finished......next please

[skinters]

just finished deadspawn,and after reading from the first in the series i feel exhausted,a lot like watching the lord of the rings trilogy, just when you think its finished theres a hell of a lot more to go grin.gif

feel a bit sad having finished the original series,i mean i know it can all be read again, but also know that it will never have the same impact of when you read it all for the first time, well for me any how .

was harry rescued by god at the end ?.....was shaitan the fallen actually the real satan cast down by god ?.......there seemed a strong reference to it .anyways not looking for answers there jus thinking out loud .

so blood brothers next , and i hope i can get a hold all the rest .Are they still all in print ? bloody better be ;)

[Lupa the Ancient]

The only one out of print in Britain is Lost Years vol 1 .... but you should be able to get an American edition on the internet.

Happy Reading .....!

the best is yet to come

Wait till you get to the Vampire World Trilogy, that really is the stuff of legends.

[skinters]

kenny to be honest ive never been the book worm type. The only other author ive ever followed was james herbert.I read necroscope about 3 years ago ,left it then returned to it again for some (obvious) reason, then after reading WAMPHYRI! i was hooked good and proper.

[skinters]

just bought blood brothers,did TOR take over the publishing ? not very good quality .

i seen a copy of blood brothers in another book store where i live but it was a huge volume ..was blood brothers 1+2 published into 1 volume ?

[Helmet Head]

There is only one blood brothers Skints, my copy is a huge black one with cool skulls on it...

[skinters]

right ,ive got the cover with the skull aerie ...so is that the u.s version and you have the u.k one ?

the copy i have of blood brothers looks kinda out of place next to the others in my collection ....anyways no big deal

Yep, you've got the US Blood Bros.

[skinters]

yeah thought so ...its strange id never given it a second thought of wanting to keep with the u.k covers ,until i bought this TOR one coz it looks out of place with the others in my humble lumley collection of five ha haaaaa

anyways TOR has gone back and im searching for blood brothers u.k style .

yo thx N8 for that ....man i was so eager to get started on blood brothers that i didnt think of different editions ,just seen blood brothers volume 1 and jus thought TOR had taken over publishing lumley ...nothng aganst TOR but jus wanted to keep em the same.now i know what the fuss is all about concerning u.k and u.s covers.

yeah i guessed the best is still to come,as theres not many writers who begin such a fantastic story,and then continue it into a massive saga while still keeping things fresh and moving forward and without going over the same old ground.

Skinters, don't be too sad that you'll never read Necroscope for the first time again, I actually enjoyed it as much if not more the second, and third time and so on!

I found bits that I'd overlooked the first time, clues that I'd missed and the anticipation of knowing when you're getting to a really good bit is fantastic, and as everyone else has said, it really isn't over yet! The Vampire World books really are amazing. Enjoy!

[Lord NioNio]

I must of reread the Necroscope Saga from Book 1 to Book 13 about 5 times now.. Everytime I reread it i also find bits and pieces I missed from the other times.. Personally Ebranch 3 - Avengers the very last chapter of the very last book simply blew my mind away and I would LOVE to see Mr Lumley follow up on that with another trilogy based off that chapter alone..

[kenny]

Say no more Lord NioNio? We don't want to spoil it for the others that have still to read the complete Necroscope series.

(Happy reading skinters)

[Lord NioNio]

Of course I would never say anything more.. But it does kind of give you a motive to finish off the rest of the series so you can get to that part.. LoL

[Red Willow]

i'm re-reading the books again and it's amazing how much you can forget so if you have a sieve-like head like me it can be a bit like re-discovering it!! Trying not to grab Avenger's to remind myself of the bit you're talking about as i'm still in Vampire World.
