What is the author's style in Icebound: A Novel by Dean Koontz?

The novel is written in simple English. The novel is easy to read for readers of all ages, including very few phrases that would not be familiar to the average reader. The novel uses some words that are of a scientific nature, such as the word fathometer, but most of these words are either familiar because of common use in the American dialect, or they are explained in the text so that the reader can understand the use or purpose of the item or word.
