‘Since reading Lumley’s Necroscope series, I know that vampires really do exist.’ H.R. Giger

‘Like the vampires it so full-bloodedly portrays, Brian Lumley's Necroscope series just gets stronger. His lively mix of action and monstrosity transmutes the base cliché of the vampire and turns it into a wonderfully contemporary bane.’ Fear Magazine

Harry Keogh is a necroscope - he knows the thoughts of corpses in their graves. Unfortunately for Harry, his talent works both ways. The outer limits of horror are unleashed when Harry Keogh is recruited by the E-Branch (E for ESP) of the British Secret Service to combat his own evil counterpart, the deadly Romanian Boris Dragosani.

Long buried in hallowed ground, bound by earth and silver, the master vampire schemes and plots. Trapped in unlife, neither dead nor living, Thibor Ferenczy hungers for freedom and revenge.

The vampire's human tool is Boris Dragosani, part of a super-secret Soviet spy agency. Dragosani is an avid pupil, eager to plumb the depthless evil of the vampire's mind. Ferenczy teaches Dragosani the awful skills of the necromancer, gives him the ability to rip secrets from the mind and bodies of the dead.

Dragosani works not for Ferenczy's freedom but is in the pay of an ultra-secret Soviet paranormal agency over which he means to gain power for himself with knowledge raped from the dead. His speciality is tearing secrets from the souls of newly dead traitors.

His only opponent: Harry Koegh. Like Dragosani, Harry is a necroscope who can speak with the dead. But Harry is a champion of the dead - and the living.

From the Romanian mausoleum where the undead vampire tests the limits of his bonds, the stage is set for the most horrifying, violent supernatural confrontation ever when Harry Keogh is recruited by the British Secret Service to take on Dragosani.

To protect Harry, the dead will do anything - even rise from their graves!

Medlemmers vurdering

T
Torbis – 24.09.2008

– Dette er en bok som aldri kommer til å vinne noen skjønnlitterær pris. Språket er klønete, dialogen til tider ikke særlig mere troverdig enn i en gjennomsnittlig såpeopera og forfatteren spiller åpenbart på sex og vold. Likevel klarer ikke jeg å legge boka fra meg. Hele boka reddes av selve historien. Kald krig blandet med vampyrer og en haug av mennesker med overnaturlige evner er et godt utgangspunkt. Legg så til at boka handler om to personer på hver sin side av jernteppet, da har du et bra utgangspunkt. Lumley prøver heller ikke å gjøre boka til noe mere enn det den er, billig underholdning. Jeg tror nettopp det er bokas styrke.
