Publisher's note

A novelization of a Japanese anime classic finds humans locked in a struggle for survival against vampires as civilization collapses and vampire slayers become powerful individuals within a new feudal social structure.

Annotation

Translated from the Japanese, VAMPIRE HUNTER D is a heady goulash of science fiction, Western, and melodramatic gothic horror. The first in a series, the book was adapted into an immensely popular anime in 1985. In the year 12,090 AD, humans scratch a hard living out of the Frontier by day and huddle inside at night, hiding from the vampires and the monstrous creatures the vampires have loosed upon the world. A powerful vampire lord, Count Magnus Lee, has selected the human girl Doris Lang as his bride, an honor that Doris would prefer to reject. To protect herself from the predatory count, she hires the itinerant, mysterious Vampire Hunter D. An apparent youth of incredible beauty, D is in fact a dhampir, a human/vampire hybrid devoted to protecting the humans who fear and despise him, while desperately resisting the call of his blood-starved vampire half. The book includes eight gorgeous black-and-white ink illustrations by Yoshitaka Amano, who served as the designer for the animated films VAMPIRE HUNTER D and VAMPIRE HUNTER D: BLOODLUST.
