HAH!!! Was trying to figure that out...thought maybe you were using the 1st initial of multiple characters.

Hi Mary. Sorry for the delay. Matthew, thank you for the pick up. At this point Odd has found the Church of the Whispering Comet, and a pack of coyotes has found him. Odd spoke these words to the 'guardian angel' that saved him from evisceration.

I'm not a fan of Mr. Fungus either...

Lori Wendt (loriwendt90) | 4 comments Running a tad behind, but had forgotten how good this book was! Appreciate the nudge to read them again.


Susan Beamon (susanbeamon) | 71 comments Finished this volume. I may actually get this series read in order and mostly on time. I liked the book.

Fred (fredderoche) Small description - Odd Thomas Must find/kill the “ghost” Fungus Man, after he kills a “young” girl, in Odd’s Pico Mundo...
A “smooth” tone is given if you listen versus read.

The reader for the Odd audio books is brilliant...he nails Odd's humorous tone perfectly. I've only listened to two (Brother Odd and Odd Hours) but thoroughly enjoyed both. Brother is my fav Odd so I actually own both the audio AND hardcover of that.

I listen to the audiobooks too. David Aaron Baker is the narrator for all the Odd Thomas books. Random House and Brilliance Audio knew they had to get this right.
For those just finishing Odd Thomas, not to worry. There is plenty of time to catch up. I'll be starting Forever Odd this week and plan to read. Brother Odd at the beginning of September. Only a few people are ahead and reading Brother Odd right now.
Thanks everyone & Happy Reading!
