Format:Taschenbuch
I found this book to be almost unreadable. The story is a re-hash of countless better constructed and more interesting books and films. The characters are built as a composite of clichés and the 'secrets' that they reveal throughout drawn-out action are telegraphed from early on. Instead of focusing on any sort of psychological or emotional dynamic between the lead characters Koontz brings in an assorted grab-bag of scenery-chewers who clog up the book with histrionics and banal dialog. The only thing that kept me reading was the hope that at some point something truly interesting or unique would happen. It never did, and this will become one of the few books I've read I will happily toss in the trash rather that subject someone else to a tedious and worthless read.

Its done in typical Dean style, not over the top...but a good read! And THIS ONE...Oh my! I was scared. I actually read it twice, and I usually never do that! It was just SO freeky that I wanted to be scared again. :O) Dont read it at night if youre home alone!
Format:Taschenbuch
OK... KOONTZ HAS WRITTEN ABOUT GENETICS BEFORE (AND CONTINUES TO DO SO...HENCE, THE CHRISTOPHER SNOW BOOKS.) BUT, I PERSONALLY LIKE THIS BOOK EVEN BETTER THAN WATCHERS (TRANSLATION...IT'S SCARIER!) Eric Leben is a truly frightening villain... he wasn't well glued together before his death and self-imposed resurrection, but he becomes (literally) a monster upon his return. The "shadow fires" of the book's title are psychologically chilling. Leben is definitely one of Koontz's best villains...and that says a lot. He's certainly more interesting than Candy, the vilain of The Bad Place...which nonetheless remains my fav Koontz novel. Anyway, if u are looking to get chills, th is is the book for u. Just realize the book is a bit slow in places. it definitely could've been tighter. BUT the supporting characters in this book are great... especially THE STONE and the sadistic federal agent... Sharp, i believe his name was. so pick this one up... and prepare to be spooked. :)

Fast-Paced, Suspenseful & Unpredictable...
...well 2 out of 3 isn't bad. The book followed a typical Koontz pattern and the climax was somewhat predictable. Lesen Sie weiter...

One of Koontz's Best!
Although some people have stated that the science rejuvination of the antogaonist was far-fetched, I found the chase from beginning to end of this novel to be very hard to put... Lesen Sie weiter...

Pretty lame
I tried the unabridged book on tape, featuring an utterly lackluster performance by Jonathan Marosz. Lesen Sie weiter...

Fast paced & exciting
It didn't take long for it start into the exiting chase that lasted the rest of the book. I loved it. Very exciting.

Mediocre
This was good I guess, but compared to others by Koontz, it was rather umm.. "lame".

THIS WAS NOT ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
I'VE READ A LOT OF DEAN KOONTZ'S BOOKS AND THIS WAS NOT ONE OF MY FAVORITES. USUALLY IF I GET INTO A GOOD BOOK I'LL FINISH IT WITHIN DAYS, THIS BOOK TOOK SEVERAL WEEKS. Lesen Sie weiter...

Very disappointing although it started out very well
This book lost the plot half way through. The idea was excellent and the first half of the book was very good. Lesen Sie weiter...

Is it just me or was it stupid that Eric could never die ?
Don't get me wrong this book was ok, more like one thumb up one thumb down, but it was just that Eric Leben the bad guy of the book just could never die. Lesen Sie weiter...

Excellent thriller!
This was the first book I ever read by Dean Koontz and it got me totally hooked to his works! It's a great tale of escaping monsters one has created his/herself...great book.

Good, but Koontz has much better.
This is an overall good book if you are a Koontz fan, but if you are looking for a book to really get a feeling of Koontz's writing, go with something else (Watchers or The House... Lesen Sie weiter...
