Purchased it at Barnes and Nobles for less than $15.00, was not in stock here. This is the second book in the series. I have purchased the first 10 books along with tons of art supplies for a relative. He will be busy the rest of the year!!! There's alot of detail in these books, makes me even think I could draw!

3.0 out of 5 stars It is not what it seems!!!!!, March 5, 2011

I bought this book for a friend who loves Manga but had never drawn anything in his life, same as me. I had chosen this book by reading reviews of it as of other books, and I can say that I was disappointed. It is a book for a beginner but not for someone who haven't ever drawn Manga. Explanations are minimal and there are no instruction for how to draw characters and how to draw with graphic pencils or with marker and which to use.
It is possible to learn from this book but if you haven't drawn before you better buy it on some other occasion.
My advice is not to buy books which you haven't seen in person or that Amazon itself doesn't offer images from inside of the book because everybody has different perception and has different abilities/needs.
I definitely won't ever again chose a book to buy by reading reviews!!!!
