It may slow down but its as fantastic as ever!
In volume 9 of Death Note the battle shifts with a real mind games going on. It also helps that you have a storywhich I admit aint like it used to be at the start. But its great and never really gives in and the deep story keeps getting more complex. The fight with Kira and M and N (Near and Mello) is getting heated and I still love this series. My only problems are that I like L much more than these two (M and N) but thats just my view. Just read this series and keep at it.

Light closes in on Mello
In this ninth volume of the excellent Death Note series, Light Yagami conceives a plan that could potentially halve his opposition at a stroke and bring his perfect world one step closer. He moves against Mello but not everything goes as planned and Light discovers that Near may be closer to the truth than is comfortable. Despite this Kira is making progress with the general public and this opens new possibilities for Light to manipulate.

Death Note continues to weave plans within plans, with all three of the main characters trying to out do each other in cunning. This volume does see some good twists and some surprising losses that could shake things up slightly. Overall Death Note remains a very well written and carefully plotted series that is a cut above some others that I have read but this second half of the series does seem rather less than it could be.
