Publisher's summary

Resurgence, the second book in horror author Brian Lumley's best-selling Necroscope series, Necroscope: The Lost Years

Harry Keogh, the Necroscope, the man who can talk to the dead, and Earth's greatest vampire hunter, has been searching for his wife and infant son gone missing during Harry's war against the vampires. This obsession has left him open to subtle influence by an ancient vampire, Radu. Entombed in amber, trapped in undeath, Radu plans for his resurrection and plots the destruction of other vampires who might challenge his supremacy.

Thus, Radu's enemies are now Harry's - and Harry cannot properly defend himself. His powers - his deadspeak and his ability to transport himself through the Mobius Continuum - are locked away in the recesses of his vampire-clouded mind. But Harry is not without allies, living and dead.

E-Branch, the psychic spy organization, is worried about Harry. So is Harry's long-dead Ma, and the ancient philosopher and prophet Nostradamus, whose centuries-old quatrain make eerie sense in the modern world.

Right now, Harry Keogh doesn't even know he's the Necroscope. But Earth's teeming dead won't let him forget them for long - and won't let him forget that Radu and his vampire kind are humanity's deadliest enemies.

Great way to tie it all together!

I started reading Necroscope when I was about 15 and I finally got around to finishing the series. this is by far my favorite book of the whole series. Vampire monks and the Cosa Nostra! Lumley outdid himself with this one.

When a MASTER MASTERS his MASTERY

THE LOST YEARS, vol. 1 & 2, are some of the most intricate, multiplotted, and tightly woven stories I've ever had the pleasure of reading. Take EVERYTHING you love about the original Necroscope® series, and the Vampire World series and merge them into two incredible books that will leave fans fully enthralled for the rest of lives. (like they weren't already)

Joshua Saxon's vocal performance is as praiseworthy for his audio rendition, as Bob Eggleton's artwork is to Brian Lumley's book covers.

"The Lost Years" is truly Masterful Work!

Alot of setup, quick wrap up.

I have been an adamant fan of Necroscope series and Brian Lumley since high school and have gone out of my way to find and collect his novels. This is the first time I got to listen to the second half of this story. And as long as it was, it felt like a waste of time. (Spoilers ahead) The hypnotized Harry plot gets old and drug out way too much to the point that I yelled at the book at one point. Radu is built up so much only to be put down so fast in the end. And the final confrontations with the other vampires is solved in one chapter, no real face to face confrontation. Both clan threats are solved by just blowing them up. The father mutated vampire in the castle never makes an actual appearance, he's forever a voice that just blows up with everyone else. And everything again is erased at the end so again makes everything pointless as if it never needed to happen. I suggest reading the other books and skipping these.

The Audio Saga Continues

Master Lumley's Necroscope series never fails to entertain me after 30+ years of being a fan of his literature.

The complex depth of his words must be read to fully appreciate, but here, at the hands (or should I say vocal cords?) of Joshua Saxon, life is given to the words, depth is given to the characterizations, and you can sit back and enjoy all 23 hours of Joshua taking you on a journey through the ever expanding world of the Necroscope series.

The world of the dead and those who can influence the dead to do their bidding find a unique spot in the world. layer upon layer is peeled back in this now 17+ book saga and this just adds to the Tolkien-ness of that journey.

Joshua has the unique soft voice that makes you want to hear him read more and more, time fades and slips past you when he narrates with his distinctive inflections and you can hear the breath of life being given to each character.

The cadence of his pronunciation and enunciation is to me, exquisite! I have many audiobooks in my library and listen to Joshua's voice is all but spoiling me to other narrator's.

The only comparison I can give his voice is to that of a soft spoken Tim Curry-esque quality! Again, you want to hear him speak, you want to close your eyes and feel the life, or death, of each character as he speaks the words of my favorite living author who speaks and writes, so highly of the dead!

Big fan of The Necroscope series.

Harry Keogh is by far one of the most interesting characters ever created. Brian Lumley is up there with J.K. Rowland and GRRM in my opinion.
