King vs Koontz.

At last! Finally someone has written a blog about Dean Koontz. I have never understood why it is so unusual for him to be mentioned. He is such a superb writer and I know that his books are incredibly popular. I am not quite sure why it is, but his work seems to get overlooked a lot of the time in England.

In the past he has been likened to Stephen King but this is not a very good comparison at all. King has written quite a few good novels but he is more of a typical horror writer. Koontz on the other hand has explored a number of different genres.

It has lead me to one of my favourite pastimes in the winter however. Most nights you will find me curled up on my sofa, having called up my heating oil supplier to make sure I stay toasty all winter with a Dean Koontz novel!
