Into the Out of

As a fan of Stephen King and Dean Koontz, Into The Out Of is the only book that made me sleep with the lights on! This book presents the "boogy man" as real and exposes the "darkside" in ways that most would not care to believe. I have read this book several times through the years and have recommended it to many. If you're looking for an entertaining read, this is great! If your looking for facts and figures, try a text book.

I read this book some years back and I have been recommending it to others who can track it down. What a great read - sometimes suspenseful, mysterious, and creepy. This is Alan's best work and it would make one hell of a movie. Give it a shot - you will not be sorry.

Alan Dean Foster just does not fail, it's has simple has that. I was look through a book collection at the local flee market when I thought my eyes where playing tricks on me and I saw an ADF novel. Naturally I grapped it, pay'd for it, and whent home to read it. This book simply rocks!! It has an original plot (A norm for ADF) that holds you until you have finished reading the book. The plot in a nut shell is that the border between reak and unreal is weakning and a Massai wise guy goes out and finds two americans to fight with him against them. Filled with desciptions of horrid monsters and filty beings this is a must for every one and mandatory buy for all ADF fans!!

This is excellent reading from an author who has covered a broad range of topics. An African Massai Laibon (leader) goes to America to find two special people and bring them back to Africa to stop an evil force from coming through to our world. Fantastic imagery, wonderful and believable characters and an African myth brought to life and you'll NEVER look at tire rubber on the side of the road the same again! ;) Full of twists, frights, humor and great interactions. It's out of print... it's worth finding!!

This book has nothing to do with any of his series and is not what you could call his 'usual' Sci-fi writing. Although I have read and enjoyed almost all of his books, this book is the one I consider his most unique and distinctive writing. The first four chapters start out real slow as he builds the background for the main characters and their inescapable meeting. After the fifth chapter I could not put the book down. Every time I re-read the book, I find something I missed before. If you want a book to escape into for the week-end, this one will do it.
