Review

"One of the best writers in the field." --John Farris

"Lumley's strength is in his jovial voice, a diction that dominates the narrative. Lumley's love of his pulp-horror subjects is gleefully apparent. He revels in every telling detail, in stories-within-stories...." --San Francisco Chronicle

"Lumley never oversteps the delicate line between blood-chilling horror and cold gruel. An accomplished wordsmith, Lumley wields a pen with the deft skill of a surgeon, drawing just enough blood to titillate without offending his readers." --The Phoenix Gazette

Product Description

In this third volume of the Necroscope trilogy, finally in hardcover, Harry Keogh is a Necroscope; one who can speak to the dead. This talent makes him the only man who can defeat the evil alien vampires that have threatened mankind for centuries. Now Harry knows the truth about the monsters he has been fighting for years, and must use that truth to defeat the Wamphyri once and for all; to hit them at the source.

5.0�toiles sur 5 Best of the first three, Jui 8 2002

Par	Joe Horn "cookingquest" (reno, nv) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This book has it all. The KGB, Ebranch, Keogh jr and sr and many bad guys. I would say this one has been the most interesting. The land were the vampires come from was amazing. I wish there was more about the vampires homeland though. The book could have been another 200 pages without being boring. I love to get to explore new lands.

If you liked the first two, you'll love this one.

Par	dario maragni (pa, usa) - Voir tous mes commentaires

Although I thought that necroscope 1 couldn't be equalled; the source dominates where wamphyri came up short. The descriptions of the warriors and the aeries, as well as the alternate world, were nothing but terrifying curiosities. With a touch of quantum physics and sheer horror; Mr. Lumley combines interesting scientific theories with monsters that seem to stay with you even after the book is put down. I really liked the way he added a more human and personal feel to the wamphyri hosts. The flirtatious Jazz and his interest in Zek is also a great addition to the story and keeps it moving even during the otherwise transitional and seemingly slow-moving stages in the book. I was actually taken by suprise with this book because I thought that for sure necroscope should have stayed a one book creation. I thought my theory was correct with my dissapointment in part 2. But Mr. Lumley did what all great saga writers do: instead of taking a story that seems to have used up its creative limitations and carrying it on like a soap opera(R. Jordan, unfortunately);he built on it and formed a whole new landscape of ideas to read about. Especially when it comes to Harry sr. metamorphisies throughout each book. He has been through so much and has taken a couple of forms through his journies that he has an almost detatched and alienated relationship with his former love and with most of the living for that matter. I could feel his loneliness when he saw Brenda for the first time in eight years and he couldn't even bear to look at her. Harry will always be moving on and changing in the eyes of the living, but he will always be static, ubiquitous, respected and loved in the eyes of the dead!

3.0�toiles sur 5 Left a little to be desired..., D�c 30 2000

Par	"jlmillr22" (Champaign, IL) - Voir tous mes commentaires

I am a huge fan of the first two books in the series, and I was really expecting the same kind of intensity that books one and two had. Most of the story takes place on another planet in another dimension, and I didn't like it as much as the previous two books where everything occured in our world.

My final recommendation: Read it only after the first two books in the series. The fourth book is definitely worth the effort.
