Vampire Hunter D Volume 13: Twin-Shadowed Knight Parts 1 & 2 Paperback – 1 June 2014

by Hideyuki Kikuchi (Author)
When Vampire Hunter D entered the town of Sedoc it was in search of answers to the meaning of a dying vampire's last words- "Find Muma." But when he meets Mia, the daughter of the local fortuneteller, he learns the mists emanating from a smoking crater on the outskirts of Sedoc have reanimated thousands of corpses, compelling them to crawl from their graves and hurl themselves into the smoking chasm. When D goes to investigate, he finds himself split in two- a second Vampire Hunter D, full of passion and lust and hunger for the company of women, is born!

* Features eleven black-and-white line illustrations by Yoshitaka Amano.

"Richly descriptive, filled with bone crushing action and horror aplenty, this is one wild ride down the highway to Hell." - Active Anime

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Comedic Surprise
    Reviewed in the United States on 7 August 2011

    I have enjoyed all the Vampire Hunter D books with varying degrees of appreciation. This one, though, is my favourite! The book starts out pretty much like usual: D is going some place and has something to do. As soon as the second D is introduced, the story takes a whole new life! The second D, as a polar opposite to the D that we know, is by nature a comedic surprise. However, the true D's reactions to his other self are what really make this book a comedy. It's not side-splitting humour by any means, though I did laugh out loud while reading a time or two. It's more the kind of humour that hits you after you stop reading and finally process exactly what just happened. Absurd, bizarre. I've used both terms before. Even Kikuchi admits that the characters and story went places that he did not originally intend.

    Nuovo romanzo della serie Vampire Hunter D. L'autore mantiene il suo stile e continua ad icollare il lettore alla sedia (certo si può sempre leggere in piedi...) pur senza introdurre novità di rilievo. Comunque molto godibile. Per la lettura è necessaria una conoscenza media della lingua inglese.

    Similar in style to Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Vampire Hunter D Is great!
    Reviewed in the United States on 15 February 2014

    I love this series. Whenever I read works I know have been translated to English intend to be a harsh critic. But Kevin Leahy has done an excellent job and I keep forgetting it was originally in Japanese. If there is one complaint I have for this series it is the lack of development for D's character. But that is also a great aspect of this series. D is so bad ass he doesn't need to change. You learn tiny bits about his past through each novel. I am anticipating more about what I learn of D's past than what the next adventure will be. This is one series I am in for the long haul.
