The Necroscope series is one of the many reasons. ( ) This series just keeps getting better and better! Henry continues looking for his son. We travel to the Wamphri! homeworld. I loved the new characters Jaz and Zek as well as Lady Karen. The espionage and Cold War Russia continued to be great plots. This book does a lot of explaining for us about the Wamphyri!. Where they come from, their biology, etc., things get pretty deep. The whole story is incredibly intelligent science fiction and is the best vampire story I've read. This is the last of the reprints now I have to seek out the out-of-print editions of further books because I am so going to continue! La invasión de la Tierra por un ejército de seres mostruoso podrÃa producir espeluznantes reacciones. Sin embargo, serÃa muchÃsimo peor si esos invasores fueran además...¡vampiros! El nigromante Harry Keogh ha descubierto que los cientÃficos soviéticos han abierto, sin querer, una puerta hacia la peor de las pesadillas que puede imaginar la humanidad. La fuente de todas las leyendas negras se hace accesible para todo aquel que se atreva a cruzar la Puerta. Y también para algunos que no se atreven...,pero que no tienen más remedio que cruzarla. En las montañas de los Balcanes se alza el castillo de los Ferenczy, la fortaleza de los wamphyri. En él, Janos Ferenczy, vampiro y hechicero, ha despertado de su sueño de siglos. Para calmar sus deseos de sangre necesita seres humanos vivos y con sus terribles armas pretende aplastar a la indefensa humanidad que ha depositado en Harry Keogh sus esperanzas de salvación. Pero Harry ha perdido su facultad de comunicarse con los muertos y los numerosos gritos de advertencia procedentes del más allá caen en el vacÃo. The Source follows a nuclear accident that manages to blow a hole in between our reality and the homeworld (more accurately home universe, since Harry cannot Moebius his way there) of the Vampires. It's interesting watching this series progress from espionage mixed with urban fantasy and horror in the first book to a more historical urban fantasy (if that makes sense) to this one which veers a bit more into almost science fiction. We have a parallel universe, a tidally locked planet, and some really weird vampire biology. The world building around vampires continues to be the strongest part of this series (which is amusing, given that I find the Moebius Continuum and the various ESP powers to be among the weakest). I'm still not particularly a fan of Harry Keogh, but for most of the book he has a relatively minor role and I like a lot of the new characters in this book. Overall, I liked to see the extra worldbuilding, but the story was a bit weaker. Given the conclusion, I can guess where the next book is going to go nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
