I'm not a Dean Koontz fan at all but I have to say I actually thought
Odd Thomas was pretty damn good.
Anyhow here's what I'm reading
It's a collection of old short stories from before or around the time
Trainspotting was written. Still doesn't have that same spark that made
Trainspotting so amazing, but it is definitely on par with
The Acid House, my second favorite collection of writing by Irvine Welsh. It definitely has Welsh's demented black humor to it, especially the second story about the homophobic man who dies, that had me in stitches. Begbie (from Trainspotting) does make an appearance at a Christmas dinner with his family and his sisters new boyfriend. All in all it's far better than the last collection of writing he released,
If You Like School, Than You'll Love Work.
