It’s a thick and well organized profound look at the creation of the manga sensation. There are complete character biographies, all kinds of quotes, sketches and excerpt from the manga series, storyline summaries, numerous production notes, and much, much more. It has in depth interviews with Takeshi Obata (artist) and Tsugumi Ohba (writer), including commentaries throughout the book. The guidebook covers the origins of all 108 chapters of the manga and a special look at the final chapter. There is a special chapter that holds the 13 truths about the conclusion of the astonishing series, another where the creators answer specific questions, and a whole chapter devoted to Ryuk and the Death Note itself, covering various rules and tricks revealed throughout the series.

Any of these aspects, whether it be the exclusive comic panels and story, the intricate look at the fascinating series, or the reveals this book holds, are reason enough for Death Note fans to want to get their hands on this special volume 13. But it also has a full color cover page and a special “Death Note: True Name Card” for L on the inside cover. All together, it makes for an irresistible collector’s item.

IN SUMMARY:
Death Note 13 How to Read is a guideline and collectable that Death Note fans will have to have. It reveals many of the tricks and secrets within the series as well as offering exclusive content including four-panel comics and a special original Death Note story.

	This sounds like such a riveting series to watch out for. I have seen a couple of manga on this title, but not the anime, and would have to get a hold of it - it seems like a must judging from the review. Guest Report

	I read the entire series (and watched most of the episodes online) and found it to be my abesolute favorite!~ It's gripping, mysterious, dark and funny. It really gets your mind thinking about it, unlike other animes where you just watch people fight. Guest Report
