55,95 kr. De bestuurder van een tientonner loopt rond met een ijzingwekkend plan. Hij zal in de nabije toekomst drie kinderen van het leven beroven - met een vlammenwerper. Odd Thomas kan het zien, zoals hij wel vaker doden ziet en moorden voorvoelt. Odd Thomas krijgt hulp uit onverwachte hoek. De 86-jarige Edie Fischer heeft net als Thomas een gave. En dan is er ook nog de geest van niemand minder dan Alfred Hitchcock. Ondanks deze speelse toetsen in dit zesde boek over Odd Thomas ook het donkerste: het gevaar is immens en brengt Thomas in situaties die zijn optimisme en goede humeur zwaar op de proef stellen.Thomas Odd is een 20-jarige kok in een ontbijttent in Pico Mundo. Odd leidt een teruggetrokken leven, omdat hij een complexe gave heeft: hij kan de doden zien en horen. Meer nog, hij ziet schimmige figuren, de bodachs, die zich ophouden in de buurt van mensen die gaan sterven... of moorden. Odd is een optimist die ondanks zijn verontrustende gave het goede in de meeste mensen ziet. Hij doet zijn best om zijn gave te verbergen, omdat de bodachs zich anders tegen hem zouden keren. Dean Koontz schreef 6 romans over deze kok met een speciale gave, die zich geleidelijk ontpopt tot een held in de strijd tegen duistere machten. Tussen boek 4 en 5 passen een paar korte spin-off-boekjes. Na de reeks volgden nog graphic novels over Odd Thomas.

108,95 kr. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SUSPENSE MAGAZINE • Includes Dean Koontz's short story "You Are Destined to Be Together Forever"-its first time in print!From "one of the master storytellers of this or any age" (The Tampa Tribune) comes the stunning final adventure of "one of the most remarkable and appealing characters in current fiction"(The Virginian-Pilot)-as Dean Koontz brings the unforgettable odyssey of Odd Thomas to its dazzling conclusion. Odd Thomas is back where it all started . . . because the time has come to finish it. Since he left his simple life in the small town of Pico Mundo, California, his journey has taken him to places strange and wonderful, mysterious and terrifying. Across the land, in the company of mortals and spirits alike, he has known kindness and cruelty, felt love and loss, saved lives and taken them-as he's borne witness to humanity's greatest good and darkest evil. Again and again, he has gone where he must and done what he had to do-for better or worse-with his courage and devotion sorely tested, and his soul forever changed. Every triumph has been hard won. Each sacrifice has taken its toll. Now, whatever destiny drives him has finally steered his steps home, where those he cares for most surround him, the memory of his tragically lost true love haunts him, and one last challenge-vast and dreadful-awaits him. For Odd Thomas, born to serve a purpose far greater than himself, the wandering is done. Only the reckoning remains.Praise for Saint Odd "Equal parts supernatural thriller, cultural satire, character study, bildungsroman, offbeat love story, road trip, spiritual meditation, and apocalyptic adventure, the Odd Thomas books . . . are more than irresistible page-turners. They are intimate, haunting, often heartrending, exhilarating, and beautifully composed."-Biography.com "Odd Thomas is such an endearing and likable character and, more than anything else, has been the reason for the success of the series. . . . For readers who have been with Odd all along, Saint Odd will satisfy."-Bookreporter Acclaim for Dean Koontz and his Odd Thomas novels "Odd's strange gifts, coupled with his intelligence and self-effacing humor, make him one of the most quietly authoritative characters in recent popular fiction."-Publishers Weekly "Koontz gives his character wit, good humor, a familiarity with the dark side of humanity-and moral outrage."-USA Today "The ultimate Everyman . . . an avatar of hope and honor and courage for all of us-the linchpin of a rollicking good tale . . . Odd evokes the homespun wisdom of Forrest Gump amid the mind-spinning adventures of a Jack Bauer."-BookPage "There's never anything predictable about an Odd Thomas adventure."-Booklist "The nice young fry cook with the occult powers is [Koontz's] most likable creation . . . candid, upright, amusing and sometimes withering."-The New York Times "An inventive . . . mix of suspense, whimsy and uplift."-The Washington Post "Heartfelt and provocative . . . a wonderfully rich and entertaining story."-Chicago Sun-Times

';You think I won't do it right here in the open. But you'd be surprised. . . . You'll drop before you get the breath to scream.' The truck driver is decked out like a rhinestone cowboy, only instead of a guitar he's slinging a gunand Odd Thomas is on the wrong end of the barrel. Though he narrowly dodges a bullet, Odd can't outrun the shocking vision burned into his mind . . . or the destiny that will drive him into a harrowing showdown with absolute evil.

But this time, it's the living who desperately need Odd on their side. Three helpless innocents will be brutally executed unless Odd can intervene in time. Who the potential victims are and where they can be found remain a mystery.
