What is the author's style in Phantoms by Dean Koontz?

The language in the novel is modern and straightforward, as the story takes place in the present day. The characters express themselves clearly, allowing the reader to get a better sense of who they are, as well as how they feel. There is a bit of medical terminology in the novel, as one of the main characters, Jennifer Paige, is a doctor, though it is written in such a way that the reader does not get bogged down in technical terms.
