Description Concering Books The Voice of the Night
No one could understand why Colin and Roy were best friends. Colin was so shy; Roy was so popular. Colin was nervous around girls; Roy was a ladies’ man. Colin was fascinated by Roy — and Roy was fascinated with death. Then one day Roy asked his timid friend, “You ever killed anything?” And from that moment on, the two were bound together in a game too terrifying to imagine… and too irresistible to stop.Includes an afterword by the author.

I'm really not sure how to rate this book.SPOILER!!This book really was great. Roy being the kid that knew how to manipulate someone weak like Colin. A few times I almost expected a supernatural element to come through, but one never did. "The game." pushing Colin to be what he never thought be could be. I seriously thoroughly enjoyed this book.Until the end.It got cut off, without really explaining how it ended. Personally, I wanted Colin to shoot Roy, let him die and show everyone why.

The Voice of the Night explores how our past experiences, family relationships and relationship with our peers shape our lives & influence our decisions. Koontz highlights his classic storytelling with a mix of Horror & a love of Science Fiction.Favorite Passages: To Colin, who was a
Not one of my fav Koontz novels. I had a hard time finding parts believable. Colin was too naive and Roy wasn't evil enough.
A story of 14 year old boys that start off as friends who turn against each other. Not my cup of tea, but I guess the writing is okay. 3 of 10 stars
I didn't realize that I had read this book many years ago when it was published under the name Brian Coffey. A few years ago I bought it when it was released on kindle under the name Dean Koontz. As I finally got around to reading it, bits and pieces came back to me.Anyway, Colin is a shy and quiet, friendless, boy who loves to read and watch movies. His parents are divorced and he lives with his mother who is almost never home and does not seem to have much if any time for him.He strikes up a
2.5 starsNothing to really say about this book.
