Timothy Tries to Save a Stranger in The Good Guy by Dean Koontz

Date of Review:  Jan 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Good Guy could have been a bit better, but it was still an entertaining book that fans of Koontz may enjoy.
Review: It was suggested to me almost ten years ago now that I might enjoy Dean Koontz books. I picked up a few from the library and was quickly hooked on his books and started buying his new books as they were released. In the last few years, some of his...

The Good Guy - A Good Read, No a GREAT Read (Suspense, Not Horror)!

Date of Review:  Jun 7, 2007
The Bottom Line: One of the best suspense novels I've read, with fascinating characters and great plot twists to enliven a chase story with attitude.
Review: Dean Koontz, who I first discovered as a "horror writer", much prefers to be thought of as a THRILLER writer, and it's books like this one that have established him firmly in that genre. There is nothing at all supernatural or other-worldly in this...

The Good Guy Wasn't That Good

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: An average book that is worth a one time read.
Review: Dean Koontz seems to get further away from his horror/supernatural storylines with each new book he writes. In some instances he produces brilliant mystery/thriller novels. In others he appears to have trouble stretching the story past a short...

Right Person; Right Time

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: For those who were afraid to read Koontz's horror stories, this is an excellent read.
Review: I enjoyed this very exciting thriller. There is absolutely no hint of the supernatural in this book as in most of Koontz s other books.

This story reminded me a little of The Last Breed by Louis L Amour. In both stories there is a hunt;...

Good but not great

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: A quick read that gives the reader glimpses of classic Koontz, yet a full return never materializes. Worth renting from the library for a lazy afternoon.
Review: The Good Guy is yet another notch on Koontz s suspense-thriller belt, but that's about all.

Average and easy going, Tim Carrier is a bachelor and a stone mason by trade what most people would call a man s man he keeps to himself and...

The Good Guy - An Intriguing Suspense Novel

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: Another one of Dean Koontz suspenseful and action packed novels. A must read.
Review: The Good Guy is full of suspense right from the beginning. The characters (Tim, Linda, Kravet) are all interesting to say the least and they all have their own stories to keep you captivated with the novel. The way their lives entwine is not only...
