As gripping has ever

if you're looking for a manga that is never boring, and always leaves you hungry for the next one, red river is definitely for you. Volume 19 is no different. Sure, there are some plot developments that come as a surprise, but it makes for good storytelling. For me, the action was well paced. I just wished that I hadn't reached the last page.

Great, but a little fast

I just recently finished Red River 19 and I really loved it, but it seemed so very fast. It starts out with Nakia having another royal fit at the fortune for Yuri and Kail, but a scheme reaches her from Urhi that the child Yuri carries will be dealt with. Yuri and her handmaids sail with Rusafa only to be set with misfortune as a sabateour aboard causes the ship to sink, and Yuri is swept overboard. Although Yuri is an excellent swimmer, stomach pains cause her to loose strength and focus. It is only by Rusafa's rescue that she is not lost. Word reaches Kail back in Hattusa that Yuri's ship is lost and Yuri is missing. The stress overwhelms Kail and he becomes ill, while Yuri battles for her life and the life of her child. All the while, Rameses wages an attack outside the city. The plot moves very quickly here and it seems that I was near the end too quickly. The reader will be left with a sorrow and a anticipation for the outcome for Yuri and Kail in a new dramatic twist of events.

A twist in the saga of Red River

I know that it would not be a bed of roses for Kail and Yuri's relation ship, but I did not expect the tragedy that happens for their family. I love how Chie Shinohara masterfully handles this delicate subject in both her writing and her illustrations, it is a testament to how wonderfully she has developed this series. I look forward to the next volume, to see how Yuri copes with the splendor of Egypt, she has adapted well to the grandeur of the Hittite Kingdom, now she is faced with Egypt and Rameses, who is more of a complicated and complex character than Kail Mursili. I look forward to the fireworks and the intrigue.

Interesting. Very Interesting

This series is one of my many favorites. (When it comes to manga.) It seems everyone in the Hittite empire knows that Kail and Yuri are expecting their first child. Nakia is none to pleased to hear the good news. However her henchman Uhri has a plan in mind for Yuri. Sabotage on the ship Yuri is traveling on. Rufasa find Yuri in the debris only to hear that yuri is worried about her baby. A ship carrying Egyptian soldiers picks them up out of the water and goes to Byblos. Their Rufasa finds out that Ramses is their as well. He asks for Ramses help. Yuri needs a doctor. Ramses has his surgeons come and take care of Yuri. They save Yuri's life but she has miscarried the baby. Ramses then takes Rufasa and Yuri to Egypt. Meanwhile, Kail seems to be ill at hearing about Yuri's dissappearance. Though Yuri worries about what Kail might think about the misscarriage, I think he already knows. Around the same time Yuri miscarries, Kail becomes sick. Also if you were a fan of Zanannza, Ursula, and/or Mali you'll be happy to know that they show up in this book. Ohhh I can't wait for book 20 to come out.
