Death Note 1 - Thirteenth Reprinting - It

A shocking discovery sets in motion a dark game of power, justice, and fate.

Light Yagami is a brilliant yet cynical seventeen-year-old high school student. Life bores him, and the world, with its injustice, deeply disgusts him. Ryuk is a god of death who, like all his "colleagues," has led a life of emptiness and boredom for time immemorial. Seeking distraction, Ryuk decides to abandon his Death Note in the human world. It appears to be a simple notebook, but it possesses tremendous power, for writing a person's name in it signifies their death. After accidentally finding the Death Note and realizing its potential, Light decides to use it to change the world, while Ryuk watches him amused.
