Not as frustrated as some

I just recently read the first book in this series that I found in a used book store and quickly ordered this one, the second. I have enjoyed the modern interpretation on the Frankenstein myth but not being very familiar with Koontz, I am surpeised by the odd mixture of the pseudo-scientific and the supernatural. I am not yet as frustrated as some of the other readers who were promised the third and final book about 2 years ago. i am still looking forward to it but will lose interest if I have to wait a few years.

Koontz is my favorite

Beware- this book is the second in a 3 part series. Books 1 and 2 are cliffhangers. I cannot find book 3 ANYWHERE!

Good series but don't see it ending

The basis premise of these novels is fresh and current. I liked this series very much but according to Koontz he had a hard time collaborating on a series. I can't see this series concluding. I'm actually rather ticked off at Mr. Koontz for not finishing this series. He's had time to write Odd Thomas and the others.

Where is book 3 please?

Really loved the premise for this trilogy. Book one (Prodigal) is definitely a five star, and the review on this one would have gotten four stars, but we've been waiting quite a while now for the third installment.

I can understand how the movie version of Prodigal might have put the author off. (Totally miscast.) Still, I hate to be left hanging on a good story.

And I'm sure other loyal readers feel the same way.

Just didn't grab me

Maybe it's my distracted state of mind but I didn't enjoy this book nearly as much as Frankenstein Prodigal Son . I didn't find it very interesting and found my mind drifting away throughout most of it. I think the thing I liked best about the first book in the series was learning more about the monster but in this book he's more of a secondary character in a cast full of secondary characters. Actually, when I think about it, the action seemed to be more of the main focus of the book than any of the characters and thus was the source of many of my issues with the book. I'm not a big all action/all the time type of reader and like a little more character development than I got here.

From the celebrated imagination of Dean Koontz comes a powerful reworking of one of the classic stories of all time. If you think you know the legend, you know only half the truth. Here is the mystery, the myth, the terror, and the magic of?

Dean Koontz's City of the Night

They are stronger, heal better, and think faster than any humans ever created?and they must be destroyed. But not even Victor Helios?once Frankenstein?can stop the engineered killers he?s set loose on a reign of terror through modern-day New Orleans. Now the only hope rests in a one-time ?monster? and his all-too-human partners, Detectives Carson O?Connor and Michael Maddison. Deucalion?s centuries-old history began as Victor?s first and failed attempt to build the perfect human?and it is fated to end in the ultimate confrontation between a damned creature and his mad creator. But first Deucalion must destroy a monstrosity not even Victor?s malignant mind could have imagined?an indestructible entity that steps out of humankind?s collective nightmare with one purpose: to replace us.
