Book Review: Cage of Eden Volume 7


Review:  #383
Title:  Cage of Eden Volume 7
Series:  Cage of Eden - 7th volume
Author:  Yoshinobu Yamada
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  Okay, prepare yourself for a massive cringe-worthy moment in the opening scene of the first chapter.  Sengoku pretty much heroically aims to sacrifice himself for the rest of the group, it was such a cliché moment that you just want to look away.  I was wondering how the story was going to develop afterwards though with such a huge group now, but they’re forced on the move again which is pretty good.  The demonic mountain aspect isn’t the most original thing around but it does a good job of setting a mildly scary atmosphere.  The author just does it again and again, when you finally thought that the group was out and that they might encounter something less bad next thing, something even more scary (both to the characters and the reader) pops up.  I was also wondering how Mariya’s could still use his laptop after weeks of being stranded (would have ran out of battery), but the author explained it here.  There were also a few unfortunate deaths but that’s to be expected at this point in the story.
Rating:  6/10
