| Harry Keogh is a "necroscope" who can communicate with the dead. So, when omens suggest that the Möbius strip and space-time are going to be relevant to his plans in the near future, he goes straight to the expert and starts a conversation with August Ferdinand Möbius himself. Möbius, it seems, has been occupying his time since dying by doing calculations and visiting distant astronomical locations, but was able to offer his assistance in defeating an evil Romanian vampire in this unusual horror tale that Shane Griffo was kind enough to point out to me.
In later novels in the series, Keogh continues to travel using a higher dimensional technique he learned from Möbius and math makes some more appearances. In Necroscope V, for example, he communicates with the spirit of Pythagoras. And, there is a little bit of math in the author's Vampire World series as well. |

Where are the new works of mathematical fiction?: As you can see from this chronological listing, this database includes many works of mathematical fiction for each year from 1990 to 2025. Strangely, only two are listed for 2026, so far. Either less mathematical fiction is being published than in previous years or I'm just having more trouble finding it. If you know of any works of fiction that should be added to this list, especially recently published ones, please let me know. (Keep in mind that I do not include self-published works or children's fiction that just covers elementary mathematical concepts.) Thanks!
