Just wondering if there is anyone out there in Ironworks Land that reads Brian Lumley? I've read his entire Necroscope series, and am currently reading Invaders, and have Defilers onhand.

Anyway, it's been a few years since I've read anything from him, as he seemed to slow down a bit from writing for a while there. Now he seems to be coming back with a vengeance So far I am not disappointed at all, his writing style is still excellent, his unique characters are excellent...I'm really enjoying reading his books lately

Cool! Write a book review for us when you finish Invaders, I'd like to find out your perspective on it. I haven't read any of his work myself.

He's a great writer. I never have been into horror books (except for Stephen King) until I started the Necroscope Series. I started because I couldn't find anything else to buy at K-mart once. Been hooked ever since. I thought he had quite writing though. I hit B-Dalton or Waldens tomorrow to check him out. Thanks for the tip. Oh, BTW, Good to hear from you again. It's been a while.
Have a nice night!

I have read some of his work, I have liked it sofar, mostly the Chutulu stories and tthe Coven of vampires. Have never started the necroscope since I have never found all books, and I want to have all books of a serie if I start to read and like what I read I swallow books and if I loose momentum it can take months before I open a book again..

So this new good then.. Hmm.. *whistling, money money money. whats so funny..*

Memnoch, I think you would like these books, hate to say it but they beat Anne Rice by a mile! I'll maybe do a review when I finish the Defilers, which won't be long LOL!

Sir Taliesin! Long time eh? Yes, definitely check out the bookstores (cough, KMart did you say? LOL). He is continuing the long series again!

Wolfgir - I understand, it is a bummer if you cannot find all the books in a series Especially Brian Lumley's Necroscope series, which has at least a good dozen! Hope you will someday be able to find a bookstore which actually has the entire series, they are pretty good.

mmm, wonder if I'll actually get this post off (trying Netscape)
