I haven't finished the entire series yet, just finished The Last Aerie, and I went looking online for the other ones when I stumbled across this:
http://www.festa-verlag.de/Necroscope/Nestors-Rache::153.html
If you can't read German, the synopsis says "Lord Nestor of the Wamphyri is the new Necroscope. Owing to the inheritance of its legendary father Harry Keogh he attains power, wealth, highest desire - everything that is entitled to a Vampirfuersten on Starside. But with frightening it must state that one is not inaugurated unpunished into the secrets of the dead ones..." Is this a totally different book for Germany? Or did the author just make a mistake?

The German editions have split the existing novels down into shorter novelettes, usually 2 or 3 to each UK/US edition.

So where the number of the book you've listed is 17 in terms of the usual series it is somewhere between books 6 and 8 (inclusive).

Hope this helps...

PS: the covers of the German editions are fantastic!

Certainly right about that cover. Awesome stuff... Oh, there's a thought...

AH! Thank you very much for the info.

P.S. The picture on the cover is kinda what I pictured Zahar Lichsthrall to look like.
