"Breathless" By Dean Koontz

Genre: Horror Fiction

Upon finishing this book I couldn't help but feel that there is a hope for humanity after all. Despite some dark sections of this book, it turns out to be a beautiful work of fiction in my own opinion. Things can come together so nicely.

In order to actually appreciate this piece of work you need to read the whole book. Stopping and starting again weeks later is highly discouraged by me. My reasoning is that there are several different personal accounts of various people and the book continues these stories one at a time. As the book proceeds you become aware of why each story is related to the overall story of the book.

Here is a quick synopsis of the book without giving away the secret of the actual book:

A strange event happens to several different people and animals. They all notice something is different but they are unable to pinpoint exactly what it is. One of the characters discovers strange creatures that have entered his home and he cannot identify what exactly they are. He calls his friend who is a vet and she struggles with what they are as well. The rest of the book ties the other characters in other areas into how these creatures will change how humans look at nature and the stunning effect they have on everyone they encounter.
