Necroscope Fever

Its Robert Ludlum meets Anne Rice, or Micheal Crichton meets Laurell Hamilton. But really, Brian Lumley wrote his Necroscope series back in the 80s. Hell, I wasn't even born yet when he wrote his first Necroscope series.

Here is book two of his Necroscope series. It tells about the origin of Thibor Ferency, the vampire who lured Boris Dragosani in book 1. If we have read the 1st book we know that both has died and that our hero, Harry Keogh (whats with the name Harry anyway? There is Harry Potter, Harry Dresdan o.0).

In this book, we also found out that aside from Dragosani, Thibor manage to place a part of his self to a certain baby. It goes like this, one night a couple came tumbling down his hills. Man died for Thibor has drank his blood through his wounds. The girl survive but Thibor grope her with his vampire tentacles.(talk about tentacle hentai lol) But this book ain't one of those porny paranormal books i usually read.

Anyway, while the 1st book is like Russian E-branch vs. British E-branch, this time the two heads of both organization works together in able to annihilate the vampire horde. Well at least what remains of it. In Lumley's Necroscope series, his vampires are not like Rice nor Hamilton's vampires. His vampires has tentacles and parasitic. The way his vampires pro-create is to plant a part of themselves into their victim and slowly that part will grow inside them and become one of the human. The human is called the host. The vampire part will consume the human mind thus creating one mind. But for Wampyre, they can only make a true wampyre once in their life time. They produce a seed that they plant into their chosen human host to be their son or daughter. Also, they are like starfishes that when you cut them up, the pieces will grow into something else until they can find a host. (talk about go forth and mulitply).

But all well that ends well, they manage to destroy both Thibor's remains in his graveyard by blasting the crucified hills. That is how the wampyre could be killed. A stake through the heart, Cut of its head and burn everything down to crisp.
