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!

Best book of the last few...,

This review is from: Vampire Hunter D, Vol. 13: Twin-Shadowed Knight, Parts 1 & 2 (Paperback)
Many of the books, lately, have not been very good. I thought that maybe Hideyuki Kikuchi might be running out of steam. But this book is brilliant. The idea of having two Ds! So many ways to deal with the subject of having two Ds. Where did they come from? Why did it take this long for them to come together? Why IS there two Ds?
Swift action, with lots of layers of mystery and dark secrets. Ghosts, vampires, and a mad monk. Oh my! Get it used or get it new. Just get it.

Most thirst quenching of the series yet!,

This review is from: Vampire Hunter D, Vol. 13: Twin-Shadowed Knight, Parts 1 & 2 (Paperback)
So reading into youd think its typical stuff and though it seems like we are getting somewhere with D's past you dont want to get your hopes up. However, this book delivers till the end. I dont want to spoil anything but it felt like we came close to the end of the series with this novel. So take your time with this one and soak up as much as you can. Enjoy!

A Comedic Surprise,

This review is from: Vampire Hunter D, Vol. 13: Twin-Shadowed Knight, Parts 1 & 2 (Paperback)
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.
