Time is running out for Jimmy Tock, the reluctant and adorable hero of this book. I fell in love with Jimmy and his unconventional family, who look at life with insight, humor, and a great deal of trepidation as five darkly predicted dates loom closer and closer. And just when you think you have everything figured out, Koontz pulls the rug out from under his readers yet again, leaving us gasping in shock, horror, and laughter - but not necessarily at the same time. There is no other writer that can make me shiver and sputter at the same time.
