Among Dean Koontz' finest work, "From the corner of His Eye" presents a large cast of characters whose destinies intertwine. We start with Junior Cain, the antagonist, who commits a horrible act that sets into petition much of the rest of the story. Cain sees signs anywhere while he awaits some sort of sinister retribution for his crimes. He becomes convinced that man named Bartholomew will be the cause for his destruction. Meanwhile, a boy named Bartholomew loses his father just before his birth, then his eyesight at the age of three years. He possesses a knowledge beyond his years, however, and copes with the loss of vision. With his mum (a well-know pie-maker), and citizen he meets during his life, a final judgment comes to Junior Cain, and a recompense to Bartholomew.
There are, of course, a slew of other important characters, from artists to doctors, and even a man who has found his life's mission to walk from town to town. They are all associated to one an additional one in some way, and many of them will come together to form a sort of house by the end.

Fans of Dean Koontz will appreciate the intricate plot and the benevolent message of "From the corner of His Eye." Fans of thrillers and mysteries will enjoy the novel, too, for its twists and turns and its unpredictability
I particularly liked the message of the book - that so many lives are intertwined, each fate depending on each other. A higher power or plan brings these citizen together. There is an explanation behind tragedy and a purpose behind the confusion.
There isn't a thing I disliked about this novel. I feel it's one of Koontz' best works. I have read comment that the novel is too long (768 pages for the paperback), but it felt just right to me.
As I often feel with Koontz novels, as I done this one, I wanted to pick up another. For me, his writing style only gets good with each novel.
Dean Koontz has penned several bestseller novels, and his writing style has only improved over the decades. For me, his novels seem to have become more purposeful, enriching and philosophical. Most of his novels consist of a message - many keen a connectivity among human destinies or fates.
You'll get far more than an average story or novel when you pick up a Koontz novel these days, and such is the case with "Corner." Not only will you find a suspenseful plot, but characters you no ifs ands or buts care about, bits of quantum physics and an important philosophical theme. I highly propose this novel!
