دوباره بگم؟ انیمه بهتر بود.
البته مانگاش اطلاعات بیشتر می داد، یعنی یه سری چیزا رو من وقتی مانگا رو خوندم درست متوجه شدم.
+قبول دارم که جناب هورو با دویست سیصد سال سن وقتی بچگونه رفتار می کرد خیلی ضایع بود، ولی خب بامزه م بود :))

So while I knew rather well what would happen in the first book of this series because I'd watched the anime, that was not the case with this book. I've only watched the first few episodes of season two, so I didn't really know how things would turn out.

As with the first book, I found this one had a nice flow to its language and interesting dialogue. I do wish we'd gotten a bit more character-growth, and a bit more show rather than tell, but I still found it a fun and enjoyable read.

I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series soon!

This novel is the merchant romance story I didn't know I wanted. The light novel format makes it very easy to read and follow, and has a simple style of linear narration where I am only required to pay attention to the problem at hand, and enjoy the banter between Holo and Lawrence.

Despite being an easy read, the author uses some economic concepts which seamlessly blends in with the story. The problem in this volume involves a successful haggling that leads to buying a higher volume of goods on credit. Our merchant friend Lawrence purchases sets of armour to profit on its increased demand in Ruvinheigen. Upon arrival, he quickly finds that the price of armour crashed due to a unforeseen cancellation of a military raid, and he is neck-deep in debt with only a couple of days to pay off. This cautionary tale of never to buy on credit leads to an interesting solution which is only made better with the inclusion of Holo.

I am looking forward to discovering what else Spice and Wolf has to offer.
