i never saw the hardcovers!!!! olny in pics. i have the first 4 in soft cover with the orginal covers, they reprinted them with newer covers that look stupid. im still wating on getting the blood wars end of the epic and the ones after that! such a good epic. i love star side sun side!!!!!!!!

I read the entire necroscope series and realy enjoyed them, you wont get any more good vampire novels now though, the twilight sagas has put and end to good vampire stories

i the novel series of 30 days of night is pretty burtal. should check those out too!!! not as indept or orginal as necroscope but still has its moments. i refuse to even touch a twilight novel or movie. ruinied it totaly

I thoroughly enjoyed his Necroscope series a few years back, good stuff !

i gotta get the blood wars next i love star side sun side such a cool effin concept for the vamp.

If your looking for the series in hardcover i found most of mine at amazon. used and in great condition. I never paid retail and on book 4 paid 50 cents. also pretty decent pickings on ebay but Caveat emptor .

The first edition of The Necroscope by Brian Lumley, is in paperback, the art work on the cover was so bad that the book was redone with the more familiar Skull with the time line's coming from it. The very first print has a Yellow spine with Necroscope in Red print. So rare that i cant even find a picture of the front cover on the web.
Maybe i should take a picture of my original 1986 unread, signed 1st edition and upload it too Wikipedia or were ? i dont know.
This is one of my favorite book's and i purchased my copy from Mrs Lumley, and would take a lot to get me too part from it if atoll. Not often you get the chance to own a first edition signed by the author and also unread

I want it to become a movie trilogy before I die! I thought it was in the works, but I haven't heard anything on it. When asked what my fav book is, oh it's the whole Necroscope series, with The Hobbit a distant second.
