The various perspectives offered, often making it hard to figure out who the protagonists was, actually helped to make it a very compelling and addicting read. I did have issues whenever it switched to Miria and Isaac, who both consistently felt a bit too intrusive in ruining suspenseful and serious moments, but I think they two did help to make it a compelling read.The aspect of the chasing the immortality elixir and seeing who would end up with it in the end was a blast. I especially liked the conclusion and how it played out, especially with all the shocks about it and the point at which the big moment happened. Narita once again proved to have excellent writing and excellent surprises.I wonder how the series can continue, the ending ended everything so definitively.-Hardcover wise, excellent cover and excellent color pages. The art pages were nice too. I do wish there were more extras, only an afterward was a bit disappointing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive Translation, Amazing Story *by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2017* $10 is a bit pricey, especially for a Kindle e-book, but it *is* a translation. I'm just happy I can buy a legitimate copy in English.That said, I was impressed by the quality of the translation. The word choices seem appropriate to the characters and the era, and there aren't random Japanese phrases thrown in for lack of a direct translation (this is an unfortunate, yet common problem with translating Japanese to English).As for the story itself, I loved it. For people who have watched, or tried to watch, the anime--these novels make a whole lot more sense than the anime did. The anime jumped around in time and introduced way too many characters at once; this focuses on just one of the timelines covered by the anime.It's an interesting frame story, starting in 1st person and proceeding to tell the main story in 3rd person. The 1st person portion is set in modern times, while the main story is set in the 1930's. The characters are a bit over-the-top in the style of a light novel, but in a way that's humorous and grabs your attention. All in all, this is a really great read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Start to A Great Series! *by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016* I was a big fan of the Baccano anime and began reading the book series online with fan translations. I am so glad the books are now officially published in English. This first book is a solid start to the franchise but the story really gets rolling (pun intended) with the second book "The Grand Punk Railroad - Local".Still this introduction book into the Baccano universe involves the major players and tells a fun story about the immortality elixir. Seriously, if you want to read a story that feels like The Untouchables and has a cast of crazy characters interacting in surprising ways, you should give this story a try. From the perspective of story structure, I love the way Narita structures his stories and jumps between scenes and settings. He's a talented writer. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/107631441-baccano-vol-1-light-novel-the-rolling-bootlegs](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/107631441-baccano-vol-1-light-novel-the-rolling-bootlegs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
