5.0 out of 5 stars The Source for great horror...Brian Lumley, January 8, 1998

As I sat down to start reading the third book of Brian Lumley's Necroscope series, I admit I was a bit skeptical of it. The first book, Necroscope, was nearly perfect and very enjoyable. In my experience with outstanding first books in a series, it is rare the books that follow ever meet their potential. Brian Lumley has provided a challenger which definitely lives up to its potential.

The novel seemlessly sews two(and potentially more) books together and clears up many of the questions left from the previous two books. This book is not just a rehash of his previous books, but still touches the back to past events.

Also, for readers of Lumley who have waited awhile to pick up this edition, they should not let that stop them. Lumley includes enough details about the past books to refresh your memory. It had been almost a year since I read Necroscope II and this books rushed those great memories right back in full force.

Definitely get this book and read it, it will bring that passion for the (un)dead back like nothing else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Go Lumley!, April 10, 2000

This review is from: The Source (Hardcover)

Lumley has done it again with this great sequal to his preveious two books. It reintroduces one of my preveious favorite characters (Zek) and introduces some new ones! This story I must adimt, as well as his previous book (Vamphryi) was not as strong as his first book Necroscope, though this is a great book altogether anyway! I highly suggest this book for anyone who enjoys reading vampire novels, enjoys good blood as well as action!

Five Stars! Go Lumley!

5.0 out of 5 stars 3rd in the series that is one of the all-time best ever!, July 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Necroscope 3: The Source (Necroscope Trilogy, Volume 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

This installment is one of the best horror/sci-fi/fantasy series that is in existence today. The writing is some of the best - fast-paced and frightingly real-like. It makes you almost believe the history of the vampires is real its so well done. And then he throws in werewolves! These are novels that you will want to re-read over and over - GUARANTEED! I don't even usually read this genre of book, but Lumley does it soooo well with an added mixture that mixes so well together. If only hollywood were smart enough to make this into a film, were talking for sure MEGA-BUCKS people! A must read.
