It's been a long time since a book made me care so much about the characters that I was actually worrying about their fate and that goes doubly when a book makes you worry about an alien slug-like creature! Well that's what this book did. Not only does it have a fantastic plot and great characters but it makes you feel stuff too. I actually got misty eyed at the end! And I didn't want it to end, either!

This book sort of restarts the necroscope series with a story about a new character named Scott. Scott is an ordinary person more or less; nothing unusual in his life except for the fact his wife has died some months ago under somewhat suspicious circumstances. Then strange stuff starts happening to him..and these weird people from E-Branch are looking at him..but Scott doesn't believe in the supernatural. And he's certainly not hearing voices, is he? Well maybe he is.

I really loved this story and going on the long, hard journey with Scott. He faces many problems, both of a physical nature (as in many battles) but also of an emotional nature as he struggles to find self confidence in himself. That second one is actually much harder and it takes a lot of bravery. I also grew to love Shania, her tiny Khiff and the Wolf that made up their group of three. I also could relate very well to Scott's great lack of belief, because it would be very hard to believe that something like the Mobius Continium is real! Or to face that awful math (because I'm not good at math)! It requires a great leap of faith. It's also about grief, revenge and believing in things you cannot see.

And the bad guys in here...truly grotesque and rotten to the core! The things they do are awful for words. Truly horrendous! They make other famous movie villians look like saints.

The story has plenty of action, fights, great descriptions of both locations and things...and a really great plot. I was close to the end and the situation was so dire I just didn't see how they could get out of it. So a powerful climax too! And the fate of the entire world is at stake too. Because those Mordri Three are evil with a capital E!

This story is not about vampires. Just so you know. It's about the Shing't. And the awful Mordri Three. But you still have a Necroscope.

I plan on reading the entire series. If you are new to Necroscope this book works very well as a stand alone and can be read on it's own. It basically explains many of the things as Scott is learning it from scratch. So you could start with this one and then start reading the series from the beginning, with the first book Necroscope.
