Publisher's Note “Dean Koontz is not just a master of our darkest dreams, but also a literary juggler.” --The Times (London)
“Dean Koontz almost occupies a genre of his own. He is a master at building suspense and holding the reader spellbound.” --Richmond Times-Dispatch
“Koontz has always had near-Dickensian powers of description, and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.” --Los Angeles Times
"Still the DEAN of suspense...a rewarding climax...you'll enjoy the ride." --People Magazine
"Both terrifying and amusing, THE FACE is classic Dean Koontz--a blend of murder, mystery and wit...Koontz's dialogue is sharp, his characters multidimensional, and the plot is tight." --The New York Daily News
"A modern Swift...a master satirist." --Entertainment Weekly
Industry Reviews "There's scarcely an author alive who, judging by his books, loves the English language more than Koontz; there's certainly no bestselling author of popular fiction who makes more use of figures of speech and whose sentences offer more musicality....[G]reat kudos to Koontz for creating, within the strictures of popular fiction, another notable novel of ideas and of moral imperatives." Publishers Weekly (04/14/2003)
