It was delightfully offbeat with a truly endearing cast of characters and a suspenseful plot with hero Odd going up against some very supernatural and very human evils. The book was a lot of fun, as was the film. I decided to check this book out after seeing the movie adaptation, which I liked very much. I tried to avoid this as much as possible, but it wasn’t always easy to convey the story without giving away some details of the previous installment! WARNING!: Some of the reviews may reveal spoiler-ish information about the previous book. As this entertaining series had it’s first book adapted into an underrated and fun flick by Stepehen Sommers, I figured why not review the whole series as it has reached it’s final chapter by it’s author, Dean Koontz! Sadly, the movie Odd Thomas was sent straight to home media, but I would love to see the franchise continue in movie form with the perfectly cast Anton Yelchin returning as Odd! UPDATE: Obviously this statement was written before Anton Yelchin’s tragic death -MZNJ While this is, of course, primarily a movie blog, I will occasionally review a book now and then, especially if it has some significance to movies.
