-SynopsisLight Yagami is an ace student with great prospects - and he's bored out of his mind. But all that changes when he finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by a rouge Shinigami death God. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and now Light has vowed to use the power of the death note to rid the world of evil, using the name Kira. But when criminals begin dropping dead, the authorities send the legendary detective 'L' to track down the killer.
With L hot on his heels, will Light lose sight of his noble goal....or his life? Light tests the boundaries of the death note's powers as L and the police begin to close in. Luckily his father is the head of the Japanese National Police Agency and leaves vital information about the case lying around the house. With access to his father's files, Light can keep one step ahead of the authorities.
However, L seems to figure each of Kira's plans and quickly suspects Light to be the murderer, how can Light guard against enemies whose name he doesn't know?
-Review
'I seriously recommend this to anyone new to manga looking for a good introduction as well as hardened veterans, or anyone looking for a dark read. It was fantastic, brilliant story, and I would definitely read the whole set of books.'
-Rating
5/5
-Media
Accompanying the manga, is the anime series and the live action movie, using actors instead of animation, as is usually the case. All of which are extremely popular and Death Note now has it's own huge franchise around the world.
