The Husband

WOW! gr8 book. could not stop listening to this book, all I won't to do is sit in my car intell I got to the end.

Couldn't get past the first cd. So much filler description, and the narration was grating.

I enjoyed the book but the narration was quite grating on the nerves. It sounded like 'surfer talk", and at times sickeningly "syrup-y".

The story was great, the person reading it took some getting used to..and even then got on my nerves sometimes. Loved the book.

Wow! This book was exciting from beginning to end. Very enjoyable - I was sad when it was over. One of those books where you hated to get out of the car, and just wanted to sit and listen to what happened next.

This was the best Koontz that I have read in some time. I was gripped right away! He got away from his super-natural tendencies, and this is just real-life action! I found myself cussing out loud and cheering on the good guys! I love this reader too. He does a lot of Nicholas Sparks' books.

fast pace and holds the attention. not the typical subject matter of Dean Koontz, so a surprise. I enjoy all his books but this one goes to the top of my Koontz list.

I did not find this story be intriguing... and did not care for the reader. Koontz could do better...

A great Koontz novel. He never went where I expected him too. Kept me guessing the whole time as to what would happen next.

I gave it 3 stars for intensity, but the ending was predicatable. I fell asleep on the narrator a lot too.

Im glad this was found entertaining to readers of all ages. I give it 3 stars for intensity.

Amazing love story with unexpexted twists. Could have used a better narrator tho.

This was a very good book! Unlike some of the other reviews listed here, I didn't mind the narrator at all. I thought he did a good job. The book is fast paced and a very enjoyable listen. Give it a try.

This may actually be a great story, but the narrator is absolutely horrible. I considered jumping out of my car at a high speed after enduring the first CD. Fortunately good sense prevailed and i sent the book back immediately. I'll have to pickup the paperback on this one.

I really liked the book, but the reader was so syrupy sing-song voiced that I couldn't stand listening to it. It was all I could do to get through this audiobook.

I enjoyed this book. Not the typical Koontz novel full of super natural weirdness. But a good story!

This one just wasn't for me. It just wasn't my kind of book. I didn't finish it...couldn't get into it at all. Really hard to listen to. Maybe it was too much of a thriller for me.

Very good book -- kept my interest from page 1. Unfortunately another reviewer spoiled it for me -- Lea -- please don't give away the ending on any other books. Once you said it "had a happy ending," it totally spoiled it for me.

Even though ending was predictable, this was a great story with several unexpected twists. Riveting until the end. Narrator was excellent.

I liked it a lot, but always knew at the back of my mind that it was going to be a happy ending! Not saying that is bad, but it was kind of predictable. I liked the narrator a lot. He's good with his craft.

I LIKED THE AUDIOBOOK, I LIKED THE NARRATOR BUT I LIKED SOME OF HIS OTHER BOOKS BETTER.

This was the very best of Dean Koontz!I listen to countless thrillers by many different authors; and without a doubt, this was the only book that kept the intrigue going thru out the whole book. Never a dull moment. A few twists that kept you rivoted to the action . The narrator was superb.If you love thrillers, this one is a must read in an unabridged form! I promise, you won't be disapointed!

This book will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time...Twists and turns are endless....You will enjoy this one. I found myself sometimes yelling at the stereo in my car during the really intense parts...

I loved this book, it kept me hooked from start to fininsh.

I thought it was great! I love the twist the writer puts into his books! It kept me on edge until the end!

This is a great mystery book. The narrator added to the pleasure of listening to this thriller.

Another great Dean Koontz book. This one totally hooked me! I usually limit my audio book time to my commute, but I found myself listening to this one at home in the evening. The characters were well developed and believable. The narrator was excellent.

I've never read a D.K. I didn't love, and The Husband not only delivers, but I believe he has raised his own bar. I found myself making excuses to take longer routes to work or extra trips to the store, all to catch the next few words or get to the next CD. And I'm not normally thrown by story twists, but this one tossed me in the lake. Great read. I'd listen again in a second.

Excellent book. Recommended reading. Very suspenseful. If you like Dean Koontz, you will enjoy reading this book.

I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it. It showed true love and bravery and just how far someone is willing to go when tested. I was surprised that it was possible coming from someone with such weird, so-called parents.. All the characters were 'interesting'. There were lots of surprises. I had a good time listening.

This book was great. Dean Koontz comes through again. Keeps you guessing right until the end.

I enjoyed the book, but it didn't have the Koontz style that I enjoy

Clearly not one of Dean’s best novels. I was very disappointed with the (yawn) mundane and predictable storyline. Way too much unimportant long-winded dialog. I missed the intense excitement of his earlier novels.

The reader seemed dull at the beginning but the book was good enough to keep our interest. I feel the ending could have been better. Too much left out. Still a great book.

Another great book by Dean Koontz. I think all women would like to have a husband like Mitch. Someone who would do anything to save his wife. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a thriller that keeps you on the edge with all kinds of twists and turns until the end.

Koontz doesn't disappoint often and he certainly didn't with this novel. I couldn't wait to get back in the car and continue the story. It had a great twist at the end.

Overall, a great story, that kept me riveted. Some of his stories have been cheesy as of late, but this one was not. It was nice to read a story of his that didn't have any supernatural overtones again (most do). Not that there is anything wrong with that, but a nice change. The ending was somewhat abrubt, but that did not effect my opinion of the story. Overall, one of his better novels.

I just finished listening to The Husband by Dean Koontz. I started it with some trepidation as I had listened to Dragon Tears by the same author and found it very weird. However, The Husband is exciting with many twists and turns that I did not expect and I enjoyed it very much. I would recommend it to anyone.

Good story - interesting and well-narrated. At times, though, Koontz's flowery language seemed out of place in a thriller. Nevertheless, it's well worth your time.

I really liked it. The story kept me rooting for Mitch.

very good story--kept me interested from start to finish, with the usual Dean Koontz suspense and drama.

I enjoyed reading this book by Koontz. It kept me listening. The husband in this story had great determination and courage. The wife was remarkable under pressure. It was a great "read".

Really enjoyed, can't wait to get the remaining CD's

This is a story about loving someone that it hurts when something goes wrong. Mitch loves his wife so much that he was able to outwit his opponents - even his evil brother who got Mitch into this mess. An amazing audio book. I recomment that everyone should listen to this audio book.

This was the first book on tape I've listened to. It took some getting use to but I really enjoyed the narrator. He kept me involved. I am a BIG fan of Dean Koontz and enjoyed this book very much!

This is an ok story about a kidnapping, but I was disappointed when I realized there would be none of the normal supernatural "weirdness" Koontz fan love about his books. There are probably better crime stories out there if that is what you are looking for.

Another Dean Koontz good read. He hasn't let me down yet, this was good driving entertainment!

I love Dean Koontz's books. They are suspenseful, yet not graphic or full of foul language. This book was a little slow in places, but yet was good to listen to.

Riveting book. Finished it in 2 days. Better than any television show. Start to finish action. Not the typical supernatural theme from Dean Koontz but a real nail biting thriller. Mr. Koontz doesn't let his readers down.
