In NYC, in the midst of a 100-year storm, a police officer and his female partner, struggle to keep the minions from hell away from his two young children. It's a race to see if the officer and his family, or the evil Voodoo Bocor will triumph.

This was a really fast read and I enjoyed the race through NYC during a raging snowstorm as they fought to keep alive against the creepy, bitey, chewy little devils. ( )

If you like Dean Koontz, you'll enjoy this. Dark magic, mafia and the personal and professional life of policemen come together for an entertaining read. ( )

The creatures from hell and the supreme fight between good and evil are deliciously brought out in this book. Koontz is excellent in the good versus evil game, but the portrayal of voodoo as the cement of all religions and the insight into the branches of voodooism are worthwhile things to know, I think. It earns five stars from the incessant pounding of the plot and the combination of horror, drama, humour, and romance. This is one of Koontz' first novels, published under another name and another title back in the day, but Berkley put out this one as "Darkfall" under Koontz' name in 2007. ( )
