After The Last Race – Dean Koontz [Unabridged]



This is Koontz’ first, and really only, attempt at a straight hard boiled-style
thriller. A loose-knit gang of would-be thieves have a plan to hold up a racetrack on a day when there will be at least two million dollars on the premises.
Simple, easy to understand, with some nice plot twists and excellent characterization. Koontz takes a jaundiced look at the excesses of the seventies and the excesses of thriller writers like Spillane all in one gulp.

This may well be the hardest Dean Koontz novel on the planet to find. It’s worth searching out, but the prices will probably scare you more than most of his later novels!

Odd Apocalypse – Dean Koontz


Once presided over by a flamboyant Hollywood mogul during the Roaring â??20s, the magnificent West Coast property known as Roseland is now home to a reclusive billionaire financier and his faithful servants. And, for the moment, itâ??s also a port in the storm for Odd Thomas and his traveling companion, the inscrutably charming Annamaria. In the wake of Oddâ??s most recent clash with lethal adversaries, the opulent manorâ??s comforts should be welcome. But thereâ??s far more to Roseland than meets even the extraordinary eye of Odd, who soon suspects it may be more hell than haven. A harrowing taste of Roselandâ??s terrors convinces Odd that itâ??s time to hit the road again. Still, the prescient Annamaria insists that theyâ??ve been led there for a reason. Just how deep and dreadful are the mysteries Roseland and her masters have kept for nearly a century? And what consequences await whoever is brave, or mad, enough to confront the most profound breed of evil? Odd only knows. Like his acclaimed creator, the irresistible Odd Thomas is in top-notch form – as he takes on what may well be the most terrifying challenge yet in his curious career.
Unabridged.
