Fiction
Vampire Hunter D by Hideyuki Kikuchi (translated by Kevin Leahy)
Chapter 1
Oh look, I’m starting another series! This is the first book in the Vampire Hunter D series (would you believe it!), which was adapted into the 1985 anime that I watched recently, which I’ve owned for a while but was inspired to finally put on because before that I’d picked up the whole series of novels as ebooks (well, the whole series that’s been translated into English — there’s an ever-growing pile that hasn’t been, unfortunately). It might seem daft to jump in like that, but… well, it’s the kind of thing I do. Besides, it was a dirt cheap bundle, and as ebooks they don’t take up any real space, so... But I do hope I like them. They seem like my kind of thing.
