Phantoms by Dean Koontz
4.0
I hadn't read Koontz since I was a teenager, so I wasn't sure how well the story would have aged.
It was a little outdated with technology and science, which is to be expected, but otherwise, I felt it held up pretty well. I especially like how any sexualising of women was written in a disapproving and unacceptable way, which isn't common in books from the early 1980s.
Phantoms was always my favourite Koontz book, and I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting it.
The pacing is just right, the characters are well-developed, and I enjoyed how they generally responded in believable ways to what was occurring.
