"Since reading Lumley's "Necroscope" series, I know that vampires
really do exist!"-H. R. Giger
"Lumley excels at depicting heroes larger than life and horrors
worse than death."--"Publishers Weekly"
"Lumley is obviously very bright, articulate, and in possession of
an incredibly wild imagination."--"Rapport"
"Lumley uses language deftly to conjure his alien
universe."--"Publishers Weekly"
"An accomplished wordsmith, Lumley wields a pen with the deft skill
of a surgeon, drawing just enough blood to titillate without
offending his readers."--The Phoenix Gazette
"Lumley's strength is in his jovial voice, a diction that dominates
the narrative. Lumley's love of his pulp-horror subjects is
gleefully apparent. He revels in every telling detail, in
stories-within-stories and convoluted histories."--"San Francisco
Chronicle"
"Whether humorous or atmospheric and chilling, Lumley's tales are
delightful."--"Booklist"
"For fans of Brian Lumley and anyone who enjoys Lovecraft. Well
written, displaying Lumley's skill at world building."--"Midwest
Book Review" on "Harry Keogh: Necroscope and Other Weird
Heroes"
"A faithful tribute by veteran fantasist Lumley to horror author
H.P. Lovecraft. A good addition to most libraries' horror
collections and a title with special appeal to fans of the Cthulhu
mythos."--"Library Journal "on "Beneath the Moors and Darker
Places"
"Nightmarish in a manner obviously inspired by Lovecraft . . . long
hard to find in the US. Lumley succeeds at spine-chilling
creepiness. Juicy indeed-worthy additions to the mythos and the
horror genre alike."--"Booklist" on "ochBeneath the Moors and
Darker Places"
