I'm afraid this suffers badly in comparison with the anime: Hasekura isn't nearly as good at conveying Lawrence & Holo's interactions as good animators + good seiyuu, and really, that's the heart of the story. If you can't get that perfect, then there's not much to it, and the irritating aspects of light novels come to the fore (very short, sketchy chapters, endings that feel almost rushed, etc).
