First off, J-Novel Club has been doing an amazing job with the English version of Tearmoon Empire, but for some reason this volume has a lot of typos. It didn't really take away the enjoyment of reading this book, it's just quite distracting at times.
After her visit to Sunkland, Mia continues her travels to the Equestrian Kingdom. As usual, she only has one objective in mind: food. The Equestrian Kingdom's butter that she had in Sunkland tasted SO good, and since Abel is meeting up with Malong there, she simply needs to tag along in order to get more of their butter. As it turns out, however, the situation in the Equestrian Kingdom is quite grave. Mia and Rafina get chased down by bandits as soon as they arrive, and the leader turns out to be the younger sister of the Fire Clan's chief.
Since vol. 10 is opening a new story arc, it introduces a lot of the Equestrian Kingdom's history as well as the Fire Clan's link to the Chaos Serpents. Not only it ties back to the bandit attack in Sunkland, but it also establishes connection to Abel and Remno. We haven't been in Remno since vol. 2, so it's nice to see more information about the kingdom. There's also a new development with Miabel, as well as Rafina. Previously in Sunkland, Rafina mentioned that she's into men who would carry her bridal-style. Well, she gets her wish granted here and thus a new ship was born.
As usual, the arc doesn't get resolved by the end of the book. This volume mainly focuses on the thirteen clans of the Equestrian Kingdom, as well as Mia and her friends trying their best to make them get along again. They ultimately agree to have a race for decision-making, and of course Mia herself volunteers to participate. This time not on a lightning bolt like Kuolan, but on a horse who is very much like herself.
Overall, this is a great installment that feels like it's building up to an exciting climax. It leaves me curious about so many things, so I'm going to start on vol. 11 right away.

A new translator does not distinguish herself, unfortunately, leading to lifeless prose littered with outright errors. For example, a character "breaches" a topic instead of "broaching" it. This novel claims on the copyright page that it has an editor; I wish she'd been more active.
In fairness, the new translator isn’t offered much to sink her teeth into, because the central conflict is frankly boring. Will the Kingdom of Equestria re-admit a clan they kicked out centuries ago for domesticating wolves? It would be nice if they did, I guess, but the actual stakes are extremely unclear—after all, the clans have been separated for centuries, and life’s just sort of gone on for everyone involved. To match this, very little actually *happens*; this is the talkiest volume so far, and very little of the talking is especially interesting. We do get a significant revelation—the identity of the Chaos Serpent’s leader is revealed—but it’s forced to play second fiddle to horse politics. And just when it seems as if something’s going to happen … novel ends. To be continued. Boo.

Princess Mia's Stomach Gets Her Into New Trouble
Even I have to admit I've had butter so light and creamy that I had to find out where it came from. But I'd never travel to a strange land, dodging bandits, wolves, ancient customs and...F.A.T. problems just to acquire it. But our intrepid Miss Mia is braver (or hungrier) than most anyone else in the world. So off she goes to meet new people, make new friends and...ride new horses?
Oh...and eat lots of new foods. Yep, we all knew she was going to the Equestrian Kingdom as soon as she tasted that butter! Another great volume!

This was a fun volume! I enjoyed reading about the Equestrian Kingdom and getting to know Lin Malong's family a bit, meeting exciting new characters like Ema, and learning a shocking secret about the Serpents. There was also nice character development for Miabel and Rafina. I look forward to the conclusion of this arc in book 11. 4 stars.

Ya sabia que sería Malong, desde que visitó a Rafina en la escuela me imagine que sería su posible interes amoroso, cada día Rafina se vuelve más adorable, solo espero que no le quiten la autoridad que transmite, por completo, y bueno a donde quiera que va la "Gran Sabia del Imperio" más se contagian del Miavid, ahora les toca a los Ecuestres

Es una de los mejores mangas que he leído este año. Es muy inocente y refrescante. La historia se centra en el renacimiento de Mia Luna Tearmoon princesa del imperio Tearmoon, cuyo personaje esta basado en la Reina Maria Antonieta, sin embargo esta es una princesa reformada, que después de morir en la guillotina y volver al pasado aprovecha esta segunda oportunidad para cambiar su destino y el de su país, con una mentalidad renovada se da cuenta que puede hacer nuevos amigos y aliados que nunca tuvo en su vida anterior, teniendo una vida mucha más rica. Con un toque de comedia y sátira este manga es una delicia. Excelente uso del humor negro!!
