Odd Thomas Graphic Novels
3 primary works
Book 1
From the infinite imagination of #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz comes the suspenseful graphic-novel debut of a natural-born hero with a supernatural twist.
Odd Thomas is a regular nineteen-year-old with an unusual gift: the ability to see the lingering spirits of the dead. To Odd, it’s not such a big deal. And most folks in sleepy Pico Mundo, California, are much more interested in the irresistible pancakes Odd whips up at the local diner. Still, communing with the dead can be useful. Because while some spirits only want a little company . . . others want justice.
When the sad specter of a very frightened boy finds its way to him, Odd vows to root out the evil suddenly infecting the sunny streets of Pico Mundo. But even with his exceptional ability–plus the local police and his pistol-packing girlfriend, Stormy, backing him–is Odd any match for a faceless stalker who’s always a step ahead . . . and determined to kill again?
Book 2
The one and only Odd Thomas is back—in his second edgy and enthralling graphic-novel adventure from #1 New York Times bestselling suspense master Dean Koontz.
It’s Halloween in Pico Mundo, California, and there’s a whiff of something wicked in the autumn air. While the town prepares for its annual festivities, young fry cook Odd Thomas can’t shake the feeling that make-believe goblins and ghouls aren’t the only things on the prowl. And he should know, since he can see what others cannot: the spirits of the restless dead. But even his frequent visitor, the specter of Elvis Presley, can’t seem to point Odd in the right direction.
With the help of his gun-toting girlfriend, Stormy, Odd is out to uncover the terrible truth. Is something sinister afoot in the remote barn guarded by devilish masked men? Has All Hallows Eve mischief taken a malevolent turn? Or is the pleading ghost of a trick-or-treater a frightening omen of doom?
Book 3
The third graphic novel adventure featuring Dean Koontz’s hugely popular character, Odd Thomas – the small-town fry-cook who can see the dead.
Odd Thomas’s bestselling author friend, Ozzie Boone, asks Odd to pay a call on an old friend: Hollywood producer Nedra Nolan, who has just bought a dilapidated mansion in Pico Mundo and hopes to make it her retirement hideaway.
However, mysterious occurrences – windows opening of their own accord, rooms going cold, and chandeliers crashing to the floor – have frightened away every workman she hires.
Odd and his girlfriend Stormy think they can determine what might be haunting the huge old house. But not even Odd’s ability to see the lingering dead can prepare him for the horror he discovers in the rambling cellar…
