Fullmetal Alchemist, Vol. 2, had all the right aspects that made me really like the first volume. However, I lost slight track of the events in the middle, things became a little hectic and hard to follow with the narrative jumping around a little with the introduction of new plots and lots of new characters.

Despite being slightly confused, I really enjoyed the storyline. This instalment turned a little darker, and had less of the fun, dry humour that was in the first instalment, which was a shame. Nevertheless, I will be continuing with the next few books at least as I want to see where the Eldric brothers journey goes.

Still lots to be had from this series I am certain off, and I quite easily devoured this in an hour!
