Book Review: Death Note Vol. 2


Review:  #461
Title:  Death Note Vol. 2
Series:  Death Note - 2nd volume
Author:  Tsugumi Ohba
Read Before:  no
Comments:  Continuing with the momentum and building upon it, the second volume of Death Note is even better than the first.  The case of Kira (i.e. the person using the Death Note to kill people) develops and escalates.  So many things happen in this volume it’s not funny.  There are twists and turns in abundance and it was interesting to see Light panic and the risk that his plans were going to be unraveled by something he did not foresee.  While it may seem a bit contrived in how he learns the names of a particular person, it was still plausible and the suspense was a killer.  Unfortunately, like all good things, it ended before you wanted it to.
Rating:  7/10
