Book Description

HIGH TIDE IN A SEA OF BLOOD!

...And for Harry Keagh, Necroscope, the tide has finally turned. Always the champion of the living and the dead alike, now Harry is shunned by all men. The hunter of the evil that stalks the night becomes the hunted. Always the hero, now he is the plague-bearer, the menace — the monster!

But yet his greatest battle will be with himself, with the Thing Inside. For Necroscope is now a vampire.

Forsaken by the teeming dead pursued by the espers of E-branch, Harry has a choice: to be banished, hounded right out of this world.... or to release the plague which he carries within himself upon all humanity!

DEADSPAWN raises the pitch of supernatural terror in Brian Lumley's bestselling Necroscope series to shrieking new levels of nightmare. Abandon hope of blood-free dreams, all who enter here...

As much as I love the series so far, I thought this one was not the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep, Heavy, Satisfying., Aug 17 2001
By Dr Andy Lange (Audubon, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This fifth installment of the Necroscope series tackles the world of protagonist Harry Keogh in a much broader scope than ever before. I consider the previous volume, Deadspeak, as a warmup to this fine work of fiction. True to his Lovecraftian roots, Lumley challenges the reader to delve into areas of knowledge that defy men's minds to comprehend.

As the Necroscope battles foes both human and inhuman, his struggles remain primarily internal. Striving to find deeper meaning in the world around him, Harry seeks the true nature of the mysterious Mobius Continuum that has served him to well over the years. He learns new and terrible powers that blur the line between life and death itself!

Heartbreaking events abound in this conclusion to the original Necroscope 5-part series. Harry is saddened to learn that it was not his Necroscopic abilities that made him unique, but rather his innocence. For there are others possessed of the same awesome powers, but not so kind of heart! We also learn the fate of the Dweller, aka Harry Jr., and Victor Luchov, the Projekt Director of Perchorsk.

Lastly, in an epilogue reminiscent of Stephen King's masterful The Stand, we (along with Harry) gain insight into the nature of Evil itself, as well as a glimpse back to the paradoxical genesis of the Wamphyri themselves!

5.0 out of 5 stars DEADSPAWN!, Mar 2 2000
I loved this book! Harry Keogh, the wonderful character that you come to know and love through the miraculous series of books, takes on a whole new definition of "different." I find Lumley's vampires facinating; they're not the typical vampires, that's a given. If you're tired of Anne Rice and her pitiful, innocent vampires, check this one out! A masterful conclusion!
