Book Reviews of Spirit Marked (Yaoi)
Book Review: A Fantasy Yaoi Manga With Substance
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this manga off amazon for both the fantasy elements of the plot synopsis and the yaoi content, and was more than pleasantly surprised at what I found. This manga is well worth the price, with a fast-paced storyline and beautiful illustrations on every page. Plus, a fantasy-genre yaoi! Spirit Marked has visually well-defined character designs -- a welcome treat in itself. The undercurrent of sensuality entangling the main characters(Tatsuki and Keo)was constantly engaging throughout the story, and never dull. Shogun's advancements were an equally fascinating dynamic woven into Spirit Marked. There is a fair amount of sex in this manga, and the scenes were well detailed and interesting without being exaggerated or falling into the realm of the bizarre or worse, of the tedious. I will, however, stress for inquiring minds that this is nowhere near hardcore yaoi, althrough a few scenes included are definately of the sort that you wouldn't want, say, dear old Grandma to see.
---Rating Breakdown---
Storyline: 4/5 (Althrough very well done, the story seemed to move alittle too quickly in places).
Yaoi Content: 4.5/5. Steamy scenes and character interactions. Good detail, but a qualm some readers might have with Spirit Marked is that while there are some pretty graphic scenes here, lower regions are rarely shown(as another character is usually blocking the view somehow, etc, not for lack of detail in the scenes).
Artwork: 5/5. I am very much in love with the illustrator's character designs. No complaints here!
Characters: 4.5/5(There could have been more character development, but then again, I'm definately one to nitpick.)
---
Clockwork Heart: This bonus story in the back of the manga is much more wobbly plotwise than the main attraction, but a fun (very quick) read nonetheless. As the previous reviewer mentioned, the ending felt slightly abrupt. My rating: 3/5
---
Spirit Marked became a new personal favorite of mine(in both the manga genres of yaoi or fantasy)the moment I began reading it. I'll definately be buying the author's next yaoi title upon its release.
