List of Spice and Wolf light novels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The cover of the first volume of the Spice and Wolf light novel series released by Dengeki Bunko.

Spice and Wolf is a Japanese light novel series written by Isuna Hasekura with accompanying illustrations drawn by Jū Ayakura. The series follows a traveling merchant, Kraft Lawrence, who peddles various goods from town to town to make a living in a stylized historical setting with European influences.[1] He meets a pagan wolf-deity girl named Holo who normally appears to be a fifteen-year-old girl, except for a wolf's tail and ears. Lawrence and Holo start traveling together, and as they travel, her wisdom helps increase his profits, but at the same time, her true nature draws unwanted attention from the church.

Originally, Hasekura entered the first novel in the series into ASCII Media Works' twelfth Dengeki Novel Prize in 2005 and the novel won the Silver Prize, placing third.[2] Seventeen volumes were published between February 10, 2006 and July 10, 2011 under ASCII Media Works' Dengeki Bunko imprint.[3] In 2016, an eighteenth book in the series was published, along with the start of a new spinoff series entitled Wolf on the Parchment, focusing on the characters Cole and Myuri. Yen Press licensed the light novels in September 2008 for distribution in English.[4] The first volume was released in December 2009, and a new volume was released every six months, but in 2013 was changed to being released every four months. The tagline for the novel is "Merchant Meats Spicy Wolf.", an example of Engrish. The author of the novels has commented that what "meats" in the tagline means is kept a secret, alluding to a possible intentional misspelling of "meets".[5]

Lawrence, Holo, and Col return to Lenos to prepare for their journey north as they await the delivery of the map to Yoitsu provided by Fran. While there, they unexpectedly meet Elsa (volume four) and her travelling companion Le Roi, a book merchant. Le Roi presents Lawrence with a profitable business proposition that will also serve to protect the lands where Yoitsu is located, but it will likely require Lawrence's early departure from Holo before they are able to reach Yoitsu together. Holo understands and encourages Lawrence to do the beneficial and practical thing, but Lawrence is gripped with disappointment and sadness even as he decides to accept the proposition. Seeing Lawrence's predicament, Elsa confesses her own conflicted interests between serving the church and wanting to marry Evan. But she then turns the tables on Lawrence demanding to know why he won't fight for what he truly wants - Holo. Inspired by Elsa, Lawrence decides to fight in the way he does best - a cunning scheme to fulfill his business obligation without having to travel apart from Holo. Failing to understand his actions taken to preserve their journey to Yoitsu, Holo broaches the "unspoken topic" and asks Lawrence why he wants to continue with her. Finally, their motivations become clear to each other and Holo confesses her true love for Lawrence.
