Every so often a character so captures the hearts and
imaginations of readers that he seems to take on a life of his own
long after the final page is turned. For such a character, one book
is not enough--readers must know what happens next. Now Dean Koontz
returns with the novel his fans have been demanding. With the
emotional power and sheer storytelling artistry that are his
trademarks, Koontz takes up once more the story of a unique young
hero and an eccentric little town in a tale that is equal parts
suspense and terror, adventure and mystery--and altogether
irresistibly odd. We''re all a little odd beneath the surface. He''s
the most unlikely hero you''ll ever meet--an ordinary guy with a
modest job you might never look at twice. But there''s so much more
to any of us than meets the eye--and that goes triple for Odd
Thomas. For Odd lives always between two worlds in the small desert
town of Pico Mundo, where the heroic and the harrowing are everyday
events. Odd never asked to communicate with the dead--it''s
something that just happened. But as the unofficial goodwill
ambassador between our world and theirs, he''s got a duty to do the
right thing. That''s the way Odd sees it and that''s why he''s won
hearts on both sides of the divide between life and death. A
childhood friend of Odd''s has disappeared. The worst is feared. But
as Odd applies his unique talents to the task of finding the
missing person, he discovers something worse than a dead body,
encounters an enemy of exceptional cunning, and spirals into a
vortex of terror. Once again Odd will stand against our worst
fears. Around him will gather new allies and old, some living and
some not. For in the battle to come, there can be no innocent
bystanders, and every sacrifice can tip the balance between despair
and hope. Whether you''re meeting Odd Thomas for the first time or
he''s already an old friend, you''ll be led on an unforgettable
journey through a world of terror, wonder and delight--to a
revelation that can change your life. And you can have no better
guide than Odd Thomas. "From the Hardcover edition."
