A new omnibus collecting volumes twenty-five, twenty-six, and twenty-seven of the Vampire Hunter D horror novel series!

The hunt continues in the bizarre far future of 12,090 A.D, where the immortal vampire lords who were the only winners of mankind’s nuclear war still oppress the human survivors who have pushed the blood-drinking fiends back to the lawless Frontier. Yet humanity too remains as quick as ever to prey upon itself, and where the law can’t bring safety or justice, the crescent blade of D will—assuming you meet the half-vampire wanderer’s price!


Vampire Hunter D Omnibus Book Nine collects three different complete novels. Everyone knows vampires fear running water—so how did the immortal Nobility come to reside on Undead Island, and what is the secret of the fog they create that lures in human fisherfolk to be their slaves? Then, D crosses the route of the Bedeviled Stagecoach, transporting a valuable prisoner—Dorleac, mortal page of the mighty Duke Sinistre. The prisoner is to be transported to the Capital to learn his vampire lord’s secrets, but Sinistre has no intention of letting the stagecoach finish its journey! Nightmare Village is the unwilling destination of a band of travelers from an inn, spared by seeming chance from a bizarre landslide to find shelter in an ancient town said to once be the site of genetic experiments by the Sacred Ancestor. Can D save them—or will his very presence trigger their doom…?

The Vampire Hunter D Omnibus Book Eight collects volumes 25, 26, and 27 in author Hideyuki Kikuchi’s adventure horror series: Undead Island, Bedeviled Stagecoach, and Nightmare Village. Illustrated by Final Fantasy artist Yoshitaka Amano, the legend of D endures!
