Arthur Geis Why Arthur loves this book

Here's this coerced to go on a one-way mission with two others and they both are dead when he wakes up in his space ship. And it's all about this man alone overcoming every obstacle one could imagine. His persistence, the way he solves one issue after another, was fun and entertaining. The story is clever and smart.

What is this book about?

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission—and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish.

Christopher Andrews Why Christopher loves this book

Technically a re-read from many, many moons ago, "Watcher" was every bit as good as I remembered. The primary reason I loved this book (again) was because of the genetically-enhanced golden retriever, Einstein.

Dean Koontz frequently features dogs in his works -- golden retrievers, in particular -- but in this instance, the dog is gifted with human-level intelligence, so Einstein was truly his own character alongside the humans, Travis and Nora. Perhaps more so.

If you like tense suspense/horror, it's worth your time. If you're a dog-lover, you really should give it a look.

Why should I read it?

5 authors picked Watchers as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it.

What is this book about?

The No.1 bestselling classic from Dean Koontz, the master of chilling suspense, that will thrill fans of Stephen King and the Odd Thomas series.

They escape from a secret government project: two mutant creatures, both changed utterly from the animals they once were. And no one who encounters them will ever be the same again.

A lonely widower, a ruthless assassin, a beautiful woman, a government agent.

Drawn together in a deadly hunt, all four are inexorably propelled towards a confrontation with an evil beyond human imagining.
