Gist:
Intervening story of two families and their friends with a murderous psychopath on the run to kill an innocent prodigal child.
Review:
Initial pages of the novel was very good. The murderous intent of any lame person cannot be described more apt than that of the authors expression. It was a mind blowing novel till the end. The author makes you await the developements in each character’s life especially that of Junior and Bartholomew. The best character is Junior Enoch Cain. Such a marvellous character you can indulge in. There are a lot of loose ends in the story but it was finished aptly. The author has made a very good attempt in explaining the concepts of quantum physics and the intervining space of worlds such that even a lame person can understand in an interesting manner. As of to say the readers must have expected a lot from Cain in the end but the author has made it simple to end the book but unbelievingly true if you understand the concepts of what he is trying to explain in the whole book. Dean Koontz has amazed the readers with the explanation of interlocked spaces which makes the readers believe in it till the end. But the novel must have ended in a much more good way than presented by the author. The pie lady is a loving, romantic character wishing you to have her a lot in your own neighborhood (not for the free pies!!!). Kudos for the author to keep up his good work. Want to read more of his novels.
Bottom line: Locked to the intervening characters of the novel.
