About this audiobook
Around midnight, under a lonely streetlamp in a provincial town in Japan, lies a white woman, a blonde, alone, robbed of all four limbs yet undead. Indeed, a rumor's been circulating among the local girls that a vampire has come to their backwater, of all places.
Koyomi Araragi, who prefers to avoid having friends because they'd lower his "intensity as a human", is naturally skeptical. Yet it is to him that the bloodsucking demon, a concept "dated twice over", beckons on the first day of spring break as he makes his way home with a fresh loot of morally compromising periodicals.
Always disarmingly candid, often hilariously playful, and sometimes devastatingly moving, KIZUMONOGATARI: Wound Tale is the perfect gateway into the world of author NISIOISIN, the best-selling young novelist in Japan today. The prequel to BAKEMONOGATARI ("Monster Tale"), this is where the legendary MONOGATARI series, whose anime adaptations have enjoyed international popularity and critical acclaim, begins.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Well produced and has good voice acting. Clever story and dialogue. If you like anime, light novels, or urban fantasy this is worth checking out.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I was stuck in the middle of a boring book and was desperately craving something new and exciting! I'm SO glad I picked this. It wasn't like any other audiobook I've listened to. It had music in the background (not off putting in the slightest and went with the theme) and different voice actors. Everything put together just felt like I was watching an anime and made it so much easier to visualise. I'm definitely going to start listening to more books like this now :) it was funny, light hearted, easy to listen to and exciting, it kept me engaged at all times (my mind usually wanders whilst listening to audiobooks!) Great book, would highly recommend for any anime lover or just anyone looking for an excited light hearted read!
