Sole Survivor by Dean Koontz

Advantages: Probably Dean Koontz best
Disadvantages: Slow going in the middle

Sole Survivor As a big Stephen King fan a friend persuaded me to read this Koontz Novel. I was assured he was on a par with Mr King but after reading it I think their writing styles are too different to draw comparisons. Without giving the plot away this is a very well researched book that only just steps into the realms of science fiction. Joe, the main character in the book is devastated by a loss and one-year on from the tragedy he finds he is being followed. From his past as an investigative journalist, he draws on all his resources to try and shake what at first he believes are the police following him. It later becomes clear that the people who are following him have almost inexhaustible resources and aren?t afraid to kill to get what they want. The rest of the book centres on his search for the truth, while ...

Review of Sole Survivor - Dean Koontz

A review of Sole Survivor by Dean Koontz

Advantages: A brilliant fast paced read... unputdownable!
Disadvantages: The only disadvantage is that I can't ever read it again for the first time!

As a lifelong Steven King fan, I love anything Supernatural or spooky and I have not been disappointed with Dean Koontz! Sole Survivor is one of the best books I have ever read. I actually even shed a tear at the end! It is a fast read, full of mystery, adventure, hope, loss, human nature and the triumph of the human spirit over adversity. I suppose if I had to catergorise it, I would call it a Sci Fi, but it is really much more than that. Whilst reading it, I found myself beleiving every word! Dean Koontz has a talent for making even the most outlandish idea perfectly reasonable, logical and beleivable. I would recommend this book to anyone. In fact, I even recommended it to my mother (a lifelong Mills and Boon romance reader) and she thouroughly enjoyed it, although she did say " Sometimes it was too scary to put down ...

Review of Sole Survivor - Dean Koontz

A plaice with sole

Advantages: Delicious seafood, helpful staff, good value
Disadvantages: A few over the top dishes, dim lighting

but in this version is drowned in a rich sauce of cheese, cream and tomatoes. The most simple dishes on the menu are the tastiest without a doubt. Portion sizes are generous and you may find that it's not necessary to order a starter. Having now been several times we like to order one starter and a salad to share as well as one main course each. There is no pressure to order several courses or side dishes, and many of the main courses include a side dish such as fries, rice or potatoes. The starters tend to be simple dishes like a plate of grilled sardines or local ham and olives; it's a good way of sampling some Slovenian specialities. Service is always prompt and friendly. The waiters rush round with effortless efficiency and you're never left long with dirty plates or without another drink. All the waiters speak more than ...
