Vampire Hunter D: Tale of the Dead Town

Vampire Hunter D Series, Book 4

By: Hideyuki Kikuchi, Yoshitaka Amano - illustrator, Kevin Leahy - translator

Narrated by: Paul Boehmer

When a floating city becomes the target of a rash of vampire attacks, only one man can restore the oasis.

"The City," a tiny metropolis of a few hundred sheltered citizens floating serenely on a seemingly random course a few feet above the ground, has long been thought safe from the predation of marauding monsters. It seemed like a paradise.

A paradise shattered when an invasion of apparent vampires threatens the small haven. While the Vampire Hunter known only as "D" struggles to exterminate the scourge, a former denizen of the city, the attractive Raleigh Knight, and the brash John M. Brassalli Pluto VIII seize control of the city lurching it onto a new and deadly course. D's travails are just beginning.

Please get this narrator to do the dramatized version. I can’t take it anymore.

This was so well narrated, and I love the story, but the fact that he is not doing the dramatized version and I have to listen to that out of breath, guy is extremely ridiculous… I’m not the only one with the sentiment.

Tale of the Dead Town

4th book in the series. The story was fine, and performance was really good.
The first few books had just a small tid bit about D's past, and possible connection to the Ancient Ancestor.
This book didnt really give any new information on that subject. I guess its fine to have a stand alone story that has nothing to do with more of D's character development. But it just feels like its the same thing over and over, that hes gorgeous, has a powerful aura, and for some reason doesnt die from a steak to the heart anymore. It gets abit over played.

Otherwise, the story is very unique. I love the writing style, the world is really well developed and the plot is woven in really well.

I do seem to experience a very annoying aspect to these books, and that is the very short endings. Theres not much wrap up. Job done, bad guy killed, D rides away. Like, nothing else? Where is he going? What are his thoughts on what happened? Are the surviving characters ok? I am only a few books in, hopefully that changes.

Overall, I love the series and look forward to listening to the others

wonderful

I really enjoyed this series. the books have fun set ups and great characters. I will keep listening

ready for number 6 and 7

another amazing one. hopefully they release more in this series. Love this series so far.

Long convoluted story

Amazing job from the performers but the story was lack luster. Drawn out for no reason, worst book of the series so far.
