Dean Koontz, on his very best day, could never write a book that even approaches The Shining, Salem's Lot, The Body, Pet Semetary... any of a half-dozen King books. I have plenty of material from both and they're not on the same level or anywhere remotely close to it.
Koontz is clumsily political (on the right wing side) and every other novel features some good guy who has a 'psychic connection' to the bad guy. I read him because there's a real scarcity of good horror genre novelists, but honestly... he's repetitive and just not that good.
