Necroscope: The Lost Years Volume 1
Necroscope: The Lost Years Volume 1 is also known as Necroscope: The Lost Years (US edition).
BLOOD IS THICKER THAN TIME
As a young man, Harry Keogh discovered that he was a Necroscope – that he could talk to the dead and converse with the great minds from centuries past. Harry Keogh wrote novels, composed symphonies, and patented inventions – all creations of the dead men and women who were his friends. He even learned how to transport himself instantly to any place in the world.
His most horrifying discovery was that vampires stalked the earth, seeking human blood and human victims, and that they were a thousand times more terrible than anyone had ever imagined.
Joining forces with a super secret organization of people with psychic powers, Harry Keogh made it his life's work to battle the undead vampires and the evil they spawned, no matter where that journey might take him or what penalties he might have to pay.
In the heat of the war against the vampires, Harry's wife and infant son disappeared. For eight years Harry searched for his family, scouring the Earth for even a trace of his loved ones.
The story of those years has never been told – until now.
