Vampire Hunter D Series by Hideyuki Kikuchi ~ 12 MP3 AUDIOBOOK COLLECTION
Hideyuki Kikuchi Japanese author of immense domestic popularity, known initially abroad for the Anime adaptations of several of his novels, which formed a substantial component of the 1990s English-language image of Japanese animation as sexualized and violent pulp fiction. He shares a niche within Japanese sf with similarly prolific authors such as Yoshiki Tanaka, Masaki Yamada and Baku Yumemakura, although, unlike their work, his sagas of demonic conflict have largely eluded critical praise or attention – he remains unacknowledged, for example, at the Seiun Awards. It was only in the twenty-first century, amid demographic and technological shifts in American publishing, that his prose novels began appearing under the aegis of what were supposedly Manga publishers such as Digital Manga and Dark Horse, tardily affording overseas readers access to the source material of many of these video and film works.
