Yeah, Under the Dome was a complete embarassment, both the book and the tv-series.
Speaking of Koontz: he’s actually my favourite writer now. Sure, he doesn’t have the depths of King’s earlier books, but he’s fun to read, has a great sense of humour. His dialogues are spot on, often like a screw-ball comedy. Odd Thomas was great, and I can’t wait to get the next Jane Hawk into my hands.
