Spy x Family, Vol. 10 (Spy x Family, #10)

by Tatsuya Endo

[Quirky Cat]

Summary:

Twilight is a master spy. By their nature, spies cannot be famous. But Twilight is as close as they come to being famous for his career. His latest assignment requires him to have the perfect family. While he's found the family, he's working on the perfect part...

We all guessed that Twilight's backstory was anything but puppies and rainbows. Now it's time to confirm that theory and learn the truth of how the man came to be. Will this provide any insight into his family's future?

Review:

Ow. My heart. Twilight's (aka Loid) backstory hurt, but it certainly wasn't surprising. In many ways, I feel like much of the revelation that followed is more or less what fans were waiting on. It certainly explains his dedication, among other things.

Yes, that does make this volume a bit darker than the rest. It's a good reminder that both partners (Loid and Yor) have pretty dark jobs; we generally see it in a happier light, thanks to little Anya (also, the overall tone of the series, but that's a different story).

While Loid's story took up a good chunk of this volume, the main plot progressed – thanks to Yor. That was a pleasant surprise. Now, we have all members of the family fully embroiled in the situation, though admittedly for different reasons. I really can't wait to see where this leads. Unfortunately, I think there might be a bit of a waitlist at my library. So wait, I must. Sigh.
