Published In: United Kingdom, 30 September 2010
The second graphic novel adventure featuring Dean Koontz's hugely popular character, Odd Thomas. It's almost Halloween in Pico Mundo, and that means it's time for the annual Safe Halloween Party, hosted by Police Chief Porter. All seems perfectly normal -- until Odd catches sight of the ghost of a young girl who seems to be trying to join in the festivities. Odd's next clue that something threatens his peaceful town is the appearance of a swarm of bodachs -- supernatural beings who herald some deadly event. With the help of his girlfriend, Stormy, and some vital information from the ghost of Elvis Presley, will Odd be able to forestall disaster?

4 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 19/02/2011

If you liked the first Odd Thomas graphic novel then you will not be disappointed. These books represent an impressive collaboration between Fred Van Lente, Dean Koontz and Queenie Chan.

As a fan of the novels it was interesting to see Odd Thomas in a differant format. Queenie Chan's artwork is exceptional and the art-style in this book is great. Whilst not a long story, it was definately entertaining.

I can't help but feel that these graphic novels are a watered down version of the Odd Thomas stories. Koontz has made these books alot more accessible to a younger audience at the risk of losing some of his older fans. Just because you add pictures to a story doesn't mean you have to make it for children. You can look at the majority of Japanese anime to see this is true.

I would recommend this for any fan of the Odd Thomas series and for young adults in general with a love of the supernatural. Although Koontz seems to be targeting a younger audience with these titles he is still an exceptional story teller.
