Really want to get back into Spice & Wolf someday, after 86 it's still my favorite light novel series. The first volume of the spin-off/sequel has also been sitting on my bookshelf for quite some time.
I read V1 of Torture Princess. Good stuff. The story greatly benefits from the style it's written in, really like the gothic atmosphere.
It's in the title but there was still more blood and torture than I expected. If you are fine with that kind of stuff then I def. recommend it
