Some people really hate this book or series of books, but for me it's one of my favourites by Dean Koontz. In Odd Thomas he has created one of his best characters, Odd is quite a lovable person and easy to cheer on in times of stress.

The plot in this book is good, a sort of detective story as Odd tries to figure out what disaster is about to hit. There are some creepy black shadow people that are gathering for the event and it becomes a race against time to ruin their day. And Odd also sees ghosts, they are either wanting help, murdered victims, or just hanging around, Elvis. The ending of the book is brilliant and might be one of the reasons people hate it so much.
