"Quiet different to any other Koontz I've read, the first part of the book is like a crime novel free form any sort of 'horror' until the last chapter. This doesn't make it any less intresting tho. But where the story gets more Koontzlike is the second part of the book. You find a lot of answers to questions in this part, however it is somewhat predictable and you feel quiet sorry for the 'bad guy' in the book. This actually didn't have a bad ending, the visual imagery of 'the gates to hell' is pretty strong and makes me very glad I've never been forced into such a place."

    " I read this book first in 1980/81 when it came out - I vaguely remember seeing a tv commercial for it, which I thought was unusual at the time. I still have it - it was one of the scariest stories I had ever read. I read the next few Koontz novels, but gave up around the 5th or so book: Koontz was huge by then and the writing seemed to have changed. This is still my favourite. "

    " The start is a little rocky but Koontz eventually finds his stride. This book gives a nice and unexpected twist to a pretty common plot device and ends with an unforgettable scene that is sure to give every reader the creeps. "

    " Listened to the audio book version. Very scary stuff. Creepy. Not good to listen to late at night while packing moving boxes. "

    " Thrilling, spine-tingling, and sensual..........and with a very good twist. Not as good as the first two Koontz book I've read("Your Heart Belongs to Me" and I forgot the other one); nevertheless, a great book. Worth reading. And so much adjectives. :)) "

    " Not too bad for an older Koontz book. Very adult and very predictable with good characters. Love the roaches. The whole (view spoiler)[twin thing was predictable (hide spoiler)] but overall it was a good read. "

    " I went into this book blind thinking it was going to be about something totally different than it turned out to be. The characters endure much suffering and I actually ended up feeling sorry for the "bad guy" in this book. Disturbing and twisted, but still a good read. "

    " This one is good old classic Dean. He's definitely gone soft as of late and I think that if he just wrote one book a year instead of four or five, he'd still be putting out great books like this one. "

    " This has to be one of the all time creepiest psychological thrillers. Whispers is the noise that he hears and when you find out what makes the noise you'll see why he was so crazy. "

    " Not one of Koontz's best but good. Not gory for those who avoid that type of thing, more of a psych/police thriller. "

    " I read this book a long time ago. What I remember is that is scared the begesus out of me. I had never read a book like that before and soon I was reading a lot of his books. All early works though. "

    " Really liked it, until the end. Yet another book that made me feel like the author just got bored and wanted to end it and move on to something else. Ending was very fast, easy, and abrupt. "

    " Wow, the ending is so highly predictable that it's almost a relief that the climax is a whopping 3 pages long. This was not a good book. "

    " Needs some major editing...The murderer is just horribly underdeveloped. After finishing the first chapter (which just dragged on and on), I gave up reading it and just wiki'ed how it ends. I am so glad I didn't torture myself any further and now know not to trust my Aunt's opinion on books. "
