Romantic? Hardly.

I first found out about the Necroscope series from a friend of mine. He knew I had a keen interest in vampires, so he prodded me into reading at least the first book. I must say, I was not disappointed.

Having read many works featuring vampires, both fiction and non, I was pretty well versed in the makings of your typical legend. However, the ideas Mr. Lumley presents in his books are some of the most original I have seen, going off the well beaten path of your typical Dracula and Lestat like characters. Unlike the romantic nature of those just mentioned, the vampires in this book are more of the violent variety. While beautiful and enticing, these are not the kind of vampires you would want to be alone with, nor would you even want to meet them.

It is a refreshing look into the darker nature of these beings. Forget all of your romantic notions before reading. This book is not for the squeamish or the faint of heart. - an Amazon customer review
