Harry Keogh: Necroscope and Other Weird Heroes! » (First Edition)

Brian Lumley is the author of the Necroscope series, most recently, Necroscope: Avengers, the Psychomech trilogy, the Titus Crow novels, the Dreamlands series, and many works of short fiction. He lives in England.

"Wide-angle horror of a scope too rarely seen in modern fiction. A feast for the horror fan."

—F. Paul Wilson

"Lumley still excels at depicting heroes larger than life and horrors worse than death."

—Publishers Weekly on Necroscope: Avengers

"Lumley's original portrayal of paranormal powers, his dry wit, and a long, thundering climax assure that this hefty book will handsomely reward readers."

—Booklist on Necroscope: Defilers

"Lumley's pure narrative energy and just sheer joy carries the book along. Lumley's imagination always works overtime and new concepts are fired at the reader with amazing regularity."

—Ashland News on Necroscope: Resurgence

"Lumley is obviously very bright, articulate, and in possession of an incredibly wild imagination."

—Rapport

"Rivals Anne Rice's vampire saga....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."

—The Phoenix Gazette on Blood Brothers

"This complex, fast-paced, and challenging novel is a highly successful blend of genres and should appeal to fans of horror, fantasy, and espionage. Lumley deserves a wide audience among those who love both Anne Rice and John Grisham—or maybe Stephen King."

—VOYA on The Last Aerie

Publishers Weekly

Necroscope fans will welcome Brian Lumley's Harry Keogh: Necroscope and Other Weird Heroes!, featuring three new stories about Keogh (who speaks to and brings comfort to the dead) plus five reprints: three tales of time-traveler Titus Crow and two dreamland adventures of David Hero and Eldin the Wanderer. All are vintage Lumley, full of flatfooted prose and endless yakking about the occult. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
