This take on the necromancer is based around the study of arcane mysteries and secrets, which may seem similar to the shadow power source, yet I feel stands apart from it since the necromancer isn't drawing his power directly from the Shadowfell but rather his studies and own willpower.

Actually in the phb it details the other power sources, check out the phb page 54

"Future power sources include elemental, ki, primal, psionic, and shadow."
