Series fans will appreciate more than newcomers bestseller Koontz’s sixth paranormal crime novel featuring itinerant fry cook and prophetic dreamer Odd Thomas (after 2012’s Odd Apocalypse).

You must — there are over 200,000 words in our free online dictionary, but you are looking for one that’s only in the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary. I have no explanation for this, but I put the book down several times in the first hundred pages just to clear my head. The magical Moji lights up the night with images of Ivan and his family enjoying life in this different place - and the worried little boy realises that in time, his new house will become a home.

This wonderful book is not only gorgeously illustrated but it would be a great tool to help a child who has just had to move. But in a nightmarish instant, Dylan is attacked by a mysterious “doctor,” injected with a strange substance, and told that he is now a carrier of something that will either kill him…or transform his life in the most remarkable way. The subtle shine of these intriguing objects encourages a deep sense of contemplation, both of our bodily self and their beautiful forms. If you’re looking for a bit of brainless, cheesy fun with lots of gun action and wonky science, you could do much worse. It wouldn't be a Dean Koontz novel if we did not have the supernatural occurrence or the chase between evil and good.

Ivan is having trouble settling into his new house and a magic sprite appears to take him on an adventure in the sky. Yet within the hour he finds himself bound, gagged and being injected with a mysterious fluid by a lunatic doctor, who claims Dylan will be the carrier of 'his life's work'. If you like quality characters you get to know, vividly sculpted scenes, and a bit of the fantasciencefiction of the type Koontz is known for, "By the Light of the Moon" will surely please.

Perhaps the answer lies in the eerie, enigmatic messages that Shep, with precious time running out, begins to repeat, about an entity who does his work “by the light of the moon. Koontz doesn’t ramble too much here, but when it does it isn’t as much of a chore to read as it is in some of his latter day releases.
