Brian Lumley and his Necroscope Series

I started reading these as they came out and loved them.

I'm going back now and re-read the entire series. I was totally immersed in this series and loved the storyline and the writing. A Necroscope is someone who can communicate with the dead, but that only describes the surface of this incredible series. If you're a fan of vampires and a fan of pulp fiction writing, then I heartily recommend this series.

Here's a reading order, for those who are curious. (Note: This reading list differs from the publication order/list.)

Here's Brian Lumley's website and his list:

There's been an option for a film for these books for quite some time. If a film is ever released (and is a success), you'll find a feeding frenzy on these books.

I own almost all of them in First Edition Hardcover. The First three, from one dealer, sells for $600

The first and second volumes can go as high as $250 each.

The good news is that they are available as ebooks.

Does anyone else have fond memories of this series? Or bad memories?
