The City

The City by Dean Koontz
398 Pages


Dean Koontz's latest is set in the late sixties and is narrated by a young african-american boy.  As we follow the narrative the boy relates his life with his mother, estranged father and grandparents.  He is visited by a mysterious woman who describes herself as the city and sends him prophetic dreams of the future.  Soon the boy is on a course leading to a battle of good and evil.

While I was reading this book I found the writing to be very similar to Stephen King.  It is an enjoyable tale.
