Vampire Hunter D
(Manga)
add
As of writing this I've read the first novel and am onto the second (I bought a three-volume omnibus, very nice quality from B&N) and it's wonderful. Incredible world that Hideyuki has created, and manages to write in a way where the reader feels "in the know" without excessive exposee or time-wasting loredumps. The story itself is a bit predictable in the way old westerns are, but the unique setting/history gives old tropes new life. Atmospheric, well-paced, and inspiring stylistically to me as a writer. Evokes images as vivid as though you were watching the movie. Highly recommend to anyone else who loves vampires, sci-fi,
