Review of 'The good guy' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

I'm beginning to think that Koontz is in a bit of a rut. Between the Odd Series ([book: Odd Thomas]) and his recent books he seems to have fallen in to the trap of rewriting the same story every-time.

Boy meets girl, boy saves girl with the help of a dog mostly Golden Retrievers, there is some mystic undertone and then there is the happy ending. I really miss Koontz older books, I think he's getting a bit soft.
