Necroscope Series

These series of book are by far the BEST vampire thriller books available. I seldom read a book twice, let alone a series, but I have read this series several times. the character development and descriptive prose paint an indelible picture in ones mind. Get the series and your only regret will be the end of the series. Reminds you that good guys can make a difference.

Deadspeak

I have read Necroscope, Vamphyri, The Lost Years Vol. 1, Resurgence: The Lost Years Vol. 2, The Source, and I am just finishing Deadspeak. This is the best series on Vampires I have read, in my life. These books are so much better than the Anne Rice series. There is none of the "woe is me, I am a lonely creature of the night" B. S. Lumley's Vampires would stake an Anne Rice vamp, chop off its head, pour gasoline all over it, light a match and [...] on the remaining embers. Finally, we have some blood-sucking, evil creatures of the night that would put most trial lawyers to shame. The mixture of Ludlum-esque espionage and Stephen King vamps on PCP and LSD is great.

Awesome series

I have read all 10 books in Lumleys vampire series . The character (Harry Keogh) has a special chemistry that just draws you in. You will not be able to put the book down.

Harry's only alternative, another world

This threw me for a loop. After reading the preceding books, I thought Harry's life couldn't get any worse, it did (Read the lost years to find out more, Poor Harry). The return of Shaitan and Shaitas was a great way to give Harry and his group a hard time and new problems. This final book in the Necroscope series before the Lost Years sets up the hero of this five book rampage to a thrilling ending. I'm still in aw after what I read.

Harry Keogh's only chance now lies in another universe

As the Necroscope, Harry Keogh has the unique ability to speak with the dead. But now that he has become infected with vampirism, the dead shun him as they do all vampires. Most of his former friends at E-branch (short for ESPionage), sensing a change in Harry, regard him with suspicion. Nonetheless, he finds himself helping to track a bizarre killer, a sadist who tortures his victims not only before murdering them but, with his necromantic powers, even after they have died.Harry knows that with the change in his nature E-branch will give him no peace in this world; he ultimately must retreat to the universe where vampires -- the Wamphyri -- originated. There he discovers a new romantic interest, the one Wamphyri Lady remaining in their traditional stronghold. The few other Wamphyri survivors of the war described in NECROSCOPE III: THE SOURCE have fled to the arctic wastes of their world. Wamphyri Lords Shaitan and Shaithis, however, are planning a comeback -- and Harry does not have resources to fight them as he has before.DEADSPAWN has the densely plotted suspense and spy/counterspy tactics of previous Necroscope novels, and just when you think there can't be one more twist -- there is! Time comes full circle in a thought-provoking finale that makes Harry a figure of cosmological significance, at once an end and beginning to the world of Lumley's Wamphyri.
