Well, there you have the list.  I'll try to label the pen names by what 
subject he usually writes about:

Dean R. Koontz:  Old books - Usually Sci-fi  Newer - Horror  Comedy - Hanging
		 On  Crime Drama - About the Last Race
		 
Brian Coffey:	Mystery/Suspense/Horror

K.R. Dwyer:	Suspense/Crime Drama

Richard Paige:  Horror

Leigh Nichols:  Horror

Owen West:   	Horror

John Hill:	Sci-fi/Horror

Aaron Wolfe:	Sci-fi

David Axton:	Crime Drama/Suspense

Anthony North:	Crime Drama/Suspense

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although I've been told it's an unpopular opinion to have here :-), I must
admit that I really enjoy Dean Koontz's work.  I think he's very imaginative
and I really like his writing style.  Just MHO.  BTW, I haven't read most of
the above books, only his "mainstream" stuff.
