About this item

Dean Koontz, the bestselling master of suspense, invites you into the shocking world of Moonlight Cove—where four unlikely survivors confront the darkest realms of human nature.

The citizens of Moonlight Cove, California, are changing. Some are losing touch with their deepest emotions. Others are surrendering to their wildest urges. And the few who remain unchanged are absolutely terrified—if not brutally murdered in the dead of night...

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating read!

This work is a fascinating and honestly somewhat scary read. Could this actually come to pass? It's a little frightening to think what power hungry man might achieve.

I love Dean Koontz. He grabs you from the start and doesn’t let go. He scares you but you can’t put the book down. Loved this book.

This book is a real page-turner. Hard to put down and haunting when I did. The story and characters stayed in my mind all day until completed.

I've always been a big fan of Koontz. Didn't maybe love every book, but most of them. This one is pretty creepy and feels somewhat current with all the stuff going on with AI. Though this was written before everybody had cell phones. They would have been handy for the hero's in this story.

3.0 out of 5 stars Probably good if you are a reader of horror.

I read many Steven King novels and enjoyed this novel almost as much but I found myself skim reading much like I did for the last couple King books. I have trouble spending time with, what I call "filler material". More background and details than I want to read. I prefer hard Science Fiction so my review may not count but Midnight might as well be about Zombies which I would never read.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Midnight" the end of innocence and the beginning of hope.
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2014
"Midnight", both the beginning of evil and the end of despair. This paradox is one common to all Koontz' books, and as cliched as it may be, it is comforting to close the book believing, as Koontz does, that there is hope for the triumph of goodness and that love will conquer all in the end. The plot seems to foreshadow the fears that other writers have taken up, that the creation of nano bots will be or may be something that will destroy their creator (Think for example of the TV series "Revolution") but not before creating actual physical changes in man, that will cause him to lose his "humanness" and become capable of terrifying things. The inclusion of "disabled"and unlikely "hero" and wonderful, intelligent dog/ companion adds to the appeal, as well as being something of a recurring leitmotif,in other novels.The plot, therefore, is no longer original, but it moves fast, and is an easy read, with characters who are both believable and in turn either scary (the bad guys) and likable (the hero and heroines). This is recommended to those who like their horror served up with a healthy dose of heart!

Mr. Koontz, you never disappoint.
I could not put this book down, finished it in 2 days, now I can do my chores.
I feel that I’m prepared if anything like this happens, that my “situational awareness” is heightened. Though I pray to God that nothing like Midnight actually happens.
