Interpretation Concering Books Intensity
Past midnight, Chyna Shepard, twenty-six, gazes out a moonlit window, unable to sleep on her first night in the Napa Valley home of her best friend's family. Instinct proves reliable. A murderous sociopath, Edgler Foreman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. A self-proclaimed "homicidal adventurer," Vess lives only to satisfy all appetites as they arise, to immerse himself in sensation, to live without fear, remorse or limits, to live with "intensity." Chyna is trapped in his deadly orbit.Chyna is a survivor, toughened by a lifelong struggle for safety and self-respect. Now she will be tested as never before. At first her sole aim is to get out alive--until, by chance, she learns the identity of Vess's next intended victim, a faraway innocent only she can save. Driven by a newly discovered thirst for meaning beyond mere self-preservation, Chyna musters every inner resource she has to save an endangered girl...as moment by moment, the terrifying threat of Edgler Foreman Vess intensifies.

I gave this book a three even though the story line was definitely well within the thriller I expected from Dean Koontz. The criticism I have is it was too detailed. Definitely I felt and envisioned each character as if I were inside their very minds from a lot of the descriptive detail. At the same time he went on and on in the intensity of his detail upon which I almost put the book down and didn't complete it.The last 200 pages of this book are what makes me want to give it 5 stars but I didn't enjoy it as much as I hoped to, so four stars it is. The end plot twist was something I did not see coming and for that I applaud Koontz; I read this book relatively quickly and I didn't have to force myself to keep reading.
I have so many books on my Kindle that were on sale or free that I haven't read yet. I've been browsing today & found Intensity which I bought in 2010. Let's give it a try.My heart rate has been about 110 to 120 while reading this book. Its the story of a real sicko! It was close to a 5 star for me but the ending went on and on. The title is perfect for this book, it was intense!

An excellent book, full of suspense. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through and the temptation to rush to the end to see what happened was huge! But I was good and enjoyed every word of it. There is a very surprising little twist to the tale at the very end which was nice. It is always good to leave a book on a high and that is certainly the case here. Dean Koontz's books do vary in quality but this is one of the good ones,
Ladies and gentlemen I surprisingly managed to end my criticism of "Linnea Hartsuyker's"The Half-DrownedKing," but as I warned when drafting the above-mentioned review. It is quite possible that I will not be able to finish the criticism quoted today, and I am forced to continue it tomorrow, so I ask Goodreads users to be patient with me.What surprised me as I read Dean R. Koontz's novel is the huge number of people. That is, users, who followed with great interest the reading progress
