    Over 23yrs ago, my mother gave me a book titled "Twilight Eyes" by Dean Koontz...At that point I had never heard of Koontz and didnt want to try a new author. However, my mother(who was an avid reader herself) said that maybe Id discover a new favorite author in Koontz and ya know what?? Mom was right!! Twilight eyes was an incredible read and Ive been reading Koontz ever since. And yes, hes my favorite author📖! Ive now read over 60 books by Koontz! Thanks mom😎

    Love Dean Koontz! I've listened to just about every interview out there with him. My process is very similar to his.

    I always enjoy these chats, and it's particularly educational and challenging to listen to someone like Dean whose work isn't a genre I would normally read. Thanks guys!

    And I loved the anecdote about the John Wick movies 😂 Hilarious that Gerda is a big action and gore junkie

    That America could have produced both Dean Koontz AND Stephen King makes me beyond proud!

    He is a luke warm writer that panders to the masses.

      Not sure i would refer to all his books as luke warm. That being said, I have read a few of his books that were lame in my opinion so I haven't read a novel by him in years. But overall, I believe most of them are great. I love Odd Thomas for example.
