FROM BACK COVER

It is a year since Tina Evens lost her little boy Danny in a tragic accident... a year since she began the painful process of forgetting. Of trying to go on. But today this shocking message appeared on the blackboard in Danny's room: NOT DEAD HELP ME Was it someone's grim joke? The tangible evidence of her own tormented unconscious? Or something... more? The search for answers will begin now... A search that will drive a beautiful anguished woman and her compassionate lover through the neon glamour of Las Vegas nightlife, the sun scorched desert, the mighty shadows of Boulder Dam and the frozen towers of the High Sierras. People will die now, coldly, brutally, while a buried truth struggles to the surface... a truth so incredible, so frightening, so dangerous that its secret must be kept at the price of any life - any man, any woman... any child... THE EYE OF DARKNESS

Koontz at his Best

This is the Koontz I love--this is the Koontz that wrote Intensity, not Fear Nothing. Why can't he always right this well? The premise is a staple to Koontz--a government science lab and the results of their expierements. The result is a strong novel of suspense and horror set in vegas and packed with emotion. This is the first "adult horror" novel I ever read and I still think it is a particularly good one. It is the book that helped me bridge the gap between Young Adult and Adult years ago (no, not R.L. Stine... I started reading the better end of YA Fiction early on.) The story opens with a mother still grieving the loss of her son a year ago in a scouting accident; after thinking she sees him in a car, strange things start to happen which point to the possibility that he's still alive. A good read.

The Eyes of Darkness

The Eyes of Darkness is one of the greatest books I've ever read. It has something for everyone, including horror, mystery, and romance. This book keeps you in suspense throughout the entire book. One part of the book has Tina and Elliot (...) The mystery is all about the government. Does the government really hide things, or is it just in the people's minds. This book was great if you want to read about the government interfering with people's lives. I wish that everyone would read this book, but if you have young children, I recomend that they don't read this book because of some content.

GREAT!!

I am Brazilian and I had never read an English book before this one. I loved it! It grabbed me from the first page and couldn't stop reading it! I could count my goose bumps!
