Castlevania : Curse of Darkness, Vol. 1

In a world where Count Dracula's demon army is waging war, a young man named Ted finds himself at the heart of a struggle among the count's most powerful generals. His father is a mercenary fighting against those forces, and that connection makes Ted a valuable prize for the rival commanders, each of whom wants to use him for their own ends. Caught between the schemes of these dangerous figures, Ted must find a way to survive a conflict far larger than he is. This first volume of the manga sets up a dark fantasy of vampires, demons and shifting loyalties.
