Berserk is a story that I've wanted to read for a very long time due to its notoriety.  I wish I hadn't waited so long.  While I find that Guts isn't lovable yet, I am dying to continue this story because of the masterful artwork.  Kentaro Muira was incredible and I am sadden by his passing.

Not for the faint of heart. 
Gripping, dark and yet couldn’t get enough. The first volume set up characters and major events well, without giving too much away - keeping the air of mystery and intrigue. 

The art is outstanding, and lives up to all of the hype it was given when it was recommended to me.

A must read.
