My mother is a massive Dean Koontz fan. Ask lizbee and weaverandom, who currently live with a rather large collection of his writings as they were too cumbersome for Mum to take when she moved.
I think he's perfect in his genre. Horror writers tend to be sort of looked down on, but I think he and Stephen King are fantastic in getting the hooks in and sometimes, that's as good as fifteen pages of prose describing an ant.
Give him a go. He's not about to knock Kafka and co. off their perches, but he's interesting.
