Edited by Brian Lumley and multiple Bram Stoker Award-winner Stanley Wiater, The Brian Lumley Companion is an indispensable guide to the life and works of Brian Lumley. In The Brian Lumley Companion, Lumley aficionados will find an overview of the author’s career; essays comparing Lumley and H.P. Lovecraft; a lengthy interview with Brian Lumley which delves into the heart of his relationships with the writers and editors who inspired him and the fans who support him; and analyses of Lumley’s short fiction and novels. An interview with Bob Eggleton gives insight into the development of his striking covers for the Necroscope series and other Lumley works. The Companion also includes complete listings of the first publications of each of Lumley’s novels, short fiction, and poetry. Major attractions are the detailed concordances that focus on individual novels and series, including the three Psychomech titles, the Dreamlands and Primal Lands series, and each volume in the Necroscope series.
targets die hard fans | Customer Rating: | This work obviously targets die hard fans of the author of the Necroscope tales. The BRIAN LUMLEY COMPANION is a wonderful addition that provides insight into the author and his works from various sources. Besides the obvious personal background, essays that compare Mr. Lumley to H. P. Lovecraft, analysis of the novels and shorts, and an interview with the author combine to add depth to understanding the author's works. The fascinating analysis and publication history of the Psychomech, Dreamlands, Primal Lands, and Necroscope series speak loudly how much Mr. Lumley has contributed to expanding the horror genre. Living and undead readers of Mr. Lumley will appreciate this intelligent analysis yet entertaining look at the writer and his literary résumé
Harriet Klausner | Product Description a tad misleading | Customer Rating: | | I'm a big fan of the necroscope books so i was really looking forward to this book as a reference. However, the three short stories included are less than 50 words each, there are no bookcover art reproductions like the dust jacket states (most of the pics inside are of brian, his wife and people i have no idea of who they are, much less care). The concordances are actually just listings of every character and place in the books. Book summaries would have been a nice addition. They should have taken a page from the companion that they did for anne rice's vampire chronicles. However, I am a necroscope addict and am glad to own it. Just dont expect too much. |
