Helpful Score: 1


The concept of a psychopathic, killer computer is not a particularly new concept. The twist that Dean Koontz puts on this novel that I really liked was that it was written in first person narrative perspective, from the point of view of that computer, complete with spontaneous outbursts of frustration. This was pure genius.

The only real drawback to "Demon Seed" was that it ended rather abruptly. This is a minor complaint, however.

This book is highly recommendable for anyone who likes a good thriller.
