Personal Opinions

IShallRiseAgain

The original series is a pretty great cyberpunk action series. The characters are well developed and the setting is pretty interesting. Unfortunately, due to health problems the author was forced to end it early and it wasn't very good. Last Order retcons the original ending and continues the story. The new series is pretty great too, but suffers from an overly long tournament arc.
