Story
In retreat from a devastating loss and crushing injustice, Katie lives alone in a fortresslike stone house on Jacob’s Ladder island. Once a rising star in the art world, she finds refuge in her painting. The neighboring island of Ringrock houses a secret: a government research facility. And now two agents have arrived on Jacob’s Ladder in search of someone—or something—they refuse to identify. Although an air of menace hangs over these men, an infinitely greater threat has arrived, one so strange even the island animals are in a state of high alarm.

Publisher's Summary
There are millions of stories in the city - some magical, some tragic, others terror-filled or triumphant. Jonah Kirk’s story is all of those things as he draws listeners into his life in the city as a young boy, introducing his indomitable grandfather, also a "piano man"; his single mother, a struggling singer; and the heroes, villains, and everyday saints and sinners who make up the fabric of the metropolis in which they live - and who will change the course of Jonah’s life forever.
Welcome to The City, a place of evergreen dreams where enchantment and malice entwine, where courage and honor are found in the most unexpected corners and the way forward lies buried deep inside the heart.

I absolutely loved this book!!!
Some of the reviews I read for this book weren’t so great so I didn’t know what to think. As it was free and I needed something to listen I downloaded it. Thank God I did… this book is fantastic. It’s actually beautiful. I even cried a few times towards the end.. yeah it got me. The narrator was perfect and I’ll say it again this book was beautiful. I loved it

Engrossing
I enjoyed the story and the ability of the narrator to draw me in, while at times it was a little wordy in was in keeping with the era

Dean Koontz, you’ve let me down
Even with a good narrator, this book was terrible. I tried 3 times and just couldn’t get it finished.

Not great
I have been a Koontz fan for years and have read most of his large catalog of titles. I wanted to like this and parts of it were good but towards the end I just couldn’t wait for it to be over. Slow and drawn out; disappointing

Without a doubt the most boring story I've heard.
Even though it was free, I still feel ripped off. 13 hrs of my life I won't get back.
