12,090 A.D.

It is a dark time for the world. Humanity is just crawling out from under 300 years of domination by the race of vampires known as the Nobility. The war against the vampires has taken its toll; cities lie in ruin, the countryside is fragmented into small villages and fiefdoms that still struggle against nightly raids by the fallen vampires - and the remnants of their genetically manufactured demons and werewolves.

Every village wants a Hunter - one of the warriors who have pledged their laser guns and their swords to the eradication of the Nobility. But some Hunters are better than others, and some bring their own kind of danger with them….

Enter D - a lone, mysterious vampire hunter, sought out by the desperate Doris Lang. Bitten by the vampire lord Count Lee, Doris is destined to her unholy fate.... Can D deliver her from her curse and bring her to salvation, or will she forever be part of the unholy dead?

awesome

I can't wait to to listen to volume 2 thank you entertaining me .

better than the manga maybe

what I really enjoyed was that not only was this accurate to the manga but it was also done in a high quality way which gave more detail than I remember ...or things I just didn't pick up on through subtext

Like the anime and then some

I always wanted to read the original novels but these dramatize adaptations are pretty awesome. The sound effects helps with visualizations. Looks like I’m gonna build my Vampire Hunter D library

Amazing

I almost didn’t get this book because I had read some lame reviews but I’m so glad I bought it. Voice acting and sound effects were amazing! Voice for vampire Hunter do you sound like one of my favorite famous anime voice actors. Great performance from all of the characters just bought vol. 3 demon death chase because I like this one so much! Bravo

old but still good.

I've been a big fan of vampire Hunter d since I was a kid when I watched the first animated film back on the very first year of the Sci-Fi channel back in there early 90s heard of the books that it came from never actually had a chance to find one but then I remembered and I checked and it happened to be on audible and I'm surprised how much different the short animated film could have been and I think it would have told a better story too but it was good for where the time and the book was very well written the narration and the actors voicing the characters did an amazing job thank you so much

Pretty good.

Narrator sounded like he had a stuffy nose, or slightly out of breathe. Everyone else's performance was great. Good story.

Excellent Interpretation of a Classic Japanese Property

This classic story is wonderfully recorded with full cast and sound design that did a brilliant job putting you in the middle of the action. While I don’t always love the writing style, it is easily forgiven for how wonderful the core story, dialog, and production of this is.

Reminds me of the radio shows like the Lone Ranger

Vampire Hunter D naturally has a Western vibe to it, and D at least for me fits into the same archetype as the Lone Ranger. So having a graphic audio that captures the same feeling as the original Lone Ranger radio shows is really cool. The story for a first book is basic, but enjoyable and does a good job of setting up the series. The cast is fantastic and do a great job of delivering their lines.

Always been a fan of "D" the hunter....

The book gives much background to the movies, essential in my opinion! Fascinating, intriguing but most of all revealing!

first book I got on this app

The narration and voice acting is amazing and keeps you in the moment, and perfect way to enjoy a grimdark classic.
