The Last Aerie (1994) - Plot & Excerpts

Well, it's a sad day.After seven outings with Lumley's one-of-a-kind vampires, I'm afraid this is where it ends for me.The Last Aerie is pretty much a setup for the last in the Vampire World trilogy, where a war between our world and theirs seems inevitable. Sadly, I've ceased to care, given that this setup spanned over 700 pages. Not to say I didn't enjoy the time spent this time, but there was something missing. I felt a complete detachment from the horrors of the aeries, and their victims/inhabitants. There's just something blase about the world as a whole now. Perhaps I've been desensitized or maybe Lumley just isn't presenting misery as well as before. Or, more likely, the saga is simply getting old with me.Whatever the reason, I feel this has gone on long enough. But oh, the vivid memories that have been left with me from the earlier Necroscope books; the novelty of these Wamphyri, Harry's early conversations with the dead, Ferenzcy's story. Man, what a trip. Thanks, Brian, it's been one of a kind. Really, thanks man.

This trilogy is on my list of favorite things EVER! I'm completely biased, of course. I've read the entire Necrscope series every other year for years now, but The Blood Wars trilogy often gets 're-read once or even twice a year. I've yet to get sick and tired of reading it. The Vampires, the Szgany, the Thyre and of course Nathan, THE Necroscope. Now onto the next book. Yep, I can't recommend this story and the trilogy, and the author Brian Lumley, highly enough. This book is one of the best reads ever.

What do You think about The Last Aerie (1994)?

This book gets great reviews. Some of it felt rehashed. I get it, they're evil. I get it, the blood is the life yadda yadda yadda seventh book in I think I get it. Maybe I didn't get it though because this is held up highly by fans of the other books. Will I read the next few in the series? Probably because I've already purchased them. Am I looking as forward to blood wars as I once was the source? Nuh uh. How much time will I feel I've been robbed by the end of that book? Who knows because the future is a devious thing. (You'll notice in this review I used some sayings from the book in a very very corny and annoying way, much the same as I feel these sayings are bein used in the books at this point.)
