The series is divided into two parts: Rage Against the Moons and Reborn on Mars. This book contains four stories. Flight Night( episode 1) After completing an assignmentin Londonium, Father Abel Nightroad is returning to Rome aboard the Abionese airship Tristan. It is highjacked by Count Alfredo and it is up to Abel to regain control of the ship. Witch Hunt(anine episode 2) A genetically altered girl, who has the power of touch telepathy is wanted by the Rosenkruetz Order and the Vatican. Her power to scramble and alter memories causes people to slaughter each otehr and themsealves. She finds her only friend is Father Abel Nightroad. From the Empire (anime episode 7) Endre, a Methuselah serial killer exiled from the Empire contiues his murderous ways in Venice.Allied with the Rosenkruetz Order he helps them set in motion a plan to start a war between the Methuselah Empire and the Vatican. Temporarily partnered with Astoroche, Duchess of Odessa, Abel Nightroad works to preserve the current peace.Sword Dancer(aninem Episode 6) Father Hugue, another Vatican AX agent investigates the mass murder of the priests and nuns of Oude Kerk. The Vaitcan thinks it is the work of the local vampire lord. The vampire lord is just as in the dark as the Vatican. Father Hugue has his own personal agenda. The key to everything is the surviving nun Sister Agnes. The anime keeps the 's ligher comic tone. The graphic novel is a darker, more interesting rendition of Trinity Blood. The graphic novel has strong sense of horror. Characters who are annoying in the anime, are cold-blooded,insane killers. Abel, Tres, and Caterina are stronger, darker characters than in the anime. In many ways this book is a Cold War intrigue book, excep this cold war is set in a post-apocolyptic 31st century.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

It's a shame the company went out of business without publishing / translating the final two books.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Follows and expands on the animeBy M. SprayKeeping in mind that the copy I recieved was a first edition, pre-release, review copy, this book appeared to be pretty much the same story as the anime, but with more details. Some of the characters are a little different than the anime...some ages are different, and some appearances, though the personalities are pretty much identical.

In the distant future, set in a post-apocalyptic world that has been destroyed by Armageddon, the war between and vampires rages on, playing out in a power struggle between two factions: the Vatican and the New Empire. A secret organization called Rosenkreuz Orden, a group of vampire extremists, manipulates the two factions, pitting them against one another to ensure the war escalates. A Vatican special ops group called AX, led by Cardinal Caterina, must use everything they can--even a vampire who preys on the blood of other vampires--to protect the peace effort.

From School Library JournalGrade 9 UpIn a postapocalyptic Europe, the Vatican creates a crack AX squad to combat the growing New Human Empire, an entire country of vampiresor, as they call themselves, Methuselahs. The affable, bumbling Father Abel Nightroad is one of the AX agents. He fights bloodsucking dukes, rescues genetic witches, and protects the preteen pope from an assassination attempt. This novel jump-started the manga and anime of the same title, and the sheer number of ideas it thrusts at readers is intriguing, but the follow-through is haphazard at best. Gender segregation, lost technology, and international affairs are all teased at, but ultimately fall by the wayside as buckets of blood and mass decapitations become the focus of the action. But most damning is that the plots and circumstances don't pass the logic test of making consistent sense. A notable example happens when an android executioner spares the life of one person because he's out of ammunition, only to reload and execute a different threat only seconds later. The dialogue is littered with bizarre idioms that jolt readers out of the incomplete world-building, and the sporadic black-and-white illustrations do little to solidify the atmosphere or provide key visuals for the action.Benjamin Russell, Belmont High School, NH Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
