"I love this book! I finished the second half of it on the LRT from Taman Paramount to Terminal Putra. THAT is how much I loved it."

Basic plot
Best thing about the book
I loved the fast pace and gripping storyline. The 2 main characters are witty and handle their unbelievable situation with style, always able to crack a joke or two even under the worst duress. The villain is satisfyingly ruthless and evil.
Worst thing about the book
There wasn't much that I didn't like about this book. My only qualm is that part of the mystery revealed (namely the real story behind Linda- the unconventional damsel in distress) seemed very familiar. I may have come across it before, probably some of his other books featured the same theme.
A quote I liked from the book
New experiences were overrated. Being run down by a bus would be a new experience.
Rating 4.5/5

hidayah, i like the way you review a book. i am way too long-winded that i merepek2 je kadang2 bcoz i have so many stuff to write about that one particular book. but u write straight to the point & easier to digest.
nxt time i write a book review, i amik you punya style la ye? can, ah? ;)
Syigim: thanks .. wah! I got a style now? hehe.. I guess coz I know the book review posts will usually interest book lovers.. am trying to make books more palatable to everyone..(dunno if it's working though, no harm in trying)
Am sure you can improve immensely on my style..:)
PS: Yg tag tu , mmg saya yer ditag? hehe

smallkucing: ah.. was abt to ask you that.. thot u changed ur mind (or was tempted by all the other books)..
hidayah,
i like how you write your reviews ada 'template' best thing, worst thing, quote you like etc :)
i like dean koontz, but somehow don't make enough effort to find more of his books. are you interested in selling some of your books you already read?
