Last year, for the series' 10th anniversary, Japan got Spice And Wolf XVIII Spring Log, a collection of the S&W epilogue stories with new a novella about Lawrence and Holo settled after the end of their journey, running a hot spring inn, and Spice And Wolf New Theory: Wolf and Parchment, the story of their daughter, Myuri. (Yen Press announced these for North American release).

A second Wolf and Parchment was released in March. And, May 10th, it's time for S&W XIX: Spring Log II.

Like the first Spring Log, the new one collects stories from Dengeki Magazine, plus new material. This time, there's a labor shortage leading into the hot spring's busy season, prompting Lawrence to hire a newcomer. When she turns out to be another wolf god incarnation, the relationship becomes trying for Holo.
