Lowest Price Sole Survivor

I picked up the audio version. I enjoy Dean Koontz's books. This one however was...difficult to rate. I would like to give it a 3.5 He is a talented writer, exceptional storyteller, but this story got caught up in too many metaphors, similes and poetics. I hit fast forward a couple of times because I couldn't handle the speakers miserable drawn out recounting of "everything" he encountered. His inflection was the same throughout the entire story. It isn't really a complex story line, just wordy. I couldn't get myself connected with his character, Joe. I love quirky storylines and plots, but couldn't get interested in this one. I can understand why others rated it higher though. I think Koontz has a way of connecting to people. Maybe not to the same folks all the time. I have friends that I would recommend this book to (not the audio version). I have other friends that I know wouldn't be able to get into the story. To each his own.
