Tokyo Ghoul, Tome 1 (Tokyo Ghoul, #1)
Sui Ishida
À Tokyo, sévissent des goules, monstres cannibales se dissimulant parmi les humains pour mieux s’en nourrir. Étudiant timide, Ken Kaneki est plus intéressé par la jolie fille qui partage ses goûts pour la lecture que par ces affaires sordides, jusqu’au jour où il se fait attaquer par l’une de ces fameuses créatures. Mortellement blessé, il survit grâce à la greffe des organes de son agresseur… Remis de son opération, il réalise peu à peu qu’il est devenu incapable de se nourrir comme avant et commence à ressentir un appétit suspect envers ses congénères. C’est le début d’une descente aux enfers pour Kaneki, devenu malgré lui un hybride mi-humain, mi-goule.

**I received an electronic copy from the publisher post-publication through NetGalley in exchange for honest review.**
Sui Ishida introduces Tokyo Ghoul in this first volume of a supernatural horror manga. Ken Kaneki has always been a bit of a wallflower and a bookworm. After an accident that results in an organ transplant, Kaneki begins to experience a strange hunger that will complicate his life considerably.
Slight warning for body horror and gore; considering there are ghoul characters, that is not at all unexpected.
This was absolutely a fun start to a series. I have been a fan of manga for a long time, but haven't felt so eager to continue a new-to-me series since Yu Yu Hakusho, Naruto, and Bleach. I definitely think this series will appeal to fans of any of those manga/anime or to fans of manga traditionally considered to be Shonen manga.
I look forward to continuing the series and am grateful to have received a review copy of this volume.
