About this listen

There are millions of stories. Some magical, some tragic, others terror-filled or triumphant. Jonah Kirk’s story is all of these things as he introduces his indomitable ‘piano man’ grandfather; his single mother, a beautiful, struggling singer; and every day saints and sinners who will change the course of Jonah’s life. Welcome to The City, a place where enchantment and malice entwine, and the way forward lies buried deep inside the heart.

Critic Reviews

"Bestselling author Dean Koontz is at the peak of his storytelling powers with this major new novel, a rich, multi-layered story that moves back and forth across decades and generations."
Praise for the author:
"Dean Koontz is not just a master of our darkest dreams, but also a literary juggler" (The Times)
"A terrific pursuit story … clever, up-to-the-minute, and riveting" (Guardian)

I’m a huge Dean Koontz fan, have read everything he’s writing, but I found this slow, boring and totally uninteresting. I couldn’t relate to any characters other than the man character and found the story drifted and swayed too much to remain interesting. Sure his next will be better. Disappointing.
