Publisher's summary

From the celebrated imagination of Dean Koontz comes a powerful reworking of one of the classic stories of all time. If you think you know the legend, you know only half the truth. Now the mesmerizing saga concludes....

As a devastating hurricane approaches, as the benighted creations of Victor Helios begin to spin out of control, as New Orleans descends into chaos and the future of humanity hangs in the balance, the only hope rests with Victor's first, failed attempt to build the perfect human. Deucalion's centuries-old history began as the original manifestation of a soulless vision - and it is fated to end in the ultimate confrontation between a damned creature and his mad creator. But first they must face a monstrosity not even Victor's malignant mind could have conceived - an indestructible entity that steps out of humankind's collective nightmare with powers, and a purpose, beyond imagining.

Grear way to end main trilogy

It's a really good end to the main trilogy... but is it really the end? It still sets up future books nicely as well.

I also like the link in with the Odd Thomas series in the last chapter

One of my favorites

I love this series but the narrator's use of humor and subtle vocal changes make this so incredibly entertaining!

Edge of your seat!

I absolutely loved the personalization Lane gave all the characters. He changed his voice in so many ways! It definitely kept my attention and made me want more of the Jocko character

Stars are wrong- would not let me correct

I would rate a 3 - books are too wordy. Author and editor should have condensed instead of making 5 books- more like a 4 or possibly short 4 series. Stretches patience of racer getting through unnecessary details - or unnecessary dialogue. Plus attempts to be funny or cute kind of falls flat.

Exquisite reading!

Dean Koontz does not disappoint with this one! I was fully immersed the entire time, and I’m pretty sure there will be a sequel. At least I hope there is!!!

The humanity of the characters & story is realistic, considering today's environment of general struggle for truth & decency.

Liked the story of dispair, mixed with idealism & hope for a brighter future regardless of almost impossible odds.

Great story

My only complaint is that series should be condensed into longer books. lots of things happening spreads the story out and in the grand scheme not a lot happens in each book but all together the story is fantastic.
