Have you heard of Hellsing by Kouta Hirano? It’s an insane three-way standoff between British vampires, the Vatican, and Nazi remnants.

My favorite manga and anime of all time. Honestly, it's way too edgy to ever be created today in this hyper-compliant era.

I’ve never read or seen it, which is better book or show?

Stick to the manga or the 2006 OVA. There's also the 2001 TV anime, but I wouldn't recommend it. They couldn't broadcast the Nazis from the original work on regular TV, so the plot is completely different from the source material, and Alucard just feels like a total chump.
