Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Weak confusing plot with beautiful phrasing
Reviewed: 07-13-19
Dean Koontz writes very evocative sentences but is weak on actually driving the story. When the story ended my reaction was irritated that I devoted so much time to characters that I did not care about,

Simon Green has a habit of ending his Drood books on a cliff hanger. this is the only series he does it on and I don't know why .

Story
The job was simple: decapitate the zombie, get paid, get out. Warlock Marcus Shifter followed the plan perfectly. The corpse, however, did not. Now there's a body on the loose, accusations of illegal necromancy are flying, and the answers are waiting in the perilous alleys between the mortal and paranormal worlds. They're no place for someone who mostly gave up magic after a childhood accident. And given his tendency to shoot off his mouth and his Glock, Marcus is having a hell of a time digging up more than just bodies. When an apocalypse-minded megalomaniac threatens Marcus's family, things get personal.

Worse narrator ever

I might have been able to listen to this rip-off of the Dresden Files if the narrator was at least average

Story
When an unknown someone shoots him and leaves him to die, Harry Dresden hopes he might be heading to a better place. Unfortunately being dead doesn't make Harry's life any easier. Trapped between life and death, he learns that his friends are in serious trouble. Only by finding his murderer can he save his friends and move on - a feat that would be a lot easier if he had a body and access to his powers. Worse still are the malevolent shadows that roam Chicago, controlled by a dark entity that wants Harry to suffer even in death.

Story
The Torus is the most expensive machine ever created by humankind, run by the world's most powerful supercomputer. It is the brainchild of Nobel Laureate William North Hazelius. Will the Torus divulge the mysteries of the creation of the universe? Or will it, as some predict, suck the earth into a mini black hole? Or is the Torus a Satanic attempt, as a powerful televangelist decries, to challenge God Almighty on the very throne of Heaven? Twelve scientists under the leadership of Hazelius are sent to the remote mountain to turn it on.

Preston's worse book
Reviewed: 03-09-08
Having read every other book by this author, I was surprised and disappointed by the inanity of the plot, and the overall poor writing. What appalled me, however, was the use of stereotyping for all the characters. The Christians were murderous fanatics, the Native American were poor and mystical, the scientists were too intelligent to be practical and the government was inept. The book was one of the most mean-spirited and bigoted books I have ever listened. I could not finish the book.
