"Honestly, I love pretty much every Dean Koontz book I have read, only a few exceptions... but this one... its perfection. The perfect mix of hope, suspense, action, sadness... and magic. A magic that had me longing for some small part of it to be a possibility. "

"The Taking is one of my favorites. I have soooo many of his books. The Odd Thomas series by Koontz is also great! There have only been a few books of his that I've read and haven't fully enjoyed. "
