Author: Dean Koontz

Another Koontz book that you ususally find in the horror section, but I think it deserves the science fiction category because of the time travel aspect.

This is one of my favorite Koontz books, where he really brings us into the life of his strong lead female character, showing the significant events that molded her from childhood into adulthood. The time travel aspect is not explained until later in the book, which is cool, and when it is explained it makes sense in the context of the story. I also think Koontz does a fantastic job in his books writing about children, and he does that here, first with the lead character in childhood, and later with her son.

I think one of the things that makes me like Dean Koontz books is that there is always a message of hope in there...that people can overcome the traumas and difficulties in their lives to become good and caring people who succeed in their goals and dreams.

Exellent read, some humor, a touch of romance, exciting climax, well-drawn likeable characters, worth re-reading.
