5.0 out of 5 stars
D and Sleeping Beauty, May 8 2007
By John W. Leon "vmi_raven" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Hunter D Volume 5: The Stuff Of Dreams (Paperback)
An interesting twist to the saga of the dhampir, D. In this story we find D unable to get a good night's (or is day's?) rest. Not because he is hounded by demons and bounty hunters, his nights are restless because everytime he closes his eyes he experiances the same dream over and over again. And when he arrives in a village that has been at peace with vampires since who knows when, things get even more strange when he meets the girl in his dreams...asleep for the past 30 years from a vampire's "kiss."
As with the other D novels, we are plagued constantly about how beautiful the dhampir is, which gets old after the 2nd or 3rd novel. But unlike the previous 4 novels, D is placed in a situation unlike anything he has faced before. No matter how much he tries, someone or something will not let him leave the village. To say more will ruin the excellent story.
An excellent read. Recommended age of reader, 13. No sex, mild language, some horror violence, but nothing a teenager couldn't handle.

Another great book, Jan 9 2007
By Luella Peebles "Gothic Photographer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Hunter D Volume 5: The Stuff Of Dreams (Paperback)
Yet again another great book from Hideyuki Kikuchi. I have enjoyed all of this series so far, but the only thing I wish was that the translation was a little better. I really pretty good, it just sometimes the wording doesn't make sense at first. In the end you do get the jist of it. Great book, and if you liked the movies you should pick up the series.

Vampire Hunter D, Vol 5 The Stuff of Dreams: Book Reiew, Jan 17 2011

A wonderful read. In this volume of the Vampire Hunter D series you are again provided with further insight into the world of the Nobility, even to their dreams.
In this amazingly woven together tale of dreams within dreams, you are also given more insight into the mind of our hero D. As the unbelievably thick plot starts to unravel the characters find themselves facing philosophical and moral dilemmas that cant help but set your mind spinning.
LOVED IT!
