An instant classic, Brian Lumley's astonishing feat of imagination spawned a universe which Lumley has explored and expanded through more that a baker's dozen of novels and novellas. Millions of copies of Necroscope and its successors are in print in a dozen languages throughout the world. Nominated for the British Fantasy Award, Necroscopehas inspired everything from comic books and graphic novels to sculptures and soundtracks. This new edition of Necroscope uses the author's preferred text and includes a special introduction by Brian Lumley, telling how the Necroscope saga came to be. It also includes chapter ornaments by Hugo-Award-Winning artist Bob Eggleton, long identified with Lumley's blood-sucking monsters. As a classic, Necroscope rightfully claims a place in the Orb trade paperback list, for scholars of the field and the dedicated Lumley collector. And also for all the people who have read more than one mass market copy of the book to tatters. Harry Keogh is the man who can talk to the dead, the man for whom every grave willingly gives up its secrets, the one man who knows how to travel effortlessly through time and space to destroy the vampires that threaten all humanity.

Un terrible demonio se encuentra en los Balcanes, en Rumania. Enterrado desde hace siglos en suelo consagrado, aprisionado por cadenas de plata y por la tierra, el vampiro urde siniestras conspiraciones. Boris Dragosani es utilizado por los servicios secretos rusos como el humano intermediario del vampiro. Dragosani está deseoso de explorar la insondable maldad del vampiro, y éste le enseñará las horribles artes de la nigromancia, otorgándole la capacidad de arrancar todos los secretos de la mente y el cuerpo de los muertos.
Nokkuð þekkt sería frá seinni hluta 20. aldar. Harry Keogh er gæddur þeim fágæta eiginleika að geta átt í samskiptum við látna, rætt við þá að fyrra bragði, lært af þeim og orðið stöðugt færari afburðamaður. Á sama tíma kemst annar einstaklingur undir áhrifavald fornar vampíru sem reynir að nýta sér hann til að komast aftur á kreik. Sagan gerist á tímum Kalda stríðsins þar sem öll stórveldin búa yfir deildum sem reyna stöðugt að nýta sér eiginleika dulspekinnar og herja á hvert annað. Nokkuð sérstök skýring á orsökum vampírisma sem er nýstárleg og framhaldsbækurnar vinna frekar út frá henni. ( )
