all the other residents of Moonlight Bay, different from anyone you’ve ever met. For Christopher Snow has made his peace with a very rare genetic disorder that leaves him dangerously vulnerable to light. His life is filled with the fascinating rituals of one who must embrace the dark. He knows the night as no one else can—its mystery, its beauty, its terrors, and the eerie silken rhythms that seduce one into believing anything—even freedom—is possible.
Until the night Christopher Snow witnesses a series of disturbing incidents that sweep him into a violent mystery only he can solve, a mystery that will force him to rise above all fears and confront the many-layered secrets of Moonlight Bay and its strange inhabitants. A place, like all places, that looks a lot different after dark.

""Fear Nothing" has given me a new perspective on all animal life and genetic modification. As a Biologist, I am aware of manipulation within the bacterial population. However, Koontz's novel adds depth to the reality of our human future changing for the worse due to uncontrolled experimentation and greed. I quickly fell in love with the Novel's main character Chris Snow and his loveable dog. The trials that Chris had encountered during his life enabled him to muster the strength and courage to deal with his parents death and protect those in his life that he loves. I especially enjoy the format of Koontz's novel as told first person and takes us as readers down one story line without flipping back and forth between scenes and characters. Although somewhat disappointed that the ending to this novel did not provide a clear "winning" ending for Chris Snow, I am looking forward to reading the subsequent novel "Seize the Night" which may perhaps provide a resolution to this foreboding devastation."

“Chilling chase scenes steadily increase the breakneck pace…Fans will go wild for this well-plotted thriller.”
— School Library Journal" Koontz's books are good for late night fluff. Makes you afraid of things that go bump in the night. "
— Judy, 2/10/2014" To date, one of the strangest books I've ever read. And yet, I found myself purchasing this one and its sequel so that my husband can read them. Intriguing in its own crazy way, it was fun to read. "
— Julie, 2/8/2014" I like all of Dean's books, and this is a great one. "
— Rick, 2/5/2014" Although my wife enjoyed this book, I found the writing style too "long". It took him a paragragh to say a sentence. Too descriptive. "Get to the point" would be my advice to the author. "
— Robert, 1/22/2014" Really really weird. It was so hard to understand how everything went together. Not the best book in the world. The part with the monkeys was odd. Not very good. I'm not going to read the second one. "
— Alex, 1/21/2014" This was the first Dean Koontz book I ever read and still by far my favorite. As the story continues to unfold it grabs onto you that much more. "
— Arend, 1/11/2014" Scary books, scifi, not high in my reading choices & I have no idea how I happened to get my hands on this book. What I do know is that it surprised me. I really liked it. I liked the characters, the story & was happy there was a second book. "
— Cindy, 1/6/2014" This series about Christopher Snow is a must! Chris is a fascinating character, as is his dog, Orson. Nobody writes dogs quite like Dean Koontz. "
— Lisa, 12/22/2013" Great characters. Great tension. Good plot convergences. Only thing I didn't like was that it felt like Koontz added the "surfer" culture to the character half way through the book. "
— Samuel, 12/19/2013" Another series of Koontz that I love. Great main character. "
— Jerri, 12/14/2013" I really loved the characters in this book. Please, please, please don NOT make this into a movie--it would only ruin it. "
— Miss, 12/9/2013" A very enjoyable and fun book. I really hope, at some point, Koontz brings back the Christopher Snow series. "
— David, 11/29/2013" Loved, loved, loved this book, I was so disapointed when I learned there were only two of them written. If I could get more of these books I would read another 50 of them!!!!!! "
— Angela, 11/12/2013" You can't read too many Koontz books in a row, or you become mired in metaphors. Thought the premise was good, but some of the threads were too imaginative. "
— Patricia, 9/15/2013" Awesome book. This dude has XP, that skin disease where you can't be in sunlight. Interesting read. "
— Kate, 8/13/2013" good history, and good messages from this book "
— Alin, 5/17/2013" Weird and often lyrically wonderful, this was a good read. I agree that many questions left unanswered, but that is the nature of a series. If I come across the sequels I will probably read them, but I may not actively seek them out. "
— Cheri, 5/14/2013" Good book, not one of Koontz's best. "
— Vanessa, 4/1/2013" Will not be going further with this series. Main character and about ten other Koontz books are repetitive carbon copies of each other with the same dog and the same supporting characters. "
— Michael, 3/5/2013" I could never get into this book. I have tried to read it twice, and no joy. "
— Kate, 1/20/2013" Hmmm. The story was interesting and kept me reading, but I felt it lead me to the edge of a long plain, stretching ahead and then stopped. More horror than mystery with some science and surfer philosophy thrown in, it would have been better (for me) if the "what next?" had been written. "
— Angel, 6/15/2012" So far so good - I'm really enjoying it. Of course I've always been a huge Dean Koontz fan - I haven't read anything by him that I haven't enjoyed. "
— Keri, 6/4/2012" I really enjoyed this book. Almost got to the killer-dream point. Full of cliche's. But still every good. "
— Janet, 12/11/2011" AMAZING. It has a bunch of science in it, so it's great for the science nerds. Incredibly intense, as always for Koontz. Just don't read it in a big dark house all alone... "
— Lindsay, 11/21/2011" koontz uses this character in a couple of books. very likable. and his animals are very human like "
— Nicole, 11/10/2011" Another excellent thriller from Koontz his ability to lead what appears to be a routine who-dunnit into something bizaare and disturbing is second to none. Despite some rather wrenching religious overtones it is a great book and an exciting read. "
— James, 8/2/2011" I was struck by the characters and their carefully created dialogue, which was quite funny. I don't remember much from this book, except liking the characters. I'll probably have to re-read it. "
— Steven, 6/24/2011" I enjoyed this book. A few things were left unexplained. "
— Melanie, 6/13/2011" Excellent book, great story and it kept me hooked throughout. Highly recommended. "
— Roxanne, 6/7/2011" My favorite of the Koontz books. Unique, frightening, earthy. I don't know how he pulled it off, but he did. And there's a sequel! Hoping for a third book in this series. "
— D.K., 5/10/2011" Not a bad book nothing really great either. <br/>Great building in the start and story was good too, but when the mystery behind what was going on in the bay was revealed, I thought it was stupid and childish. <br/> "
— Joe, 5/10/2011" I thought it was a good book all the way through but it ended without resolving anything. The evolution of these animals was sort of explained but this great impact they have on the earth was forecasted but we don't know if it ever happened. I was very "
— Jake, 5/6/2011" good read, but I like lots of his other books better "
— Nina, 4/27/2011" So far so good - I'm really enjoying it. Of course I've always been a huge Dean Koontz fan - I haven't read anything by him that I haven't enjoyed. "
— Keri, 3/26/2011" Will not be going further with this series. Main character and about ten other Koontz books are repetitive carbon copies of each other with the same dog and the same supporting characters. "
— Michael, 3/16/2011" Christopher Snow has to be one of my all-time favorite Koontz characters. A third book would be terrific. "
— Clifford, 3/9/2011" Awesome book. This dude has XP, that skin disease where you can't be in sunlight. Interesting read. "
— Kate, 3/7/2011" A completely unique main character and a fun plot line to go with him. "
