Vampire Hunter D Volume 1 by Hideyuki Kikuchi
4.0
I really enjoyed the setting and the lore of this one.
Nuclear holocaust leads to the mutation of any creatures living on the surface and the remaining surviving humans to have to rebuild society/cities and technology. Enter vampires who become nobility and are able usher in a new technologically advanced era only to be overthrown by humans. In present, they live on the outskirts of human society on the verge of extinction and terrorizing human locals. The one for this book is like western with vampires and lasers. What could go wrong?
Mostly the women characters. The women are strong and cool but never as strong as any man. They all need to be rescued or are under a man’s spell.
The story was interesting enough—lots of double crosses, morally grey characters. It ends as you think it might but the journey to get there isn’t always predictable. Lots of cool creatures/characters. The writing I enjoyed overall.
This graphic audio book was also well done. It took a minute to get used to the narrator’s voice though and sometimes it was hard for me to understand. I think I’m just not used to his voice.
A good time but I just wish the women would have been better done. Likely a product of its time.
