Just a Note... I'm a bit disappointed at sales on the Vasagi figures. I personally don't make a penny on these fantastic sculptures, but Paul Brown and Co. can't hope to continue the line without decent sales. So it's down to you guys. If you want to see more of the Starside crew -- Canker, Gorvi, Devetaki, etc. -- you'll need to support Paul on this first venture. Yes, they're expensive, but just like the earlier figures they're going to go up in value with the years. Just like good books, they're a hedge against inflation. Brian bl:sl

Dillon and David Rigby, if you haven't moved on to the Great Majority, do please let me know where you are, okay? I don't want these books disappearing into the Möbius Continuum. Brian bl:sl

Fellow Lumlians... Please read and accept the notice below. It is a rather important one and on two occasions it has wasted four hours of our time. IMPORTANT NOTICE In light of recent ocurrences ... PLEASE DO NOT send any unsolicited jpegs or document files without prior consent from Brian. Under normal circumstances these take too long to download, especially if you send a super-sized jpeg without prior knowledge. My server will only allow so much information per file and it will block downloading of all of our other mail as well. I'll be forced to go to a special website to see what's blocking things. I will automatically delete these files without even loo…

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS, WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS, WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS, AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR... GOOD TIDINGS WE BRING TO YOU AND YOUR KIN, WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR! Merry Christmas to everyone and a very Happy Prosperous 2003!

What a surprise! Two of these arrived today with the newest installment of the Necroscope series of books from Festa-Verlag. It sounds wonderful, it's even got music. Brian says their translation is perfect. Of course, I only understand the English words but it sounds good to me! Well worth having if you are a serious collector. Necroscope CD boxed set ... Das Erwachen (“The Awakening”) ... seven CDs, unabridged 7 hours and 45 minutes ... read by Joachim Kerzel (who does Jack Nicholson’s voice over in the American films showing in Germany) ... LPL records http://www.LPL.de ISBN 3-935882-07-6. If you go to the website they have other downloads there and you ca…

Fellow Lumlians... With December 2 closing in fast. Now is the time to post your birthday greeting. I'll be pulling this of for him in the morning of the 2nd. So that gives everyone 8+ days. Cheers, Silky [ December 02, 2002, 01:10 PM: Message edited by: Silky ]

We just couldn't resist ... despite that we got the pre-production Vasagi at 2K2 ... Brian and I decided we *had* to have two of the limited edition. We received them today and they are absolutely, hideously beautiful. They are still available and they'd make a nice Christmas prezzie. If anyone else who bought one would care to post there response here ... be my guest...

On the COMPANION: I've yet to receive my standard editions. (Obviously I couldn't bring any back from the USA -- my bags weighed a ton without them!) Also, the signature sheets are currently being signed by Bob Eggleton, so the limited will be some time yet. On VASAGI: For those of you who have already purchased these beautiful/hideous busts of Vasagi the Suck: Paul Brown will commence postal delivery early next week (18th November). As Always-- Brian bl:sl

THE VASAGI SCULPTURES When Paul Brown showed me the first finished busts at KeoghCon Two ... I could scarcely believe my eyes! These are just wonderful (hideous but wonderful) things. But I could readily believe the price because I knew what those Classic Plastics figurines -- no longer available -- in the USA had cost. (Yes, and I know what they cost now, on the dealer's markets!) It's our intention, Paul's and mine, to continue this line beyond Vasagi the Suck. We'd also like to offer Canker Canison, Devetaki Skullguise, Gorvi the Guile, etc., to our unsuspecting, not-quite-innocent public. But of course that's going to depend on sales of Vasagi. Well, inter…

In addition to being at the World Fantasy Convention in Minneapolis, Brian will be doing a signing off site. Here is the pertinent information. Date: Thursday October 31 Time: 7:00 PM Place: DreamHaven Books 912 West Lake Street Minneapolis, MN 55408 612-823-6161 Stanley Wiater will also be there along with copies of the Brian Lumley Companion. And ... ShadoeWolfe will be there as well.
