In retaliation, Waxx threatens Cubby with doom and gets things started nicely by blowing up his house. All rights reserved. While some may take this as satire, the over-the-top villain's underdeveloped motivation and a jokey narrative tone that jars when juxtaposed with terrifying scenes of violence will leave others scratching their heads.

Cheryl Baker said Impossible to put down!!. I was initially given this book in hardback not too long after it was released by a friend who had similar reading interests. She is a HUGE Dean Koontz fan but said she was really disappointed in this particular book. I was thrilled to not have to wait until it can out in paperback to be able to read it and I have to tell you, I think my friend was having a REALLY, REALLY off day!! I personally think this is one of Dean's best books!! The everyday subject matter, the impossible cruelty of crime in general, fueled by supposedly rational people have given the book a touch of the world as we know it, while at the same t. "Used to Love Koontz - now so tired of his Deus ex Machina" according to penny gray. Back in high school - a million years ago - I loved Dean Koontz. I know he was always seen as a "poor man's Stephen King", but I found them vastly different - Lightning, Twilight, Darkfall - I ate those books up. And they all had a touch of the unbelievable in one way or another, but it was never used a cheap plot device. It was never relied upon to neatly tie up the loose ends of a poorly written narrative.Well, that's all it is in this book. Which is a pity, because until the last 1/8 of the book, I really thought the Dean Koontz I read in high school was still there. But nope.I think I'll go re-read some of his o. "Found it hard to put this book down." according to jackie. This book kept me wanting for more. I had a hard time putting this down. Definitely an edge of your seat reading.

He makes a handsome living doing what he enjoys. If Lassie could talk, she’d tell Cubby to ignore them, too.Ignore Shearman Waxx and his poison pen is just what Cubby intends to do. For Waxx gives criticism; he doesn’t take it. Soon Cubby finds himself in a desperate struggle with a relentless sociopath, facing an inexorable assault on far more than his life.Fearless, funny, utterly compelling, Relentless is Dean Koontz at his riveting best, an unforgettable tale of the fragile bonds that hold together all that we most cherish—and of those who would tear those bonds asunder.. He has ways of dealing with those who cross him that Cubby is only beginning to fathom. Together they have a brilliant six-year-old, Milo, affectionately dubbed “Spooky,” and a non-collie na
