Enjoyed this as much as Lumely's first novel in the Necroscope series. However, I felt that the last sixty pages which includes the denouement and climax wasn't nearly as strong as the rest of the novel. I like the author's unique and intricate ontology for the Vamphyri. The vampires in the Necroscope series make Lestat, and Stoker's blood sucker one-dimensional in comparison. I'm eager to bite into part 3: The Source.
