Didn’t Like It“Didn't like this book at all! (spoiler alert) It started off interesting, but it just seemed to go downhill after about the first 1/4 of the book. I hated the darkness & evil, and it didn't seem relevant to the whole plot. If the aliens were kind enough to save our planet and all the children...” see full review » see other reviews » |

If the aliens were kind enough to save our planet and all the children on it, why did they have to terrorize them first with such demonic activities, such violence, & horrendous death? Maybe I just missed the point completely, but I just totally didn't like this book!”

My brother had it on his shelf and told me I should try it out. Within pages I was hooked and went on to read nearly every book Koontz has ever written. The Taking is that good!”

LOVE LOVE LOVE Dean, however, this book is a bit boring. The concept is good, but I think it could have been much more exciting. ”

Sometime last year, I think, I was at the library. I saw this book and I picked it up and almost checked it out, but I was way to scared to even have it in my room, much less read it. I loved it, though.”
