I didn't like the style of this book at all. I'm not super fond of the characters either. But by page 50 or so the story picks up, and it does keep you turning pages from then on.
Really clever retelling of a classic story. Maguire clearly has a great mind, and it was put to good use here. The Wicked Witch as you've never seen her before. Looking forward to seeing where the series goes after this.
Felt a bit more random than the other Odd Thomas books, but it did keep you wondering what the end result would be. Rarely a dull moment, if many confusing ones.

Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo
Great, great read. Lots of humor, never a dull moment, leaves you wishing you had the whole series piled up next to your chair.

My mother had me read this because she wanted to know how much of the technology was real or accurate. Really good read. And disconcerting.
