Read this a while ago but still remember it was a very good book. It takes place in an alternate time line where Light is arrested before he kills L (I think I'm right) and L has to save some kids. Pretty sure L kept Light's watch too which was a nice detail.
While there was an interesting plot, it was so poorly written it made the book very tough to get through.
While that may just be a translation issue, it's still disappointing

Excellent book, an absolute page turner. I never wanted to put it down. It carrie’s forward in the true tradition of death note. A story sure to bring up emotions and philosophical thoughts on humanity and what it means to be human.

This book explores a "what-if" scenario with a unique take on L's character. New Wammy's kids add charm, and L's interactions with a young girl are a delightful surprise. Set in a post-Kira world, the story creates a captivatingly strange atmosphere. The ending ties everything together beautifully, referencing Near, the Yagami family, and the Task Force. A must-read for Death Note fans!

Just awful, a complete waste of time. I don't think it's merely the awkward translation, the plot and tropes were weak and lazy. A miniskirt lady who licks stiletto knives and flashes her panties? Puh-leaze. Now the original Death Note series is my favorite manga, and I've read Another Note twice, but this one takes the cake. Here's an example of just how lazy the writing is: My favorite lines in Another Note were about how L's back was bent from the burdens he had to carry and his mouth craved sweets to wash away the bitterness he had to taste. Guess which lines were repeated almost verbatim?
All the characters were flat and boring, unlovable, their motivations completely unbelievable, cartoonish villains... even L felt melodramatic and strange. I could go on forever. At least Another Note had Naomi and BB was a real creepy twist. This gets one star for the gorgeous cover and dust jacket. This is the kind of book you use as an attractive paperweight.
