Can't wait to hear what you think! I was very satisfied, I must say.
...I knew it would be bittersweet to have the series wrap up...Odd has been one of the most engaging characters I've encountered in many years of reading, and the premise was fresh as well...as I arrived at the end of the road, I found myself a tad unsatisfied...the ending seemed rushed, and more than a bit contrived...the whole "fully smooth and blue" concept was never fully explained....nor was the relationship between the exclamation point and the "warriors for good"-(angels?)...Annamarie's "reveal" was a REAL cheat and his reunion with Stormy lacked the true emotional hit I was expecting...overall I enjoyed the story, but elements left me quite disenchanted...

As with any series, there are always elements that we're never fully satisfied with. That's a given. I would have liked a more complete explanation of the "fully smooth and blue" concept as well but overall, I loved the series and was sorry to see it end.

I'm a fan of koontz but I recently finished the vision and a little turned off on him right now. I know, I know probably going to far with it but man I felt like I was reading somewhere between child Pornograph and child bondage torture. Either way that was way out there. Those of u read it know what scene im referring to . I was like Dave Dave how can u write that. I don't know maybe I'm out of line. Like I said I am fan. Ever since Watchers. One of my favs.
