In this thread, let's share with titles of the books which could interest Claymore's fans.

One of them, from my country so I know it well, is the book called "The Witcher".

Aparently, the first two books were arleady translated in english. It's a book about a race of Witchers, males which were genetically created to kill monsters. After effect of this process gives the Witcher cat eye and white hair (see any similarities).

Lot's of fights, sex, blood, alcohol, sarcasm and sex..with some addition of hardcore sex.

Also when it comes to manga, I would recommend Berserk

Full of gore, action, nudity and with well developed characters. Awesome fights and easy to understand plot.
