<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In an all-new afterword, Koontz explains the impact this novel has had on his career. One of his most chilling bestsellers--a tale of an abandoned town and the unimaginable truth behind its silence--was the basis for the 1998 motion picture starring Peter O'Toole and Ben Affleck, with the screenplay written by Koontz.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"<i>Phantoms</i> is gruesome and unrelenting...It's well realized, intelligent, and humane."--Stephen King</b> <p/>They found the town silent, apparently abandoned. Then they found the first body, strangely swollen and still warm. One hundred fifty were dead, 350 missing. But the terror had only begun in the tiny mountain town of Snowfield, California. <p/>At first they thought it was the work of a maniac. Or terrorists. Or toxic contamination. Or a bizarre new disease. <p/>But then they found the truth. And they saw it in the flesh. And it was worse than anything any of them had ever imagined...<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Scary and stylish."--<i>Los Angeles Times <p/></i>"First-rate...scary and plausible."--<i>Publishers Weekly <p/></i>"Gruesome and unrelenting."--Stephen King <p/>"Stunning. <i>Phantoms</i> is an instant classic."--<i>Chicago Sun-Times <p/></i>"Koontz has outdone himself."--<i>Philadelphia Daily News <p/></i><b>More Praise for Dean Koontz <p/></b>"Dean Koontz is a prose stylist whose lyricism heightens malevolence and tension.
