savageknight 's review for:

V for Vendetta by Alan Moore
3.0

Yes, it's a fascinating book with sometimes engaging reading... but there's something overall that doesn't bring me the kind of satisfaction I'm looking for. Perhaps it was the conclusion itself -not that I'm a fan of the happily-ever-after. Maybe the last act build-up was too extended that it didn't pull me into the drama and I was simply waiting for it to end. Maybe I wanted to know more about V and who he was pre-Room V. Maybe it was because I read it now in 2008 and not in 1990....
