I previously read and loved Urasawa's "Pluto," and was curious about his other series. Decided to give "Monster" a try, and once I started I couldn't put it down! I had little knowledge of the story going in (I didn't even know about the anime adaptation) and was so completely sucked into the story from the beginning. So far it's a mystery/suspense/medical thriller that takes place in Germany. I'm debating buying the whole series because I really want to read more and don't know if I can get a hold of the next volumes quickly enough!
