did anyone read Koontz' intensity?
That one was really good too. It's the only novel I have ever read that is in real time. There were no jumps in time. It was story straight through from beginning to end. And It was very intense.
the movie wasnt as good but still a better adaptation than some ...

I have watched half the movie. Maybe it was too intense...

Here's one for the books! Come to think of it...the big or small screen...
I was watching a great ole creepy called "IT-THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE" and it suddenly hit me-it looks like a Rakosh. Check it out!

I have noticed some coincidences between a Kootz book and an F. Paul Wilson book... but of course there are no coincidences when it comes to Repairman Jack. Anywho, the two books are Darkfall by Koontz and The Tomb by Who else?
1. Both have a hero named Jack
2. Both were published in 1984
3. Both have a child being stalked by evil creatures
4. Both have a crazy foreign guy wreaking havoc on New York by setting these creatures loose on people they got a beef with
5. Both children in the books are girls and are sometimes watched by an aunt
(Ok that ones far fetched but whatever)
Anyways the books are different in their own ways and The Tomb outshines Darkfall heavily, in my opinion. But for those who have read both do you see similarities or am I just full of Bantha poodoo?
We've never seen a photo of Dean and Paul together, have we?

It's impossible. FPW cannot be Koontz
1. FPW's writing is so much better
2. FPW's plots are better
3. FPW has hair.

1. Both are NYTimes bestselling authors
2. Each man started his career writing sf
3. Both have quoted Byrds' lyrics in their work
4. Each was raised Catholic
5. Neither one shot Kennedy, as far as we know
Do I really have to go on? Isn't this Vulcan logic at its best?

4. Really?
5. The big hint here being "as far as we know"...
As for Vulcan logic, do you have pointy ears, Mike? I've never seen them before. :p

4. Yup.
5. I could expand on the topic, but I'm not quite ready to end up face-down in the East River.
I do have pointy ears, but it's hard to tell because they're upside-down.
