I am not exactly a Totally Dean Koontz fan. I have read some really Good as well as really BAD novels. Twilight Eyes , Lightning, Darkfall and The Bad Place are , in my opinion , my
personal favorites. The concept behind the plot of Twilight Eyes is not exactly JUST " interesting " but it is downright
' thought-provoking '. I highly recommend Twilight Eyes. There are definite parts of the novel that are somewhat graphically and almost visually explicit . READ IT !!

Twilight Eyes Dean Koontz 9780425100653 Books Reviews


Great story with memorable characters and an easy to follow storyline. I've always been fascinated by the carny lifestyle and this book definitely fed that craving. I would have enjoyed a bit more insight into the carnival, maybe a chapter or two on the trip back to Gibtown, who knows what hijinx could occur. Regardless, it was a great book and a fone example of Koontz's work. Definitely recommend this one.
Twilight Eyes was the first of several Koontz novels that I've read. I saw the book in an antique and used book store and the cover grabbed my attention. I later found out, after becoming a Koontz fan, that the author has been fascinated with the carnival since childhood and it shows in this book. The story is centered around a young man named Slim MacKenzie who has a gift, Twilight Eyes. The story pulls you into the life of a carnie, and into the life of a boy who sees what few can, the true identity of the living on earth. Koontz pulls you right into the story after the 1st chapter, something he excels at. The carnival and characters are "rich" and real. You can smell the cotton candy and the feel the dust kicked up from the carnival walkways in you're lungs. The "Demons" are also painted vividly and the suspense of battles between Slim and these evil beings is great as well. The story moves at a slow and steady pace and although I felt the ending could have been better this still remains my favorite Koontz book to date. If you love the carnival like I do or are looking to hop into the world of Dean Koontz I highly reccomend this book. I plan on reading it again soon! Enjoy!
Quite absorbing. To have the ability to see something others do not and then have the courage to act against it since the aspect is evil is a great moral. Kept picking up and reading more when I should have been doing other things. Really captivated me.
This is one of my favorite books by Dean Koontz, along with "From The Corner of His Eye" "Tick Tock", and the "Odd Thomas" series. A lot of Koontz's stuff seems like it was written off of same ideas just changed up a little. Not being hard on Dean Koontz as I have read a ton of his books. But this one and the others I have mentioned seem exceptional to me.
really read the 1st 2 pages- there are some parts of this book that are almost Stephan Kingish, where a single sentence can really make you think. I have read every Dean Koontz book written, and this is my favorite by far. I've read it several times, and I'm ready it again right now. it takes you to the dark underbelly of the carnival, and introduces you to some wonderful characters and even a love interest,and then it will take you on a life or death mission to save the world from evil monsters that are hiding inside a human facade.

'm?
I'm a big fan of Dean Koontz. Unfortunately, I found this book to be a bit disappointing. I loved the story line but, I was bored with ALL of the over explanations of every detail. I usually like when an author paints a vivid, detailed picture of what's going on but in this case I found myself skipping over parts where he waxed a little too poetic. Overall I was mostly bored and felt the great plot was overshadowed by all of the unnecessary, overly detailed descriptions. I Love so many of his other books though!
I have become very disenchanted with Dean Koontz over the last few years; his recent work, in my opinion, leaves a great deal to be desired, and is overly preachy to boot. I look back on his earlier work with rather more affection, especially Twilight Eyes. This is one of those rare books I can go back and reread every few years, and still enjoy it nearly as much as I did the first time I read it. It stands out from most of Koontz' work, mainly because here he eschews most of the trademarks he brings to almost everything he writes. Most of Koontz' books A) are set in California, B) have protagonists in their thirties, C) have a dog (especially a Golden Retriever, which Koontz seems to think is the noblest being in the animal kingdom), D) have a psychopathic human villain whose point of view is elaborately depicted, with extensive justification for his atrocious acts. Here the hero and heroine are just a couple of years either side of twenty, rather than Koontz' usual thirtysomethings, and the story takes place on the east coast (mostly Pennsylvania coal mining country). In fact, not only does the action take place elsewhere than Koontz' preferred southern California setting, he even set it in the past the early sixties -- probably owing to the impossibility of having a freak show in this carnival if it had been set in the eighties when the book was written, and such attractions were no longer considered socially acceptable. A couple of his trademarks that he does bring in here are the "heroine with the traumatic childhood," and "patient and understanding hero who helps the heroine overcome her traumatic childhood." Still, these trademarks are a bit less heavy handed than in some of his other books, and he's not remotely as preachy here as he got to be later in his career.

The story itself is an interesting one, where the teenaged hero can sense the presence of beings he calls "goblins" who can perfectly masquerade as ordinary human beings, but who are filled with hatred and loathing of humankind, and derive their sole pleasure from the anguish and suffering they inflict on the ordinary humans around them. The main character runs away to join a traveling carnival after he kills one of them in his home town, forever cutting himself off from "straight" society, and forcing him to make a life for himself among the carnies. This ultimately proves of great use to him in his crusade against the goblin-kind. The carnival setting also does much to set this book apart from Koontz' more usual fare, and makes it interesting in its own right as well. The explanation for the existence of the goblins turns out to be scientific rather than supernatural, and even though it is very farfetched, one can still suspend disbelief easily and enjoy the story. All in all, it's one of Koontz' more unusual and entertaining stories, and I recommend it.
