Castlevania


Sasakura, Kou, Ray Yoshimoto, and Jeremy Black. Castlevania. Vol. 1, Curse of Darkness. Los Angeles, CA: Tokyopop, 2008.

[Book cover credit: www.worldcat.org]

Genre: Graphic Novel/Manga

Annotation:
In this manga, Ted, a young boy, becomes invloved in Dracula's war on humanity. It is based on the Castlevania video game.

Booktalk Review:
This manga truly takes you to a dark and scary place where Count Dracula has a demon army and bad guys have spindley, pointy fingers. The artistic style and detail in the pictures successfully evoke the characters' nature and feelings in the reader. Read it for a bone-chilling experience.
