For instance, while Alexia states in the beginning that she’s a preternatural, the implications don’t immediately come across. The art by REM is beautiful, but while their adaptation is faithful to Carriger’s original writings, the story at times goes by so quickly that the reader might miss important details. But, just like with the novel, I read the first few pages, and was immediately hooked on the manga edition. Since I had read the novel, I already had the look of these characters in my mind, so I wasn’t expecting to take to the manga art so quickly. The preternatural spinster has to now watch her back on all levels, while dealing with her growing feelings for the Alpha werewolf Lord Maccon, the head of BUR (the Bureau of Unnatural Registry). Little do they know that she’s what’s known as a preternatural she has no soul, and when she comes into contact with the supernatural, they lose their powers.Īfter Alexia is assaulted by a rogue vampire, known as a rove, an official investigation reveals that there’s trouble in the supernatural communities and Alexia is unwittingly at the center of it. People in this uptight English society find Alexia unusual because of her intelligence as well as her Italian physical features and seemingly hot-blooded temperament. Along with the supernatural and the regular humans are extraordinary people, like Alexia Tarabotti, an unmarried half-English half-Italian young woman who’s not only considered a spinster, but also a little bit odd. Soulless takes place in Victorian England in a world where vampires, werewolves, and ghosts live amongst humans.

1, was released today by Yen Press that’s a great adaptation for both fans of the series as well as manga enthusiasts.
While this first book came out in 2009, a manga version of the novel, Soulless: The Manga, Vol.
I had never heard of it, but two pages into the book’s online preview, I knew I’d love it. Last year, I wrote about a deal for the Kindle ebook for Soulless, the first book in Gail Carriger‘s The Parasol Protectorate series.
