A review by effy
Battle Royale: Remastered by Koushun Takami

5.0

I went into this book having previously read around a third of this story as well as watching the film some years ago but really I didn't know what to expect from how the story would play out.

For a book that is over 600 pages long, this book felt as though it read extremely quick and didn't really have any lulls in the narrative.

Initially I found it as little bit challenging to keep track of all of the characters as we do start with a class of 42 students however the story quickly narrows its focus to just a few distinct groups as it becomes easier to follow.
