Saint Odd

Odd Thomas, Book 7

De: Dean Koontz

Narrado por: David Aaron Baker

From "one of the master storytellers of this or any age" (The Tampa Tribune) comes the stunning final adventure of "one of the most remarkable and appealing characters in current fiction" (The Virginian-Pilot) - as #1 New York Times best-selling author Dean Koontz brings the unforgettable odyssey of Odd Thomas to its dazzling conclusion.

Odd Thomas is back where it all started…because the time has come to finish it. Since he left his simple life in the small town of Pico Mundo, California, his journey has taken him to places strange and wonderful, mysterious and terrifying. Across the land, in the company of mortals and spirits alike, he has known kindness and cruelty, felt love and loss, saved lives and taken them - as he's borne witness to humanity's greatest good and darkest evil. Again and again, he has gone where he must and done what he had to do - for better or worse - with his courage and devotion sorely tested, and his soul forever changed. Every triumph has been hard won. Each sacrifice has taken its toll.

Now, whatever destiny drives him has finally steered his steps home, where those he cares for most surround him, the memory of his tragically lost true love haunts him, and one last challenge - vast and dreadful - awaits him. For Odd Thomas, born to serve a purpose far greater than himself, the wandering is done. Only the reckoning remains.

Best End To the Series

We all knew that St. Odd meant that Odd Thomas was going to meet his fate in this book. The craftsmanship and rich character detail in this book are phenomenal. You can tell that this character was very close to the heart of the offer. He spent a great deal of time with this character, liked him, and hated to see him go. The end he has created is richly satisfying and anyone who has read these books will enjoy this book a great deal.

I smiled as I again recognized his mannerisms

(slight spoiler alert) What a great book and an exciting end to a wonderful series. It was so nice to listen to Odd again. Right away I smiled as I again recognized his mannerisms and listened to some of the characters from his past books. I was excited to find that there MIGHT be a way to continue the books although they won't be exactly the same (dare I say maybe even more exciting). Everything seems to be in place for a new series with Odd and Stormy via Ozzie's computer. Thank you Mr. Koontz! What a great experience!

Exceptional End to the Series

I admit it, I didn't want the Odd stories to end. I procrastinated reading/listening to this final volume but could wait no longer. I'm relieved and pleased with the end and shall read them all again, start to finish. Things were wrapped up in my personal opinion, contrary to some of the reviews I found here. If you've been hesitating, expecting to be disappointed, don't.

Oddly sad it's over

Excellent storyline and the narrator was very good I'd suggest it to any one of my friends to read as well

Too quick to the end.

A good story as always and performance was excellent as the others. Just seem to end too quickly for me.

disappointed

I am a huge fan of Dean Koontz; I am disappointed in how he chose to end the series of such a loved character. I'm not sure, but it feels like he's phoning it in these days. having read and re-read his books for 20 + years, I might be needing to find a new favorite author. breaks my heart.

I'll miss you Oddy

Hey Dean! How about Oddy from the other side? Loved every word as spoken by Mr Baker

I will miss odd it's been a great journey

hopefully there will be more from the next phase in life of service with stormy

start at the beginning.

The Odd series is wonderful. all of them. my favorite literary character since Harry Potter.

Dean Koontz, you sir, have done it yet again.

Perfection? I think so with so many of his novels, only to be proven wrong by Mr. Koontz himself, when he yet writes another, even better. Thank you sir, for many countless hours of entertainment. I'm sure your imagination could give us, yet one more Odd novel. That computer could yet hum again. .....
