Apollo started reading Spice & Wolf, Vol. 10 by Isuna Hasekura (Spice & Wolf, #10)
Matsuura's distinctive approach to retelling folktales works well here, giving a sympathetic but frightening feeling to the titular monster.

More Intrigue
3 stars
This second volume of Town of Strife was tenser and delivered in the intrigue and drama the first lacked. The ending now has me excited for the next installment after having cooled a bit on the series.

A Steady Installment
3 stars
This volume continued the story but felt inessential. Perhaps the second part of this story in the next volume will redeem it, but it didn't have the same intrigue as earlier volumes for me.

Revealing Side Stories
4 stars
This volume holds a novella and two short stories that reveal Holo's character in significant ways. The novella is the strongest story of the trio but having the final story be from Holo's perspective makes it special.
