About this listen
Packed with hideous nightmares, walking corpses, last-minute escapes, blood-sucking ghouls, and even true love, Necroscope: Defilers will more than satisfy any Brian Lumley fan!
Jake Cutter is reluctantly learning how to be a Necroscope - how to use the Mobius continuum to travel instantaneously from place to place, how to talk to the dead - but dead humans don't like him much. It seems Jake's got a hitchhiker named Korath. Since Korath holds the key to the Mobius equations, Jake can't just kick him out....though he's certainly trying.
Jake's not sure he really wants to be a member of E-Branch, the super-secret, ESP-powered organization that's dedicated to eradicating the vampire infestation of Earth. To the freewheeling, passionate Jake, the E-Branchers seem a little stuffy and hidebound - except for the lovely Liz, whom Jake wants to get to know better, body and mind. But Liz is a telepath, and if Jake's not careful, she'll find out about Korath. And that will likely be the end of Jake Cutter.
In Australia, Jake helped E-Branch destroy the aerie of the mind-master, Nephtam Malinari - one of a trio of Great Vampires who came to Earth from the vampire world. Malinari escaped and went to ground with the hideously beautiful Lady Vavara. Vavara has taken over a holy monastery on a beautiful Greek island and turned the nuns into the most unholy creatures, with fearsome appetites for all things carnal.
Jake wants revenge against the Italian mobsters who killed the woman he loved and nearly killed him. As far as he's concerned, E-Branch can search for Malinari, Vavara, and the metamorphic Lord Szwart without him, until he's satisfied his own bloodlust. But, it seems vampire hunting is truly Jake's job now - the men he's trying to kill aren't men at all, but vampire spawn, hidden for two generations in human guise! To defeat them, Jake will need every weapon in a Necroscope's arsenal, including the power to pull all the unsleeping dead out of their moldering graves.

Story
Brian Lumley's Cthulhu Mythos writings began in the 1960s when he was included in new collections by August Derleth's Arkham House. While today, the author is probably better-known for his Necroscope and Psychomech series, he has continued with his Mythos stories for over 40 years. This volume spans that career, using Derleth's suggestion that the Mythos monsters could be viewed as "Elementals", and includes a new novella-length story.

The volcanic eruption that created the island of Surtsey in 1967 also revealed a long-hidden cache of documents that told the fantastic history of Theem'hdra as written by the sorcerer Teh Atht. Building on translations begun by the scholar Thelred Gustau—who vanished under mysterious, some say magical, circumstances—Brian Lumley brings the saga of the Primal Land to audiences of today. Here, the wizard Mylarkhrion—most powerful of the terrible magicians who walked the earth in those long-ago days—battles sorcerers jealous of his knowledge, power, and wealth.

This made my commute feel too short
I won't be able to do this title justice in my review. Felt myself wishing I had a few more minutes left on my drive, so I could finish the chapter. Wishing I could continue the book in the evenings at home, but knowing I'd be sad the next morning because I was finishing this audio book too fast. Joshua Saxton is a talent without limits; combined with my favorite Author of all time. Thanks to Brian Lumley and Mr. Saxton.

Glorious Narration
The necroscope series by Brian Lumley, as read by Joshua Saxon, is one of the most glorious audible books additions I have ever heard.
The e Branch adventures and everything that goes with within the necroscope realm is on full audible display here. Joshua's tones, inflections, narration, vocal characterization, are completely on point!
I have come to appreciate the tones of his voice while driving around the countryside of Ohio doing my job and listening to him narrate the wonderful works of Master Lumley.
As I have said on the forums, Joshua should be the only one narrating Brian's books from now until the end of time and the ones that have already been recorded by others need to be redone with Joshua's voice!
