Publisher Description
The hugely anticipated finale to #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz's acclaimed Odd Thomas series.
The future is haunting Odd Thomas.
The carnival has returned to Pico Mundo, the same one that came to town when Odd was just sixteen. Odd is drawn to an arcade tent where he discovers Gypsy Mummy, the fortune-telling machine that told him that he and Stormy Llewellyn were destined to be together forever.
But Stormy is dead and Pico Mundo is under threat once more. History seems to be repeating itself as Odd grapples with a satanic cult intent on bringing destruction to his town. An unseasonal storm is brewing, and as the sky darkens and the sun turns blood-red, it seems that all of nature is complicit in their plans.
Meanwhile Odd is having dreams of a drowned Pico Mundo, where the submerged streetlamps eerily light the streets. But there's no way Pico Mundo could wind up underwater... could it?

Breathtaking conclusion to an incredible journey
Dean Koontz has weaved a suspenseful, unique tapestry of one fry cook’s struggle against the forces of darkness throughout this entire series, leading inexorably to this inescapable conclusion. Brilliantly crafted, expertly paced, alternately (and often simultaneously) terrifying and hilarious, Koontz urges us along Odd’s final road with the hope that he not only thwarts evil, but somehow, somewhere, manages to attain the one thing that has been promised to him; the one thing he has held out hope for during his entire journey… a journey that leads him full-circle, as we are all led, back home.
Thank you Dean for sharing this series, these incredible characters and moments, and especially Odd himself, with us. May he—and you—remain fully smooth and blue.
