Library & Archives > Summer Reading > Velocity by Dean Koontz

Velocity by Dean Koontz

August 1, 2012 by Amanda VerMeulen

VelocityIf you enjoy reading books by Koontz, King, and the like, then you should definitely check out this book. Having said that, I believe it goes without saying that this book is not for the faint of heart. It is one of the strangest and darkest books I have read because it takes place entirely within the realm of real human action — nothing supernatural. It is a reminder of the lengths people will go to make their point but also of how much people are willing to do for the ones they love. Best of all, this book keeps you on the edge of your seat and drops your jaw by the end.
