Book Review: Vampire Hunter D Volume 06: Pilgrimage of the Sacred and the Profane - Hideyuki Kikuchi

 I don't know why I enjoy this series but I do. Unfortunately only twice I've managed to give a rating better than 3. This was not one of them. You've got D which is enigmatic as ever and he is travelling from one place to another while traversing a desert. Meanwhile they are joined by a old crone who is leading a young girl to her family after saving from some nobles. They are join by two mercenary brothers.

They've encountered several people along the way - all of them died.

With only 175 pages I think it felt longer like all other novels before it. The writing (the translating) at times felt a bit dense and as I said it felt longer novel. Since I don't read Japanese I don't know if it's the writing or the translator fault.

There are some information about D and what it means to be a Dhampir (half vampire, half human). I enjoyed that introduction. I will continue to read more novels from Vampire Hunter D. This don't detain me. If you have read the first five then you will like this one. Don't start here.
