ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Taking by Dean Koontz commences with an unusual and violent rainstorm that signals the beginning of inexplicable global events. Protagonists Molly and Neil Sloan find their reality fractured by bizarre phenomena, including strange animal behavior and disturbing media reports. As the world outside their mountain home descends into chaos, they confront a dawning realization of an otherworldly presence and a potential existential threat to humanity. The narrative explores themes of survival, the fragility of reality, and the human spirit's response to the unknown and terrifying.
