Under The Faraway Sky, An Instant Classic!~

Hi, I'd like to review this book Fullmetal Alchemist: Under the Faraway Sky. There are 2 Stories in one and they wonderfully follow the story of the popular Fullmetal Alchemist Manga and Anime series by Hiromu Arakawa. Makoto Inou writes and gets the feel of the Fullmetal World so wonderfully and brings the characters actions and emotions to life through the pages. The first story is where Ed (the main protagonist) meets one of his childhood friends Pitt. And the next is where Colonel Mustang, Maes Hughes, And Alex Louis Armstrong go camping and find a village full of children. The running jokes of the series will make anyone laugh in this book of fun, For young or old, For fans or people who haven't even heard of the Fullmetal world, This book is a delightfull add to anyone's collection.
