Summary
Available now in one volume, two classic Necroscope novellas from Brian Lumley.
The Plague-Bearer
Harry Keogh is moving on. Though the search for his missing wife and child continues, his heart now lies in Edinburgh with Bonnie Jean - a beautiful Scottish werewolf whose friendly pack and flourishing pub have given him a place he can almost call home.
But from the rocky heights of Sicily, the diabolical Francezci brothers plot the wolf-pack's destruction; and down in the terrible Pit beneath Le Manse Madonie, an ancient evil schemes.
The vampires conspire. They reach a decision. They choose a vector. Mafia thug Mike Milazzo is no good to anyone, anytime, anywhere...which makes him perfect. Disposable.
The brothers infect him with a deadly poison - an engineered plague that even a werewolf could never survive - and they offer him a terrible bargain: successfully contaminate the wolf-pack, and receive the antidote. Fail, and die!
Mike has everything to lose. So does Harry Keogh. But the Necroscope lost everything once before, and he isn't about to do it again....
The Möbius Murders
Harry Keough, a.k.a. the Necroscope, has always considered himself a master of the Möbius Continuum - a dimension existing parallel to all space and time and his personal instantaneous gateway to anywhere in the multiverse. But this is hardly overweening conceit on Harry's part, for to his knowledge he is not unique; two other intelligences, with powers similar to his, do indeed exist. One such is the long-dead August Ferdinand Möbius himself, the German astronomer, mathematician, and discoverer of the eponymous Möbius Strip, which led him to explore, posthumously, his previously conjectural Continuum; and the other is Harry's son, who has not only inherited his father's mathematical skill, but also the metaphysical talent by means of which the Necroscope converses with dead people in their graves!
Picture Harry's confusion, then, on returning home via the Möbius Continuum from an adventure in Las Vegas, as he witnesses however briefly a flailing figure hurtling conscious but uncontrolled through the endless midnight of the Continuum. Who could this be - how can it be? - that a helpless, silently protesting other is rushing meteor-like across the Continuum's Stygian vault? Moreover, if he hasn't arrived here voluntarily, then what vile murderer has sent his victim on this monstrous journey to the end of life itself? For Harry is sure that this is neither his son's nor Professor Möbius' doing.
Who and where is he, this Möbius murderer? It is a mystery that only the Necroscope can ever hope to solve - but at what risk to his own life?
Who and where is he, this Mobius murderer? It is a mystery that only the Necroscope can ever hope to solve - but at what risk to his own life?

Need a new read
Good read but not as in-depth as previous stories and so much taken from earlier books

Brilliant
I thought I had reached the end of the necroscope stories after the touch. Only come across this gem. Not only two great stories but also brilliantly narrated .
I just do not want these stories to end.
