I must say after reading "From the Corner of his eye" which was a little slow paced but worth the wait,"One Door Away from Heaven" captured me right from the start and never lost momentum.The story starts with the introduction of Micky Bellsong and Leilani Klonk, whom you immedately feel at home with. The way in wich these two carry on together would make for a good comedy sitcom! The story immedately throws you into a world of a E.T. searching, Phsyco stepdad, doped up mother, and many other wonderfuly interesting characters. This book keeps you on the edge of your seat right up to the last 20 or so pages, Which in my eyes is a big plus!!! I highly recomend this book,Especially if your a die hard Koontz fan!!! Thanks for such a wonderful and thought provoking book Mr. Koontz I am looking for to the next one!!!
